THE OTHER HALF

My best friend, Graham, asked me to snap a few quick shots of him for his mom's birthday on the 26th. It's been a crazy break from school, surprisingly I think Graham and I have become even closer friends which I didn't think was possible.

1ST OF MANY

I am using the whole month I have off of school to shoot all my personal projects I have stored up in my head. Here is quick preview of what's to come ...

Here is a shot I took today of an amazing guy from my church, Frasier. Every Sunday he is always there early, setting up and making sure things go well - he's an inspiration to say the least!

Bunch of new shots coming soon, I have a whole month off so some serious photography is going to go down.

EMBRACE THE LIGHT

I was struck with the fact that most of my photos I am producing lately are really some inner concepts & emotions that are finally pushing their way to the surface. Whenever I am struggling with something or feeling down, I never consciously turn towards photography as an outlet for my emotions. Usually, I just try & deal with them myself but lately my photos are coming out as subtle representations of my emotions and I just realized it today while editing the photo below. It's weird how some things just work themselves out...

Sorry about the Jason Matos Photo signature on the photo but it was the same image I placed in my Facebook group & I have to watermark those shots.

The compression the blog puts the images through is disgusting, as you can see on the blue image, it looks very blocky, I'll try and upload a better version to www.flickr.com/photos/jasonmatos
