June 27th 2008 – My Heart Beats for Her

Wow, today was a lot better, but still very busy. Maybe I’m becoming used to this kind of schedule.

Today I finished up a bunch of projects, shot and edited a new spot and tied up all my lose ends… including getting paid for all these projects I’ve had lately. That’s really helpful for taking my girl on our first honeymoon. I really don’t want to say no to whatever she wants to do. She’s put up with me for 15 years… I feel I owe her big at this point.

But there’s also a little more to this photo. I won’t say too much cause I don’t know how much I’m supposed to keep confidential at this stage, but a local agency was inspired by a few of my ideas and had me in today to discuss an advertising campaign for a company and this was part of an idea that we came up with. I needed an idea for my 365 anyway and decided to shoot this for them so they would have something to bring the company next week. I can’t wait to see whether it’s sells or not. It would be a LOT of fun to do.

Tonight I got a few toys to reward myself for all the sleepless nights. Two of them were on extreme discount. I got a Force FX Lightsaber for Clarissa and I for only a piece… marked down from and I got a really cool Superman Returns coffee table book for .

Strobist info: 30 sec exposure with blue and red gelled flashlights for the heart/beat and a Canon 430ex with a Gary Fong Lightsphere aimed at the wall behind me at 1/16th power.
