Alphotog on the rise!

So the team and i just wrapped up a successful shoot with Mazu SF. We're doing a complete makeover of their website, so this past Sunday we scheduled an appointment with them to shoot key items off of their menu. If you haven't been to Mazu, I highly suggest you check them out for their food ( Sea Bass is on point!), and specialty drinks ( try the spicy thai drink!). This place has easily become my favorite bar in SF, I seriously have been going there on a weekly basis. But it's their special drinks and food that make them stand out from the rest, oh and I hear they have some pretty awesome artwork as well ;) . Its such a chill spot with great music. Dont go thinking your gonna get your freak on, but if you want to chill with the homies and enjoy yourself, then Mazu is the spot!
Anyways, the above picture is a grapefruit cosmo i think, but as you can see the pictures came out great. Our business is picking up, not too fast and not too slow, but juuuuuussst right! We have have quite a few shoots scheduled right now, not to mention a new Art show in the works that will be taking place in Oakland at Spice Monkey, so make sure to look out for that one. And by the way, we are currently seeking a DJ or band that might want to perform at this event, so if you or someone you know might be interested, please let us know and we can provide you with more details of this event.
We are also starting to put together ideas for a third, and more elaborate art show, a Fashion show really. So calling all hair stylists, make up artists, and fashion designers, if you want to showcase your talents and add some photos ( from us of course) to your portfolio, contact me so we can further discuss this future show!

My Sick Day.

So today I had a bit of a relaxing day. Of course, it didn't start that way.

It started off by my alarm clock buzzing it's way into my dream and disrupting a good nights rest. The time was 7am, and like every morning, i preceded to the bathroom to take a nice steamy, soothing shower. After the shower, I dryed off, got dressed, fixed my hair, and just as I snagged my keys off the dresser, " Boom" my stomach went! Like a grenade carefully placed in a bunker, my stomach just blew up! You see, about 10 hours prior to this event, I was scarfing down some boiling crab shrimp, whole sha-bang XXX. Ive never ordered the XXX before, but i felt a bit daring last night. HUGE mistake! Well anyways, back to my exciting morning, this impending pain came at the worst moment, and was forcing me to become unexcusebly late for work. So I made the dreaded call to my supervisor, and told her I wasn't feeling up to par, and was going to take a sick day. For almost 2 hours, i had frequent visits to the bathroom, but after a while, it wore off, and it was still early for me to enjoy my day.

After my body forcingly emptied itself, I decided to grab some McDonalds breakfast! I loooooovvveeee McDonalds breakfast! Especially the sausage mcmuffin with egg, King of all breakfast sandwiches!!!!! I enjoyed the McMeal over a decent movie on netflix on my xbox. After the movie, I ran a couple of errands that have been pending since i dont get off of work til 5 and were unable to accomplish them during the week.

My first trip was to my bank, Wells Fargo. OMG, mothereffingidiots i swear. How many F******* security procedures are yo gonna put me through before you realize that it is me standing in your branch with my California I.D. in yo face!! Idiots! Well after i cleared up an issue with them, i happily drove to my next destination.

San Jose camera and video. Toy store, candy store, strip club, club, bar, whatever! Nothing gets me all giddy like this place of course. Unless I'm standing at the beach with a 10ft. break in front of me and my board in my hands, then maybe yes that would be better, but otherwise bam, this is where i want to be! HAHA. After spending 10 minutes in the store and discussing a few things with one of the salesman, I spent about $5K. In my head of course. Luckily, My sweet Gf helped me steer away from spending a load of money, and instead i only bought a few small things ; )

Well to cut this story short, mainly because im very tired and want to go to bed now, I ended the night with a #2 from KFC, taking the above picture of some orchids I purchased for my mom because shes such a cool mom, annnnnddd having pretty much my first real fight with my GF, but are first make up as well :) Goodnight world!
