Determination

I have now decided that I’m not going to ignore this blog.

From now on I’m going to update my blog as often as I can.

I have the iPhone app again and it’s time to get to business.

So I’ll be hearing from you all soon right?

I’m sorry

but i just love my iphone!!!!!!!!

What’s wrong here?!

Ok so for all of you who know me, you probably have noticed that fact that about 90% of my wardrobe is from Abercrombie and Fitch.

Nothing wrong with that right?

But what I don’t understand is why people hate that store so much.

It’s just a store…to some people (if you’re me it’s like a second home), but really, the vast majority of people that I know or talk to are so anti-Abercrombie that it gets seriously annoying.

Why can’t people just mind there own business and shut up about it. Like come on, I don’t go around trash talking other stores (ok I do sometimes but not out of hatred, only because what I’m criticizing is honestly horrific).

I don’t get it. Is it because they can’t afford it (it’s not even that expensive!), or they can’t fit into their clothes (don’t be jealous and ruin it for people who can…if you feel that insecure and whatnot then do something about it!), or do they think that people who shop there (like me ) are superficial and are “robots,” or do they believe that Abercrombie is only for skinny anorexic girls and gay guys, or are they just ignorant to different styles that don’t fit their “ideal look?”

I don’t understand it really, I’ve asked people before and they don’t know either.

So if any of you guys reading this DO hate A&F, then please tell me why.

I’m not going to stop wearing it or loving it (DUH!) but it’d make me see the other point of view from people.

Yeah

Sorry I just got fed up with people criticizing it (AND ME!)

So….yep…I’m done ranting now.

Haha

So this girl named…

TARA!! IS THE MOST AMAZING MODEL EVER!!

Out of all of the shoots i’ve ever done, this girl was the most natural model ever. She was really unsure and self concious at first. But after Jon and I started shooting her. It was like TA-DA!!!

some examples?:

Keep me busy people!!!!

Adam and Eve

I’ve always wanted to do some sort of “adam and eve-ish” kind of shoot. I wanted it to be in a foresty, woodsy, kind deserted “pristine” place (aka eden) but it’s LA so no such place exists. HEHE. However, after calling like a few people (like 13) asking around for places to shoot everyone suggested Griffith Park. I call them telling them that imma be shooting there and such. The ranger lady there was such a bitch. Basically, to keep things short, she used the excuse of me being “a student” that i can’t shoot there, she kept on referring to it as “her park” and “her property”. “I’m not going to let you and your little friends to have a generator on my park so that you can take pictures of each other.” w/e

we couldn’t shoot there

I came up with the idea to throw “adam and eve” from a beautiful, serene, pristine place with trees and all that shit, into a dark, grungy, dirty, alley at night. So sick.

Couldn’t do it in an alley at night

So we used my back yard patio thingy as a “set”

RESULT:

i can’t complain!!!!!!!
