Visitors


Bev is in town so a family dinner with early Easter egg hunt is in order.
(I just wish I didn't have such a bad headache today.)

Dumpster Diving



Vegas Style!

Twenty red roses, two pink ones - and whatever those purple things are.  Good find.
(helps when the dumpster you're diving into is that of the florist next door to your studio)

"Duh Thinker" 
By Lexa

Lexa and Brady took this picture Saturday and since I was oblivious to my blogging responsibilities...
...It's mine now!

Also, I am posting this on Monday. Saturday is a complete blur to me. I know I had a headache all day long but I was trying to push through it. I got my hair done...the proof is on my head...but I don't remember much. I kept thinking that caffeine would help and I should grab a Mt. Dew... (I found 5 soda cans in my room today.)

Dog Dayz



Today was the first official "Dog Dayz" portrait session for The Jonesz (due to bad timing, branding and advertising, it didn't go really well) but we got some great shots of Chuck, the Schnoodles and a couple of friends dogs.

(yea, I didn't take this photo either - but I was tossing the treats to get their attention, so that counts right? Expect this a lot when I'm living with other photographers and working with them all day everyday.)

More pictures from the day can be seen here: http://thejonesz.zenfolio.com/f921106419

PS I think blogger is prejiduce.  I tried FIVE times, but it wouldn't let me save/publish my post with the title written in Spanish.  Even without the upside down question mark and the accent - when I wrote it in English, it saved just fine.  Weird.

Green



I've never been much of a holiday person and I never participate. Realized after I got to the studio that I was wearing my favorite green earrings. But I figured it was okay because they were mostly obstructed by hair.

Winchester Skate Team



Had a group of at-risk-youth come into SPACE today to talk to our current artist about his background and his influences that have helped him create his art.  It's an amazing group that is trying hard to overcome their circumstances through skateboarding and art.  Check out the post I did on the SPACE blog.
http://spacestudio.wordpress.com/2011/03/14/the-winchester-skate-team/
We're going down to their event next Saturday to do video and stills to put together a promo/press video for them.  It's going to be a great opportunity to give back.

Eldorado Dry Lake



Today I was on location for a photo shoot.  The shoot was for Warner Brothers music label.  They were photographing some rapper named Rick Ross (had to look him up on YouTube before he got there - not impressed). But I wasn't really "working" this shoot.  I was the Site Rep which means I was paid a hefty sum to sit in my car and play with my new iPhone (did I mention I lost my phone Monday night and had to get a new one so I took the leap and upgraded to the iPhone 4?) make sure they didn't damage the lake bed and run a couple of errands for the photographers when they needed supplies.  Not a bad day at all.

It's Super



On our way to UNLV for Ami's campus tour we saw a bird ... no, a plane. No! Superman! waiting at a crosswalk.  But we decided that he must be an impostor because the real Superman would have just flown across the street.  Now THAT would have been worth rolling the window down for (sorry it's so dirty - I'll get to a carwash soon!).

Moving



I'm moving to Vegas.  The car was packed as tight as possible and my bike was redneck strapped to the luggage rack.  There was a blizzard and we almost died.  Seriously.  Hit ice that almost made me hit a cop car and then slid us into the median.
PS We didn't die.

We got this tshirt for my brother for his birthday today.  He's an addict.  And not even close to a Doctor.

**Disclaimer: I didn't actually take this picture - I found it online. I had planned on taking one but my mom wrapped the shirt before I got a chance and I haven't seen Scott since we gave it to him to get a picture of him in the shirt.  Maybe another day.

Jammies



At 5:30 (note the light through the window) he said to me, "I'm going to go put on my jammies.  These are my cwose (clothes)" However, he was wearing a pair of sweatpants and no shirt. He came back wearing those pictured, with a pair of zipped footed pjs over top. And then came out the hat, gloves and slippers.  Adorable.
