Pinhole portrait, Zombie Skateboarding, exhibit closing
18 Nov
I had the pleasure of doing Danielle and Bryan’s pinhole engagement photographs at the Arizona State Fair. They were so cooperative, holding still for 15 minutes!
I’ve had quite the busy photography weekend. On Friday night Gary and I photographed the National Black MBA Association conference. On Saturday night we set up a PhotoBooth at the Mondrian Hotel for the 944 Magazine Unscene Tour. On Sunday afternoon we photographed an engagement session at Papago Park. We hiked to the top of the Hole in the Rock to photograph them in the sunset and we were attacked by Zombies! I’m totally serious. Zombie Skateboarding company was up there filming a movie, and a bunch of zombies were dressed up and on skateboards. Probably not the safest spot to skateboard, but they had a hurst waiting for them at the bottom in case they needed it. ha! On Sunday evening my apartment complex, Papago Trillium, held an art expo for the artists that live in the community. It was complete with cheese and crackers, wine and jazz! I met a few more people that live here and enjoyed showing off my pinhole photographs.
This Friday, November 21st, is the closing reception of the Mysterious Exhibit. If you haven’t seen it yet, please do stop by, it’s a wonderful exhibit. 1301 NW Grand Ave, 85007. I’ll be there from 6-9pm. 11 photographers, a Day of the Dead installation and A Spaceship installation. Definitely worth the trip over. Also next door, Steve Weiss will be holding his exhibition opening for his ‘Lost Vegas’ photography series. I believe he said at 9pm there is a $10 game of poker happening as well. So check out my exhibit first, then head over to his, which is next door and stay for some poker! You could do dinner beforehand at Cibo or Paisley Violin and your Friday night is planned!
