Wow its been a while....

I really need to make this blog something I do more often. It gets put on the back burner too much, probably because my memory is so short that when I think up good blog topics, they're gone by the time I get here...

So heres the update on my life right now.

This sunday is the first Presence, being held downtown London at the Arts Project. I'm leading (well not really leading...more like organizing a group of people) the worship this sunday, and by the look of it, the next few as well. I'm working on getting people to see the idea of 'alternative worship', in that its not about the songs, the lyrics, how we play, but about the idea of coming together, using our talents, creating something unique.
It will be an interesting day. Website here: http://presencelondon.blogspot.com

I am currently in the process of closing down my studio location (not the business, but just the location) as it was costing me too much, and I rarely used the space. I'm converting my basement into an office/lounge (retro baby!). Besides saving me money (wow gas prices are $1!!!!), I'm using this as an opportunity to expand my creativity to location shooting. There is no cushion of having a studio to shoot in with simple backgrounds and set up lighting (though I do like having total control). I now have to push myself back into shooting at different locations, which I have been wanting to do for a while now. I get bored too fast with the same thing over and over, so this is good.

I'm also starting a magazine called Revolutions. This is a motorcycle lifestyle magazine. So far i've had some good responses about it. People wanting to write for it, giving me new ideas, etc. Its going to be alot of work, at least for the first one, but I think its worth it. I've been playing with this idea for a few years, but now seems to be the time. I'll be editing and publishing and writing and photographing and....wow...You can check out the temp site here: http://revolutionsmagazine.com

EUROPE!!!!! Oh i've missed traveling. Its been almost two years since I last went traveling, so i've been getting antsy. Me and Dani leave May 8th for england and don't get back until June 20!! We have no real plans on where to go (just the way I like it), but Dani is making a list of where she wants to see. We'll be backpacking, hitting the hostels, getting lost and loving it. I can't wait to take more photos over there. Attention National Geographic: my resume will be coming this summer. haha

Umm that is about it. I will hopefully get this updated more often, and hopefully someone reads this!

Cheers
