Team Sexy aGo Go

I know I know, I haven’t blogged in a while, but to be truthful its because i wanted to leave that identity kitchen blog up long enough for the folks at identity kitchen to see it. It turns out people nominated themselves and made videos and did all this crazy effort to get into the finals, and as for me i just crossed my fingers and hoped my nomination got it. I still don’t know since they haven’t announced it yet but from seeing how excited some other people were, (trust i am too though) it doesnt look good. So with that being said, like many things in my life, lets move on. :)

This last Saturday a group of girls rallied by my sister in law Ashling, asked me to shoot them, it reminded me of the days when you use to go to photomakers, but in my studio, its a lot more chill, relaxed, safe, fun, comfortable, and away from the public. I mean look at these pictures, you can tell they were so fun and interesting that photomakers would never be able to pull something like that off. With that being said here are a couple of the pics these girls took, i loved their theme idea, especially as they rack jacked some of my ties. I knew those things would come in handy some day :) The name came from when i asked Ash what the CD title should be called when i burned their images, she thus said Team Sexy Agogo… which i acronymed Team SAGG! all in all it was a great shoot and a whole lot of fun. happy viewing!

Identity Kitchen Competition

So I’m going to write about something that I may not even win, I actually may be jinxing myself with this blog, but I really have to write about it and get it off my chest.

You see last week my internship boss KrisD Mauga submitted nomination for me for this huge competition on something that I blogged about a couple weeks back if any of your remember, it’s called Identity Kitchen. I’ve thoroughly stalked the site and have fell in love with their work, amazingly the latest competition they’re holding is for budding 1st year photographers. WELL! isn’t that just perfect? the guy who finally decided to change careers and move into photography, who just gave birth to my company Justinelement Photography this last December, would be the perfect candidate?! right?

OK well I dont know how good or bad my chances are, and i probably shouldnt get my hopes up, but it’d be amazing to actually win something like this after my first couple months in business. I’ve worked so hard tirelessly day and night for the past couple months to actually do something in my life with photography, (because as you know theres no turning back), that it would be such a blessing to win a competition, especially for identity kitchen. So here’s the reason why i’m so excited about it: Identity Kitchen gets to rebrand the winner! That means all new brand recognition, new style, new gear, new designs! The catch is, between the hundreds and hundreds of applicants, if i get chosen of the top 3-5 photographers, i have to get the most votes to win. Soooo cross your fingers, pray, hope, and have faith :) Hopefully my next post about this will be one of euphoria, if not, the world won’t end and i’ll still keep pumping out the stuff I love doing. but lets hope still for the former.

It was a great day just being able to shoot around for fun after Project: Paradise.  Here are a few pictures that I took, check them out.
