A new year, a new camera, a new softbox and who knows what else 08 will bring. I haven't been on in a while and you can blame life, laziness, peanut butter sandwiches, whatever you want. I spent some great times in SF being with my close friend and re-calibrating my brain a bit. Its good to be back and hope to make it a...

Going home

I had a conversation one time with DanielK regarding what you do when you have to shoot someone you dont want to shoot. The advice is sound and this weekend I put it to use. The person who started this modeling agency happens to be be........well a transvestite...there is no fooling. She wanted me to shoot her in the studio. I did. I...

New photo

I haven't really done much in the big manipulation and layering of photos until now. Sure I have done cheesy instant message composites for friends and such, but this latest photo shoot I did was done with this very purpose in mind. Trying to photograph black and make it pop out against a.....black background, ain't easy. Then having to extract the pieces of...

Getting comfortable in my own skin:

Trial by fire is a hell of a thing. Constantly putting myself in situations I, as an introvert, hate being in really tests me and I can finally see growth, improvement, blah blah blah. I've spent a lot of time shadowing people I strive to be like. I try and take away as much as I can and I...

This was the weekend of photo shoots. Perhaps the people that know me will think the following line is such the broken record, but I learned a lot this weekend. I like learning, I think if I stop learning I will lose my passion for photography and so I am glad I learned a lot, got humbled, realized I have a long way to go...

Dear Diary,

So I just signed up for SG and thought I would throw down some initial stuff and possibly some things. First off, yes my name is Mel. I can't take credit for the user name and I could go into the story of how it came to be, but needless to say I thank Village Inn and Angela for the name.

I am...

Just a quick hello, newbie tongue

Oh, if you want to comment back to something someone posts in your blog, you have to respond back in THEIR blog so they can see what you say (I know, not quite how other places work or what you would typically think)

Also, have you applied to SGCO yet? You can click on me and see what groups I'm a part of to get to it.

Welcome aboard the pervert train!

Mel, go apply to SGCO.
