There are nights that I look at my own photos
and I can’t see beauty. All I can see is my own ugliness.
Probably I should stop listening to Gotye all the...
Cause it’s like… hurting me.

I lie to the camera.
1st shoot of Vancouver wrapped!
Shot with another first timer. She did great! Took about 600+ shots in just under 3 hours. Already edited 7, which is a higher ratio than normal. That’s a good sign. Nothing incredibly new, but I inched forward my style just a little bit and that’s not so bad. Just hope she approves a couple of shots so I can post!
In the meantime, the rain and solitude isn’t easy. But...
Setting-up some portraits in Vancouver.
Interested to see how this town is gonna inspire me. :)
Forget me.
Cause I’ll be training for the next 6 months and I hope to not just be me when I get back…But to be something more like what I want me to be.

And on the final day of work in 2011
I got preciously little done. Cooked 2 meals at my home. Didn’t say a word to another human being. In 10 days, I’ll move to Vancouver. I’m scared. Nervous. Excited.
And then I realized that sometimes, in the daring attempt to try and do something new, there are so many bridges to cross alone. So, that’s the way it’s gotta be for a while.

Canada bound
Heading to my favorite animation convention - The Ottawa International Animation Festival. After that, doing a week at the company’s headquarters. Looking forward to it! I love Canada and I love cartoons!

Dove into reference this week-end. Sat on the floor of a used bookstore in Burbank pouring over the work of master photographers. Read some inspirational bits from artists who struggled for years before taking a photo that stood the test of time.
Hell. I’ve only been at this for a year and half. I’m barely touching the surface of what’s possible. I’m learning at a fast...
It's a journey...right?
Lost my voice somehow. Lost my swagger. Things are shaky and changing. Not sure who’s around anymore that I can trust. Don’t know who trusts me. I’m not giving up. I’m still walking forward. Just a little doubtful these days of more than a few things. Hoping for more sunny days than gloomy ones as summer turns to fall.
