day 015

this day has flown by. it seems that there were less hours in this day than normal. i just woke up and ran home only a few hours ago, i swear i did.

i did alright today. i was able to knock out some work at the studio while the shoot was on vacation. stuff i would not have been able to get done while if we were in production.

i worked an image for emilitsa. it was a shot of the exterior of the restaurant that i took the other night.

i have printed all the fronts to my mailers and i am not starting on the backs.

today was rather mundane then. i swear i will get back to some more original and fun stuff. i think having my parents in town is sort of holding me back. i hate saying that because their presence is far from a burden, so i don't want it to sound negative. just sometime your priorities change, and right now my priority is spending time with me family. when they leave, my priority will go back to working creatively.

the thing that sucks about today; i had some ideas earlier in the day. i think they came to me while i was running. but now i can not remember them. i think i was conjuring up some more ways to play with layering on set, and not in photoshop. but i can't remember what the subject matter was.

i did have one idea for shooting food. i was going to head over to tu casa and just start popping off shots of the food right there in the restaurant when i order it. they have the fake wood table surfaces, green and red salsa in syrup table jars, cheap napkins, everything. i thought it might give it that Sauveur feel.

another good thing about today, i found myself yearning to shoot something and be creative. i felt a bit stale today. so maybe this blog thing forcing myself to create is actually training me to be productive every day. to the point that i have withdrawals if i skip a day. almost sounds like a vice in a sense. i could hang with that. gettin' my fix of putting some stupid idea on paper or on the puter.
