007 // update

This summer has been flying by. I'm still photographing raves every couple weekends, and will potentially be photograping WEMF August 12th-14th up in Madawaska, Canada. It was amazing when we went in 2008, and now that I know more about my camera and party photos in general, I really hope I'll be able to photograph it again.

I saw one of my favorite bands last month, and snuck in my camera to take some photos. It was an amazing concert, and I highly recommend Against Me! in concert.

 

The photo on the left is from the Against Me! concert, while the one on the right is just a random photo from a walk I took with some friends. The sun was setting, so they started playing with their poi, and of course I couldn't resist taking some photos. They came out decent, but I really need to start bringing my tripod in my car when I go see people.

I want to experiment way more with light painting. I'm not entirely sure why, but I love photographing light. Its one reason I have so much fun photographing raves: all the crazy and varied lights. My final project for Intermediate Photo last time was about light, specifically street lights on campus and how UConn looks like a different world at night.

I shot this same set up with 35mm black & white and it printed pretty well. I need to try it with some high ISO film and print it large, so my next order will probably involve the Ilford ISO 3200 and some 11x14 paper.

In other news, I'll be trying to devote some time to this site this coming week. I'm on Spring Break from school and this needs to be functional before April.

Everything has been so hectic, I've been neglecting both this and my Flickr site. New year, new school semester, new leaf and all that.

  

Classes start again on the Jan 18th, but I'll be spending the days up to that working on this and hopefully making it useable.

I love photographing people when they don't realize I'm there. When they aren't faking anything. When they're real.

'Technolust' was freaking amazing. I expected it to be good, but god DAMN was it good. The DJ's were fabulous, and I finally saw some people I've been friends with for awhile :)

These are the kinds of things I notice at parties.

The nice light on things.

Or the slightly out of place things, that a non-raver would be confused by.

I like capturing the little things for people.
