Soldering + me = burned hand

My friend and Photosoup contributor Brian G. took this shot of me just before I almost burned my finger off with a soldering iron last week. I think Brian was just happy to be taking pictures with a real camera — he got a DSLR. I just hope he's not there to record my next disaster.

Mike G. on the Mic

Here's a short video of one of my closest friends (and college roommate) Mike Gebora, as he shares some of his rhythmic skills during a poetry night in Valdosta recently. You didn't have anything to worry about kid, you tore it up.

Going through the archives

Since I got a new computer last week (which can actually do work at a human pace — instead of a snail's), I've been going through some of my old photos. A couple of years ago, I tried my hand at shooting recreation games and selling prints to parents. Needless to say, I would've gone hungry had that been my only source of income. But I did make a few frames that I liked. I actually thought I lost these when my old laptop was stolen, but I found some of them hidden on an old hard drive. Anyways, I really liked this photo. I don't even know why this little guy was frustrated, but his body language speaks volumes. That's what's so great about kids — their honesty.

Dustin and Julie

Here's two of my favorite photos from an engagement shoot on Sunday of Dustin and Julie. I took them at Dustin's grandmother's house, which is right across the street from my parents' house.
