The World's Largest Printed Photograph

I am getting the hang of this blogging thing. I shoot so many images in a month, I should have started this a while ago for an easy way to show people without emailing them every few days with new material. It is also good because sometimes I forget to email some people. So, alas, I will blog.

I went to the premier of the The Legacy Photo Project for a class assignment last Thursday. A couple photographers were granted access to theEl Toro Air Base to use it as a project to create the world's largest printed photograph. They used a hanger as the darkroom. The size was 107x31 feet. about 1/3 the size of an american football field. (I need to specify due to international readers)
You can thank me because I made the effort to go down there to take some photos for you guys. Now you can see the World's Largest Photograph at your liesure. (That is the nice way of saying, "It was cool, but cool in a 'fantasitic hippie' kind of way." If you are into "art" and "world records," this exhibit would be cool to see.)

Went to Grandma's

My Grandma said if I came to her house, she would make me any pie I wanted. She told me she can make any kind of pie. Since she is a master chef, I asked if I can have two...Then I decided not to push my luck and go with a good old fashion pecan pie.

Second Shooter for Joe Photo

My extremely talented friend, Joe Photo, let me tag along with him as a second shooter/assistant at his wedding for Alysha last week. With all joking aside, he introduced me as "The Actual Joey Himself" to all the event planners. We kept a very professional poker face, and then laughed when they walked away. I just got my memory cards back on sunday and I have not really had a chance to look at all my images. So here are a few images that I liked. It seems everytime I shoot more than 1500 images, I need to clear out all the old images I shot the week before.

The Actual Joey Himself blog is LIVE

Its about time I started one of these blogs. Much easier than individually emailing people on all corners of the earth to show my latest work.

I have entered the world of the blog and as a professional photographer as "The Actual Joey Himself." It is a name I gave myself from a couple jokes that I tell. Recently, I have been introduced to other professional photographers and clients as "...and this is the actual Joey himself!"

Here are some wedding images.
