It seems that my website is having some problems. My font is dark and can’t be read on most of my posts but for some reason it’s still fine on the blog section. Strange. I’m trying to get someone to look at it and fix it for me since I’m pretty much technically illiterate.
Here’s the good news…I moved into my new house! Yay! That huge, tedious, expensive, exhausting process that I embarked on four months ago is finally over. I’m still in the painting, unpacking, organizing, cleaning stage but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I’ve dedicated the next two days to just getting everything in order so I can start to enjoy my new little abode.
Work gave me no downtime during the move. I have had a lot going on and it’s been so fun but I’m a little bit worn out. I’ve been fighting off a cold so I think after these next few days off I’ll be rested and back to my normal self. I also don’t do well when my surroundings are a mess so the next few days of orienting myself and my stuff will help out.
So Coleman is about wrapped up for the year. I was sad to see it end. We had so many great shoots this year with wonderful models and a fantastic crew. It was our second year all working together and we really gelled. I miss my little Coleman family already but it’s something to look forward to for next year. I thought the producing side of work would slow down a little but I just had another job for vaVesta, which was amazing. The owner of vaVesta is this fantastic woman with so much energy and enthusiasm. It was absolutely infectious and I loved working with her. The shoot was last week (the day after I moved) and it went smoothly. The end result was wonderful shots of our seven different models and I couldn’t be happier. We spent Tuesday going over the pictures and choosing our favorites to use in the brochure. It was a three week whirlwind of activity but I’m really pleased with the results and I think the owner was as well.
I was also working with a photographer on casting RTD shoots. We did two of them to be used by RTD as stock photos so they can pull from them for various ads they’re running. We have another shoot this Sunday as well, Bronco themed, so that will be fun. We probably won’t have any more until November, though, so that frees up a little bit of time for me as well.
Since my production side of things is starting to slow a bit, I’ve been able to focus more on my acting and modeling. I recently did a movie called La Maison, which was with a really fun cast and crew. I’ll post a picture below from the set.
I also did a shoot for a tote bag company, that picture is below as well.
Below are a couple of pictures from a Coleman soft cooler shoot I did a few weeks back. I might have posted these already, I can’t really remember so bear with me.
I did a mother/son themed shoot with Allen Birnbach that was fun. I think I must have gotten hit in the face with a soccer ball at least three times. I think we got some great shots, though.
Oh yes, and my Garmin ad is almost out so that’s posted below as well.
I’ve also been doing a couple of shoots for Gaiam (yoga) so that’s been fun. I love that company, they are a bunch of really fun people from what I’ve seen. I’m thrilled to have an opportunity to be involved.
That’s about it for now but I have a bunch of other stuff coming up in the next week or two. Hopefully I can get my website fixed and add more to the behind the scenes pages, etc, but this is what I have for now so it will have to do. Peace out.
