#1: This photo I found of the Duran Duran concert my buddy Lindze and I attended back in December. You can see us rockin out with our cameras in the front row. Definitely the best show of theirs I have seen (and I have seen quite a few!) Click on the link to see the photo all zoomed.
#2: These dinosaur stud earrings from Modcloth.com. This site is totally my favorite for unique fashion finds.
#3: The interface design and general themes in the video game Fallout 3. I am late on the boat, as this game has been out for a little while, but I just started playing it. Only a few hours in, I am mesmerized by the style of everything. It’s all post apocalyptic but has a retro 40s feel. It’s really a must see for game lovers and design lovers alike.
#4: My new lens: the Canon 50mm 1.4. It’s sooo nice and sharp. For the price, it’s a majorly good lens.
#5: Retro cartoons, in this case: Lady Lovelylocks. I was having a discussion with some online buddies about the awesome girlyness of this long forgotten cartoon of the 80s. I personally loved the nemesis Duchess Ravenwaves. I wanted to be her when I was a little girl.
#6: Thinkgeek.com’s April fool’s day items. They totally made me laugh. In particular, this sleeping bag that I really really wish was real!!

Oh, I’ve been such a bad blogger. I am certainly not used to keeping up with a blog and sometimes I totally forget I even have it. Well no more, I say! I’ve decided to add some new weekly blog features that will ensure that I keep updating as much as humanly possible in between work. Of course the photoshoots will remain the feature presentation of this blog, but a little personal fun can’t hurt! So here’s the new lineup:

The Photo archive - In this category, I will dig deep into the depths of my hard drive and pull out a photo that hasn’t been seen in a while (or maybe not at all!) Some of them may be more recent, some may be suuuuuper old. So you will see my skill and style differences between the years.

The Retouch Remix - Sometimes I like to get super creative with my photos and try a new photoshop technique I haven’t tried before. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, but it can be fun to see the results. I will post the original photo and then the creative retouch.

The Week in Photos - This will be random photos from my weekly life. Totally random things that interest me.

Things I Love - This will be the things I am currently loving this week. Food, music, shows, clothes, whatever!!

I’ll be starting these features on Monday so check back this coming week! Make sure I keep up with it and feel free to nudge me if I don’t, cause I totally deserve it for being lazy last month!
