finally was able to take some pictures of diana when we went to the park. They turned out really well and were taken as the sun was going down. I'm really excited about my 50mm that I've been using more frequently, and have been getting some really good results out of.

tony told me some news yesterday.
I was also shooting Tiesto at Club Epic last night for the 612.co, which was extremely awesome, but ended up getting kicked out after we learned he brought his own security :P

Diana leaves in a week and a half, and i'm still not too sure what i'll be doing without her. We still have a couple fun days planned together, so at least we will be able to make it count.

Summer is going great so far, and living in my new house is going great.

finally

it's here.

movin' in

I've been busy moving into my new house the past week, but have managed to keep going on stuff. Projects to still be finished include Energy Park Drive, Take Cover, Germany, Now & Forever, and Get Young/Gloria show.

Dee leaves in a month, so spending time with her right now is my bigger priority.

My new house is awesome, and I went and bought all new furniture for it. I also bought my macpro, which i've been waiting for for months. Move in photos i'll put up soon.

It's a stormy week here in mn.

Home

I have just returned back to my home here in Minnesota a few days ago after being in Germany for the past two weeks. I was there with my parents visiting my exchange family I stayed with a few years ago. We see each other every year and switch off coming to stay with one another. This year's trip was highlighted by getting to know my german brother a lot better, spending time with his parents, meeting many new people and visiting the ones I hadn't seen in awhile. The parents also made a separate trip to austria while Daniel and I hung out at home for 1/2 the week.

here's only a few pictures out of hundreds:








While I was there I also had some work to finish. Here are some from my shoot with Emiliana a few weeks ago:









I was finally able to see Diana last night and am planning on spending as much time with her before she leaves me for Argentina for a month. I'm also moving into a new house this week, getting back to work and already have a ton of shoots planned for the next few months, and I'm in the planning process of touring with my friends in Sing It Loud and Get Young.

Thank God summer is here.

2 weeks

just under two weeks until i'm in Germany, and i'll be done with finals/school.
planning for dee's birthday and working on some pictures for this last week.

a set from a shoot with Sing It Loud back in February:

first

Just shot Gloria last week.

It is now the first of May, meaning it is 18 months I've been with Diana, we're so stoked about it.

I'm beginning this blog because my last one failed, and I need a way to let people know what i'm up to...that is, if they want to.

I'm finishing up school in two weeks at which point i'll be leaving for Germany until the end of May to go visit family and see the country again for the first time since '05. Before I leave i'll be doing shoots for Emiliana and Energy Park Drive and lots of studying for finals week. I also have a new house to move into.

I'll update at the end of the week.
