Fwends

I know some of my lovely friends see my photos and think what in the name of dog makes her think that this looks nice. I know because they are kind enough to tell me, much like those nights when I thought a boob tube and a pair of superbaggies were appropriate attire for a night out and I was told no. Just no. I may have worn them anyway and thought I looked smashing (and yes, those smashing photos have come back to haunt me). Everyone needs at least one person to tell them that they are not quite living up to their full potential and I think it’s wise to surround myself with that sort of person.

I created this website mainly due to peer pressure from my friends but also because I neither know, nor care, how the Cloud works. I figured if my computer and backups of all my photos go up in flames or get stolen then at least the more polished version of my photography would still exist somewhere. I am well aware that there would be a lot of relieved people if that were to happen as I have so many incriminating photos in my collection. Yes, I am that really annoying person who brings their camera everywhere. While I love to look at, and admire, portrait photography I don’t really like it myself. The only reason I have so many incriminating photos of friends is because they are an entertaining and photogenic (if photogenic means amazingly ridiculous looking) bunch of coconuts.

I learned a lot about technology and nothing about photography in the process of creating this site and actually quite enjoyed the lengthy process of self-doubt, self-deprecation and fear of what others might think. Now that’s all behind me (lurking and waiting for negative feedback), I’m pretty happy that I’ve done it and expect America’s Next Top Model to come knocking begging me to be their next Noted Fashion Photographer in the near future.
