Escape Plan

Escaping the life I am currently living to live the life I would like to live. 

     This takes time, so much time, especially if I keep dilly dallying. Ideally I would just quit my job and risk poverty to do what I love full time. I'm not such a risk taker, although I admire those who are. I am a planner, I ease into things and that's okay too. I am saving money this summer and come September I will only work weekends freeing up loads of time, but still have a cushion. So it's the safe route, it still has the same destination.

PROJECTS, this is how I have been staying on track just constantly coming up with PROJECTS. 

   I set up a curtain rod on my living room wall to make a DIY backdrop. This is Alex, she's a beaut. She is my first subject I have been able to shoot in my make shift "studio". 

So blue wasn't the best choice of backdrop but I got the fabric at The Salvation Army and it will have it's uses eventually, maybe. It's all a learning process and I really hope Alex will do more modelling for me in the future. 

This is Vance. He's on a similar path to mine but one of those aforementioned 'risk takers.' 

I like working with Vance, he is a very conceptual artist and I am always happy to help make his visions come to life. You can see more of his work here: http://vancehedman.tumblr.com/

     Art and photography have always been so personal to me the idea of collaborating is new but quite a  revelation. There are more PROJECTS and collaborations to come. Big tings, big tings.
