Whenever possible, I recommend ending your day this way. :)

 

Thanks for the fun day yesterday, Brandi, Matt and Steph!

...succumb to the wide angle! That Canon EF 16-35/2.8L II USM is a terribly fun walk-around lens. Note: Matt's forehead and cheek is not that big!

 

So cute, these two. These two are my friends from Tulsa, who were visiting the San Diego on vacation, and C & I met up with them in North County for some fun times. Lunch, coffee, impromptu engagement session 5 years late (they've been married 5 years this May), and photo-geeking on the beach at sunset. Had SUCH a great day!

First maternity shoot. Got got this idea from many talented flickr members. How'd I do?

The beautiful, glowing Brandi!

 

I met up with my friends Ryan and Brandi and Matt while I was in Tulsa. We had lunch and then snapped a few pictures while chatting in the parking lot. The midday sun was killer!

Another yoga pic. I thought this was pretty funny. |{ #yoga #stretch #pose #contortion #funny }|

If you haven't seen the new CollegeHumor.com 's Instagram/Nickleback parody.. Go watch it now! I cried laughing cuz it's so so true about the IG culture. Well worth the watch! (I don't usually post stuff like this, it's that funny!) -- #collegehumor www.collegehumor.com

flutterbye: I just scrolled through my feed, no crap...a building, selfie, building, door, coffee, beer....wow.

 

mandyatlarge: @flutterbye it's so incredibly perfect. They did a great job on it. I have never liked a Nickleback song in my life but THIS! It makes me so happy.

 

killerotter: Just a coincidence - it's also boobs.

 

mandyatlarge: @killerotter yes!! It's so true!

 

julijackson: BWHAHAHAHA! That's so great. The duck kills me too an also the "peach pie, peach pie" with the guy in the background taking pictures of the due taking pictures.

 

mandyatlarge: @julijackson yes!! The guy taking pics of the guy is a perfect detail. I'm so addicted to this freakin song.. Never. Ever. Thought I'd say that about a Nickleback song haha.

 

julijackson: @julijackson I have had a long standing dislike of Nickelback but for parody, it is just fine. ;)

 

julijackson: I really didn't mean to tag myself in that comment. Doh.

Boyfriend got us tickets to this weekend's Arkansas game in Little Rock! We've got a pretty good team this year so I'm excited. I've never been to a football game. Haha. { #football #tickets #Arkansas #razorbacks #collegefootball #sports }

jonrodgers: I'm jealous!

 

killerotter: Football games are fun live. I've never been to a college one, though. Only NFL.

 

mandyatlarge: @killerotter Arkansas is nuts about the Razorbacks and I hear games in Little Rock get crazy cuz it's so small and 90% AR fans. I'm excited. I was home schooled so I've never been to ANY football games. Haha, should be fun.

 

killerotter: @mandyatlarge Sometimes Razorback fans get a bit carried away. Every time time I drive through AR, I chuckle a little bit at the billboard for the orthodontist whose website is razorbraces.com. Razor braces? Where do I sign up?

 

ox_man: woo pig soooie

   

My friend Brandi, her husband Matt, and his D80 while we were taking a group portrait outside the restaurant at the Tulsa meetup.

Brandi is my flickr friend but we also went to high school together. Matt is her husband, and a terrific photographer who didn't bring his camera.

 

They are looking beautiful here, of course, despite the melting heat. It's not Brandi's "pregnancy glow" either--it's just them!

 

Matt was making a crack about how he'd get closer to Brandi because he knew I could focus better that way. ha!

Since I'm in Tulsa, I had to see Brandi + Matt + new baby Claire.

 

I think this is my favorite of the day. <3

They are such a beautiful family.

For disclosure sake I did not come up with this idea on my own. I saw this photo and decided to try it out. I did not plan to copy it exactly but I do really like the shot. Both his and mine.

Brandi was trying to get Claire to wake up and nurse so they could all take a nap. :)

killerotter: Dumb guy, awesome photo.

 

heliocentricism: I missed you on ig!!

 

presswood: Proud to say we've fought hard for no helmet laws in my state. It's one freedom most bikers appreciate. Helmets are nothing more than brain buckets. Live free. Die free.

 

mandyatlarge: @presswood oh I know all about it. Not saying it should be illegal, just think staying safe doesn't have to be. If you wanna kill yourself, go for it. 

