Be a Lady They Said

Blog, Creativity & InspirationBy ShawnFebruary 25, 2020Leave a comment

Be a Lady They Said I stumbled across this video just now, thanks to a Facebook post from a fellow photographer, that was directed by Paul McLean for Girls. Girls. Girls. Magazine. It was too powerful of a message to ignore and not share their work.

That Post I Keep Talking About

Blog, Creativity & Inspiration, UpdatesBy ShawnNovember 9, 2018Leave a comment

That Post I Keep Talking About For the past 3 months (or possibly longer; I’ve honestly lost track of time), I have been writing and re-writing this blog post easily a million times now.  The first couple thousand drafts read like a pity party and a bunch of really lame as excuses. A couple people…

seen things differently… “The camera is a liar.  It shows everything, it shows nothing.  It reveals only what we want.  Often what we see is seen only from a window; moving past then gone.  One window.  My window.  If you’d been here, chances are you would have seen things differently.” -Anthony Bourdain   I can’t…

A Simple Conversation

Blog, Creativity & Inspiration, PhotoblogBy ShawnMay 25, 2018Leave a comment

A Simple Conversation Thursday morning I had a shoot with my old friend Mabel.  She order one of the shirts from my Shop and when it came in we set up a time for her to pick it up.  I brought up the idea that we needed to put another shoot under our belts.  She…

Everything you did has already been done. The above image is two pages from Austin Kleon’s book, Steal Like An Artist.  If you haven’t read this yet, definitely go grab a copy quick.  Now that I have given credit where credit is due, on to my real point (hopefully). I have seen too many posts…

The Eyes Have It

The Eyes Have It On Father’s Day, the kiddos and I went o my aunt’s house for our bi-weekly Sunday dinners.  Before we left the house, I decided to grab my camera and a roll of Lomography Lady Grey 400 speed film.  After dinner, all of the kids ended up swimming in my aunt’s pool…

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree… Yesterday, I loaded up my almost 13 year old daughter and headed down to Graffiti Park at Castle Hill.  Keep in mind, it was the last day of music for SXSW… Parking was atrocious but we got lucky and only parked about a block away.  There were…

The Evolution of Stripped Down

Blog, Creativity & Inspiration, NSFW, PhotoblogBy ShawnNovember 23, 2016Leave a comment

The Evolution of Stripped Down I shot my very first frame for my Stripped Down series in 2008.  I had a general idea of what I was wanting to do with the series.  And it was a learning experience for me.  High key lighting was a foreign and new concept for me.  How do I…

Slow Down

Blog, Creativity & Inspiration, PhotoblogBy ShawnAugust 31, 2015Leave a comment

Slow Down For those that know me, the phrase “Slow Down” has so much meaning to me.  I tattooed it on my knuckles less than 12 hours before I got the phone call that grandmother had passed away.  The idea came to me as I drove home from a Grieves show, blasting Light Speed as…
