Hopefully it will take a lot off my my chest.

I haven't been on here for a few months but when i got on i passed 2,000. Thank you very much and I had a lot of favorites too once again thank you very much to those people.

EDC is comming up again this year and well, instead of one day this year it is 2 FULL DAYS!
Omg this is going to be bad for my health!
But fun.
Are you going?
It's like art in itself. One of the most beautiful things you will see in your life.

It has proved to be educational and I learn something new every time.

Hope you all have a great week.

But I have been gone for quite some time.

Here is a mini update.

Not really doing a lot of photography lately. I have a photo shoot coming up with a Suicide Girl. But other wise you might just be able to see my editing skills pretty soon. I'm working on peoples Stock Images. Mostly for practice. But I'm doing much better because (Mwahaha) I'm not using gimp anymore. I have started using CS2. SO MUCH BETTER!

So we'll have to see what Ame conjures up eh?

Have a good week people.

I had only heard about her until yesterday and she is one of those people that I automatically made friends with. She has a unique personality that I have seen in very few people, and shes funny as hell too.
We all ended up at her house after the short shoot that we did, and we all partied XD
SO MUCH FUN!

Nm new other than that.
You might still see photos from my former shoot with Krystal floating in every now and then too.

Man I'm so tired haha.

Have a good week

I just put up a new series that i'm very proud about.
My model is Krystal, she's a very close friend of mine and a great model. Whether its snapping off pictures or just hanging out she fun Some pictures took me 2 hours to make just for the fact I work on a laptop with gimp. Comments/Favorites are MUCH appreciated. There will be more to come.
I'm currently building a computer and hopefully I'll get a smaller version of photoshop.

Mm I only got like 2 hours of sleep last night. Went to a meeting and slept again. So I'm feeling a bit hungry. Gunna get some Grub!

Have a great week everyone

Finally got my batteries back. So I can start taking more photos.
I'm thinking about working in a camera shop since my job is not paying me well enough anymore and I'm not able to get the benefits I wanted. So might as well work with no benefits and love what I'm doing.
KigroVixen came to see me YEY! Made me feel better.

]]> ~AmeliaMaverick http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/13814545/ http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/13814545/ Fri, 20 Jul 2007 21:59:12 PDT The guy is being charged with Sexual Harassment towards one of his models. So obviously I don't want anything to do with him or his shop ever again.

It wasn't unforeseen though. Thats why I attempted to type up a form or contract for his models and for him. But when I brought this to his attention the guy got defensive, and quite visibly jittery.

It also failed to make me understand how he offered these women jobs in modeling when he didn't do photography very well nor have the proper camera for it (he might as well have used a disposable camera from target). He had most of his pictures with the dates still on them.

We (as in his models, some people that helped and I) all thought he was on the creepy side. Next time it is brought to my attention though, I just hope I can prevent it better.

In other news, I got myself a subscription to DA. Yay!

I'm thinking about taking collage courses for my photography and maybe a photoshop class too.
I would really like to go to Brooks Institute, and if you don't know about it, it takes a pretty penny to get in. But it's one of the best. Maybe I'll take a student loan.

And I'm thinking about taking another visit to San Diego pretty soon.
I miss some one very much.

Some good... Some not so good.
But I woke up and breathed a fresh breath of morning air. And I'm back on my own two feet.
I'm going to be having a shoot on Friday so this will prove to be interesting. These will FINALLY be shots of human beings. It will be fashion photography. Much Excitedness.
My father was actually useful for once. He got me a computer instead of this crappy laptop that goes out on me if I even twitch. The computer also has photoshop on it so yeyness there. But I still want my old computer back just so I can steal the CS on that one.

Anyways hope you all have a great 4th of July and a great week. ]]> ~AmeliaMaverick http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/13394440/ http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/13394440/ Mon, 18 Jun 2007 13:21:55 PDT I got a new job at a Movie rental place.
So I think I'm going to have to start taking pictures in the morning, because I work late shifts.
I like the job much better than BK though. Even though you still deal with the same difficult people and sometimes worse.
I finally got some people to agree to let me take photos of them, so more people shots will be going up.

Anyways hope all is well with you.

And so many photo opportunities ^^

I loved San Diego!
I love how casual it is. I love the weather. I love how it's by the ocean. I love that my love is there. The only thing I pretty much don't love is the drivers, too cranky.
On that note, I'd like to announce that I will be moving there.

And my prayers go out to the wounded.

It's just sad.

And at least my photos where circulated into there every once in awhile... But since it's kinda stuck, my photos don't have the chance to be seen. And wow I can get started on a whole other story on that note but It's probably not the time to go into stories

So on that note alone I bid everyone a great week.
Hopefully I can get those photos up soon.

Toodles ^^

So I hereby mark today the day of 200 pageveiws

Imma thinking I will go out and take some picture.. but put some more people in them =]

Have a great week everyone

I got a wonderful surprise.
I got a baby rat from a friend that could no longer keep her. She's a complete sweetheart. Just like my friend. =]
Basically any stress that I once had is diminished and I can think clearly again.
So off I am to look for a new job. My last boss was a complete freak so I had to quit.


Have a good day people.

]]> ~AmeliaMaverick http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/12174613/ http://AmeliaMaverick.deviantart.com/journal/12174613/ Tue, 13 Mar 2007 21:26:03 PDT I've just been extremely busy this last week.
Unfortunately I only had one day off last week and I had things to do.
I'm working 2 jobs at the moment going from one to the other and working 8-11 hours each day. I'm quiting one by Thursday. I've pretty much haven't had the time or the daylight to do what I want. But hopefully by the time Friday rolls around I'm going to have a set schedules.
I am so tired XD

I have also been sick, so basically when I walk outside the cold gets to me in an instant and tickles the back of my throat and makes me cough like mad.
And I can't breathe.
And I need to breathe.
Breathing is good.

Anyways besides that...
I have nothing else to say...
Damn you writers block >.<

It's funny how that happens.
Wrar.
I just don't want to use up all my ideas on self-portraits.
I tis not conceited!
I'll take more photos sometime this week.
I have a photo idea I would really like to try out that is burning in tha back of my head.
Then again I have lots of ideas because I write them down.
Grrza.

Have a good day ppl.

Peace out,
Ame

I get 2 more payments on my car then i can save up for a camera of my own.

I have to wait another 4 months in order to get my camera.

My parents are making me pay rent... well... more like i'm helping them pay rent.

And im making payments on a car.

Guh.

I found out I loved doing photography just by simply picking up my first professional camera (Which was like 30 years old). It was handed down to me by my father. And I immediatly begun snapping photos away. My first shots where simple.. Butterflys and scenery. Family and Pets. I spotted a humming bird feeder and got nice and close to it. I stood there for about 30 min shooting away and got the most wonderful shots of Anna's Humming Birds.

Dust was collected on the old thing as I went through High School. Every once in a while I'd pick it up.

Lately I have been using my dads brand new Pentax and I love it. The only problem is he wont let me take it outside of a 10 feet radius, and I hate being limited to what I can take pictures of. Which makes me come to my final agreement that I am going to buy my own camera within the next few weeks. Excited? I think SO!

$_$ So expensive but so worth it.
