So I recently took a technological step forward and upgraded my phone to a Blackberry Curve. Said Blackberry has kept me more connected via internet than ever, so it is not too much of a surprise that I recently started another blog on tumblr to house a different kind of photos. Here's the rundown:
The End of June brings me back to southwest Illinois to photograph Cornerstone Festival. I have been here for just over 24 hours and am completely exhausted already (not to mention hungry and sunburnt). I will see what I can do to post on here as the fest goes on, but be on the lookout for my photos in the "Live Coverage" section of the Cornerstone website.
In spite of the amount of "work" (the quotation marks are important here) I have to do here, the decreasing number of bands I care to see, and the lack of company, cornerstone remains one of my favorite times of the year.
I realize today is Thursday, really I do. And while I don't think there were too many people holding their breath for a photo post yesterday, I'll just say that when it came down to blogging or riding my skateboard, I chose the latter More to come
..And you know what that means PHOTO DAY! BLAISE WAGENSOMER with a nollie BS Lip in Sherman Oaks, California from my last trip out there. The colors got a little sucked out in uploading, but it'll do. Sorry for the wait, Blaise! I just remembered I think I heard Blaise would be in town this week, if that's the case give me a call!
I've been slacking on updating, and the posts have admittedly been rather unphotographic, particularly considering the subtitle to this blog is "A photographic supplement". Therefore, I am instituting PhotoDayWednesday, because while they may not be the best, my photos are inarguably more interesting than my life as of late. SO HERE GOES:
ELY PHILLIPS comin through with the crailslide at Wilson This is the photo that was run with his little interview last month in FTK Mag, so in case you already saw that, to be fair I'll throw in another one
THOMAS CHRPA threw down for this photo to help me finish my studio final. The ollie wasNOT a land, but as far as my final goes, he really came through in a pinch for me.
so there you have it, I'll do my best to keep up with PhotoDayWednesday, and maybe even get some photos in in between as well. So, what do you say, DO YOU LIKE IT?
I'm a photographer born and raised in Chicago, living and working in Southern California. I love taking photos of skateboarding as much as I love riding one myself.
