Before I start this small blog entry, I just want to point out that: “CRAIGSLIST IS F@#$% AWESOME!”

 I really needed a light meter and there’s no way I can afford the one I usually sign out from school (retails for $300 plus). Saw an older Sekonic model, L-458, for $40! Its not as fancy as the one I used to use, but dang, it meters ambient and flash! That’s alllllllllll I need.

CRAIGSLIST…..GET ON THAT!

(PHOTO OF THE WEEK: WEEK 18): …First and foremost, I would like to thank everyone who took part in the party. None of it would’ve been possible without you all. To the Cruz sisters, I know all three of you were ready for sushi, and I apologize for making the three of you crave it, LOL.  HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAYS CRUZ SISTERS!

I was too busy to go around and take pictures. Here’s a portion of the group who was there that night.

…HUGE thanks to Satelites for taking time off their practice to be there that night.

…Ron Sia filmed pretty much the whole thing that night, so stay tuned for that…http://wannaseewhatisee.blogspot.com/

OH and one more thing, special thanks to the host/mc of that night Gerald Beltran…you killed it.

Thank you to the cleanup crew as well. Teody, thanks for helping me setup the tarp.

After months of debating on the pocket wizards or the cybersync, I finally gave in and decided to use my tax return on these bad boys. For the price of 2 pocket wizard tranceivers, I got a transmitter and three receivers and it still came up cheaper! Haven’t used them yet, I will write a detailed review/opinion when I shoot this weekend. YAAAAAY!
