I'm getting (mentally) ready for East Coast October!

Wednesday, though, I had a shoot for BRANDED, which was cool, and although I haven't had time to work on Monday's images yet, I'd rather have too many images than not enough, you know?  I doubt I'll do much shooting on the road, but you never know - I may well have whole days to kill and try taking some pictures as a way to pass the time.  I might also go to Washington DC to take pictures of monuments.  Maybe.

Anyway, college football and then Bootie on Saturday night and a flight early Sunday mean that I'm going to be busy as shit over the next 24 hours and even though nothing interesting is happening, I wanted to say hi anyway.  Maybe I'll post a picture or two later on, or at least let you know if I get something up on the BRANDED website.

Monday was my day in San Diego to shoot for Branded.  I had three models confirmed and two more on the "maybe" tip.  I've learned long ago that "maybe" is the LA "no", and models all want to be LA, even if they're not here.  No problem.  Three confirmed is good.  Thing is, two flaked.  So 33% of my models showed up, which is a bad ratio unless you're playing baseball, where winning 33% of your games would make you the second best team of all time (behind, of course, the Yankees, who have never lost a baseball game ever).

So that sucked.

But then Drew suggested a ride into the desert, and that ruled.  We rode for about 4 hours or a little more, if you count our stop at a diner for sliders and chicken strips.  Fun times. The ride was great.

So San Diego didn't get me the shots I wanted, but it did get me some awesome ridin' time with Drew, and that more than balanced out the crappy models who didn't show.
