This one is for Craig - but also super interesting so everyone should still watch.

If you are a member of Flickr, you might be familiar with these videos the SmugMug puts out about photographers. This one in particular is about a Street Photographer, but a newer one. Newer to photography, newer to street photography and simply explains how he got started, what he looks for and ...

I know I'm not in focus

But I love it anyway.

It was dark, I was moving. This was a mistake. 

But again, I love it. 

So, from tonight. Enjoy.

When Faye does Outfit/Lifestyle pics....

She looks pissed because it's hot, she's uncomfortable and she wonders why she's even wearing clothes....

Hahaha

So I want to start a new blog, a lifestyle blog where I talk about all sorts of things. For that, I need photos because, I don't have any nice ones with clothes on. Ha!&nbs...

I NEED HELP! ALL HANDS ON DECK!

Hello!

Ok!

So I am making an art site. In my last video I told you how lost I was with it. I have 17 years of work that I somehow need to organize and show. So I'm looking for themes in my work or narratives that I can flush out, make sets of and try to write intelligently about in or...

offCAMERA w Constance Wu - Where I Find Self Worth

This was a really good little clip about Constance talking about where she finds self worth as a creative and things that she did worry about and still worries about today. I think it's a really interesting thing to think about. 

Give it a watch if you have some extra time.

This was a cute read. Anyone else totally missing the 90s lately?

What Makes You Native by Maria Sturm

Hey guys, 

Here's an article I found today on photographer Maria Sturm that I thought was REALLY interesting. I connected easily to this article because I'm Metis. My mom's side is British and I obviously look like my mom - very fair, freckles etc but my dad's side is Native American (...

Photographer Rudolf Schwarzkogler

I recently found the work of Rudolf Schwarzkogler and I'm really into it. I don't want to say too much but would rather you take a look and let me know what you think or see when you look at his work.

I thought this look at Melania Trump's Photography/Life thru Photography was really interesting.

Want to check out the photography that'll be exhibited at Frieze London Art Fair?

Check the link in the bio! 

There are older works by Marina Abramovic and Cindy Sherman (a fav of mine). As well as a couple new photographers that I really like Zanele Muholi and Rudolf Schwarzkogler. I'm going to link Rudolf's work separately tomorrow because it's great.

“People think that they have to make life long choices but in reality they don’t.” - GaryVee

 

Gary Vee is an entrepreneur and is highly active across social media platforms for his talks on business and marketing. One of the people I currently work with loves him and it took me watching just one of his videos to understand why. 

My fav thing that Gary does are thes...

Photographer Robert Frank died this year.

There are 20 photographs and projects that he was known for. What do you see when you look through them? Does his work leave you with a specific feeling?

Sharing a Forever Fav

I was on YouTube this morning because I was schoolin the girls at work in the ways of FKA Twigs and this popped up on the side and I listened to it three times in a row because it's just SO FUCKING GOOD.

Back on track!

My birthday just passed and this year it really screwed with my head. 

My birthday isn't a big deal normally because I'm not "popular". I'm kinda low key and I'm also very people picky. Don't get me wrong I'm welcoming and polite when meeting strangers, if you bring me somewhere I'll w...

I found home. (Right where I started.)

I was born in a very small town. It used to be primarily built on farms but when they started to fail large parts of land were sold to companies to build factories. If you don’t own a small business of which there are many then you work in a factory. 

Here we made wedding dresses by ...

A Lesson from Mooji

 

The universe is seriously plotting you guys. All the time!

A part of Self Care that I'm VERY bad at....

 

I am very bad at food. 

Seriously.

I feel as though I’m bad at food in two completely separate ways though:

1. I don’t eat enough.

I get so happy and excited about projects and working and creating things that I often forget to eat. I don’t pre-plan...

The microphone for my camera got here yesterday!!

I signed the lease for the other half of my office and am getting the additional furniture moved out so I can set up a standing video space!

WAIIIIIIIIT - Do we actually believe this stuff?

This is going to sound dumb!

I'm still new to spirituality and belief in the "universe" (meaning like, the universe instead of god, we are all connected type universe - not planets, I know those were always there).

Sometimes it's just not your day.

Day hasn't gone well. Which sucks because I was having a very good run there!! I feel as though I may have knocked myself out of my comfy little bubble by driving to Detroit and bringing old stuff back into my life. Like some of the old bad Texas juju was in there as well.

Just went to buy flowers randomly and was talking to the lady at the grocery store. I wanted multiple bunches and I really only wanted orange but I'd take orange and yellow if needed.

And she was trying to upsell me to fresher flowers that would last longer. Which I get but I was like no no...

How craving attention makes you less creative.

I do this thing lately where I want new ideas, inspiration and knowledge so I use my lunch breaks to watch or read something that is of interest to me. I think since starting about 2 months ago its had a really positive effect on my life. 

It got me thinking about what I spend my time ...

Your "true self" is always the key it seems.

 

I’m probably the worst for myself creatively because I get over excited. 

Lately I have SO MANY IDEAS and I want to do EVERYTHING. I want to learn everything and I wish I worked 100x faster than I do because I just want to create everything I have in my head. Only it doe...
