Well, one of them… there were several, actually, but this one is the only one I went to. And there are other good photos, mostly variations on these though. And Atlas (the baby, and isn’t that a awesome name?) was born the day before yesterday (or was it yesterday? I haven’t been able to keep track of the days in weeks). If the kid’s as rad as his parents, he’s set for a rad life.
er, well, it seems that way. Katie wanted some pinup-like pictures, which I’m not posting, and some more normal ones, which are below. This was a fun shoot. As for the babies, four (five? six? depending on how close of a friend we’re talking about) friends of varying closeness have had kids in the last 6 months, and several more are expecting. None for me, thanks.
I’m sure someone else will move in and civilize the place now and it won’t be the hell house any more. This was a good way to go out though, beating a couch into submission with an axe and then burning it in the back yard, and then the fire trucks show up… yeah. I’ll miss it a little. That night with the fire was a perfect end to it for me: the right mix of madness and fun and hilarity, and also danger of decapitation/third degree burns.
So I knew if I didn’t get this up now it’d be after new years before I got to it. I had to improvise a tripod out of duct tape and a light stand. If you click on it, you can see it even bigger. I might have to make some prints of this one… have to get an ink cartridge first though. hrm. I had lots of clever things to say that I though of while I was outside shooting this but now they’ve all left my head and I need rest. See you guys in the morning.