Ever been in a Bass Pro shop? I think it's official they are turning the iconic Memphis Pyramid into a Bass Pro.. makes me sad. I loved going to all the incredible history exhibits there as a kid, but I'll admit, for events, this place has sucked for a while. This one was in Nashville. { #basspro #Tennessee #Memphispyramid #bassproshop #southern }

ilikpoop: Where are you in TN

 

ilikpoop: I'm going to Knoxville Saturday

 

mandyatlarge: @ilikpoop this pic was from when I was in Nashville a couple of weeks ago. I am originally from West Memphis, which is just across the bridge (in Arkansas) from Memphis. So I'm in Arkansas, but go to Memphis a lot. I think Knoxville is on the opposite side of the state.

 

killerotter: There's one about 2 miles from my house. I've been there a couple times to buy presents for people, but I wasn't that impressed.

 

mandyatlarge: @killerotter yah, I got drug in there while on a business trip. It was a pretty big one so I was like a little kid, glued to the giant fish tank most of the time. But, alas, it's just a retail store... I just really wish Memphis would have put more effort into it's plans with the Pyramid, it's such an icon.

 

killerotter: @mandyatlarge The pyramid is really beautiful. I didn't even even know of its existence until a few months ago, when I spent half day in Memphis.

 

mandyatlarge: @killerotter I love Memphis and have grown up seeing the Pyramid included in the only cityscape I knew as a child. What a different feeling it will be knowing it's a Bass Pro shop... Just makes me sick.

  

Naah, doesn't look mean enough to be a killer:) About my only single person "candid" yesterday.

This is where my photos live.

  

Flashpoint 620A through white umbrella camera right.

Snooted Flashpoint 620A gelled blue behind subject to the left.

I had a reflector (windshield sun shade) to the left of the subject that also did double duty as a gobo for the edgelight.

Subject sitting on bathroom mirror.

Check out the Setup.

I swear, the moment I took the camera out and pointed it in his direction, Matt was all over that! It was so funny. :) I don't think he took pictures that night though because he was busy holding his baby and playing host to his friends.

New painting! Need your help! Trying to figure out the best color for her dress. Black? Pink? Or leave it white? Also any suggestions are greatly appreciated!  #painting #art #painting #picnic #mandyartist

alishayarbrough: a vibrant blue!!!

 

nessasaur: I saw blue too. although that's very "Alice-y" lol

 

killerotter: I was thinking blue as well.

 

mandyatlarge: @alishayarbrough I think @nessasaur has a point about it being 'Alice-y'... That isn't what I was going for, so making it 'not blue' might be a good way to counter that, since it obviously does.. Hmm. Great suggestions though! Still thinking.

 

thisreallycoolguy: My equally talented artistic sister (and I) suggest leaving it white or maybe going for a vibrant purple? As to avoid clichè..

 

mandyatlarge: @izzys_4 I agree that the white makes it stand out, and I do like it white. But white is usually associated with purity/good and again, not what I am going for... @thisreallycoolguy I like the purple idea, I had kind of consider it since it is used in the wine bottles.

 

iliana_rose: Amazing!

 

iliana_rose: Black/light pink for the apron !

  

I accidentally left my camera on ISO 1600 from shooting a show a few nights before...again. I have to stop doing that.

jimdoggy: Very clever indeed.....

  

:/ so I came home from work and the neighbor had a huge extension cord plugged into OUR house! Right above my peonies; who knew there was a plug there?! I left Ben to take care of it and went to yoga. He got a lock for the plug and installed it to keep it from happening. Well, of course, they broke my peonies and pulled them up. I just planted them in the dark... Only hope they survive. This is the 3rd year in a row someone has ruined my flowers... -- { #flower #broken #mean }

jsul: Wtf

 

junhazuki: Oh no :(

 

mandyatlarge: @jessiebabez @spoospa @julijackson thanks everyone. I have cooled off a bit now. I do plan to go to the police station later to file a complaint. Probably won't do anything but at least it's on record.

 

mandyatlarge: @charleylhasa I think they were mad we cut off their free electricity.

 

jessiebabez: Yea show them that picture you took. Next time leave it though and call them while it's plugged. It's a serious crime believe it or not and they can get arrested on the spot.

 

jessiebabez: @killerotter 'accidentally '

 

spoospa: Good. At least you can say you did something.

mandyatlarge: I've been trying for days to get this picture. He's hanging on the backside of his web sort of against the house so I have to carefully slip my hand behind there.... 

 

hillarygayle: Corn spider!!! I love them.

 

dwr1: 

 

killerotter: I love garden spiders. There's been one in front of my house every year since I moved in, but the eggs didn't hatch this year.  Maybe because of the heat.
