This weekend is going to be a big one for me. I have a babyshower gig on Sunday which was in trouble of being rained out but as I was looking at the 10 forecast, it looks like Sunday will be rain free. If the weather holds up, the babyshower is still on. Really excited about shooting it but I'm a little more excited about the shoots I've scheduled for this weekend.
You see, I rented some gear for the babyshower gig and this would be my first time renting gear on my own. Since I've rented the gear, I had in mind to utilize them before I have to return the bad boys. Might as well you know? I've got the gear for the entire weekend! So I've scheduled a shoot with a friend on Saturday and quite possibly book some more shoots to cover the time before the actual babyshower on Sunday.
I have to be honest and say that I'm a little bit nervous about these shoots because these would be solely for my portfolio but more importantly, these sessions would be based on the ideas that I've come up with through the years. This would be the first time I'd be actually working on my ideas...as in, I'd be the one behind the camera as opposed to me being in front of the camera as my more minor ideas had so called for. Actually, many of my ideas are based on me being the subject which isn't narcissistic in essence. I just picture myself in scenes and frame them that way whenever a male body is concerned.
I don't know if I'm more nervous about utilizing another person to take the place of what I pictured to be myself or whether I'd be able to capture something that would do whatever I imagined some justice...
Eh. Anyway, this is going to be big for me and my photographic work and I can't wait for this weekend. I'm fairly confident all will go well. That I'd come up with some pretty cool stuff and I'm just over thinking it.
STOKED!
