YEAH! I’m drugged and (almost) ready to enjoy this Superbowl. Unfortunately drugs and liquor/beer don’t mix, so I’ll stick to juice/water/soda. I’m in favor of the Colts, but I respect the Saints, so if either team wins, I’ll be happy. Who Dat?!?
P.S. I would still kill to be on the field wearing the red Canon vest indicating that I’m one of many photographers! 
As I muster up some energy while being under the weather, survey says….She is!
Name: Charlyn aka LTA aka Blasian and probably a bunch of other nicknames her friends have for her…lol. Here’s a shoot I took from Boomn’s shoot because I thought it was cute, like an ad campaign or something.

**excuse the delayed post. Was busy, then to make matters worse, I got sick, and I’m still sick. Actually able to sit in front of a monitor for more than 5 minutes to edit photos.

Finally…Mr. Boomn Productionz, producer extraordinaire finally finds time to shoot with me before he drops his next mixtape. Good times, good peoples, and pretty girls.
He Came Up, Put His Life On The Line....

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah (Young Jeezy voice).
Unfortunately I’m sick as sh!t. Talk about bad timing…geez. But I’m alive and thankful for all things and blessings received.
You might see a familiar face, click on the image below. YESSSIR!!
Where Are They Now? Christine Juarbe.
If you can recall, I did a shoot with Ms. Juarbe back in October 2009, with hair & makeup done by Melinda Martinez, and the Vimeo video footage captured and edited by Lexi Ritsch.

As things are picking up in 2010, I linked up with Melinda Martinez, and another makeup artist Jacqueline Sheperd, to shoot some “glamour” shots with Jaycie Doltman. A lil TFCD as some would call it. It was a fun shoot, good times, good music, job well done ladies! Hair & makeup – Fierce! Lol

Reminds me of the "Got Milk" ads, just minus the milkstache 
So, if you don’t know who he is, you’ve either been under a rock, or in a deep deep hole somewhere lol. He’s the singer of the hit record “Whatcha Say” and I was able to meet up with him as the folks from New Music Director were filming an interview and a couple of radio drops.
Pretty cool to see how things look behind the scenes for TV/media production. Shout out to Melinda, Tony, and the others that were present!
Peace.

So I came up with the idea on Wednesday to post my top/favorite 9 shots of 2009. I’ve done a lot of shoots, and it’s only right that I choose and display my favorites. Some tough choices because I have so many that I like, but ere they are, in no particular order:
Kim
Nevaeh Jeans Company
Christine Juarbe
See who else is on this little list after the jump!!
Another friend of mine who wanted to shoot (in general) for a long time. I got the call last week, and the shoot was slated for today….last day of 2009. Told her she had to make it count!! She had a couple of outfits, and her makeup was done by one of the homies from BKBOYEEZ (what up Fabid!). He put in work on the makeup…damn near flawless…wow!
Here’s one of the photos Ms. Irons immediately wanted to post on her Facebook page as a default pic. I think it’s pretty dope! She definitely nailed several shots. More to come this weekend. Happy New Year all!!

So MissKPey and I have been trying to shoot for a VERY VERY long time. We were introduced some time ago by my friend C. James, but a shoot never happened. So today was the day. And more importantly, it was a special day….MissKPey’s birthday! So Happy Birthday (again)!!
Pressed for time, we quickly knocked out 3 looks…for a first timer, she was pretty good and has some KING Magazine-like photos to show for it. Shout out to Jennifer of Pink Eye Beauty on the makeup…you passed your interview . I’ll definitely be working with them again, fellow businessmen are always looking for models and makeup artists, and two connects were made today!

okay fellas…pick ya jaw up now! Lol.
So while waiting to meet up with my pretty lady friend from out of town for a little food and a little catching up, I took a couple of photos with the point & shoot. I almost brought out the SLR, but at the last minute, changed my mind.
The Arranged Rendezvous Spot
Pedestrian traffic was out of this world!

Ooooh! Ahhhhh!
A few more after the jump (when she arrives at the rendezvous)!! Read more
I’m a little late, but Merry Christmas to all. Hope that everyone enjoyed their Christmas! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my site. Your visits and support near and far are greatly appreciated. Bigger things to come in 2010! Have a safe & prosperous new year!!
Seems to be a problem with Blackberry devices today. BBM (Blackberry Messenger) isn’t working for folks and I think they’re losing their minds from device withdrawal. It’s crazy!
Sorry folks, I’ve had an iPhone since July, and my Blackberry (for work), sits quietly on my desk. I’M GOOD!
My Old 8320 Curve, shot February 2009
It snowed A LOT last night, it was still coming down at 1:00am ET. It looks like 3-6 inches, but I’ll find out later when I step out!
The young homie is now age 5! My how times flies! I took photos of him and his parents @boomn @classi_kira back in 2007 (when he was 3, duh!), and it just amazes me that you can blink and two years will fly by. I have a 3-yr old daughter, who will be 4 in March, and I catch myself in disbelief and thinking wow, I was just holding her; etc.
HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY!!
Yesterday, the day j.o.b. held our Holiday Party @ Quo (West 28th Street, New York City). Lots of staff came out and had a good time. Decent food & music, top shelf liquor, and Beatles Rockband! I didn’t play though.
The picture below was taken by me with my Canon point & shoot. Saw the shot, timed the lighting pattern, and took the shot!!
All and all, everyone had a good time!!
So the bosses over at Neveah Jeans Company gave me a shoutout also coined a new term. Interesting! Check it out. (click the pic)
Grustling...We Salute You
THIS JUST IN!
“We looked at the pictures and they are awesome! Your eye, creativity and attention speak clearly through the images. Your timing is perfect and you have captured some very special moments that can never be re-created. We thank you so much Mike.”
