Good afternoon to everyone checking out this blog post whenever you are, I hope your day is going good! I’ve been doing well these days, and I’m really glad I’ve finally picked up my speed with blogging a bit with another post out again. I think everything is going really well for this year, and I’m glad I’m finishing February up with this particular post, I think the photoshoot and everything turned out really great for it. For this blog post, I was able to get the shoot done yesterday and now I’m writing it today, so that’s great time to be getting it up already. For the photoshoot, I decided to shoot this cute Tokyo shirt that I got with my boyfriend from Goodwill some amount of months ago, and the tag it has on it says it’s from Forever21 actually. I think it’s an awesome long-sleeve shirt of mine, also technically a crop-top, and I’m so excited that I found it there and finally got the shoot done for it! It’s yet another one I ended up doing around my room, but I like the angles and shots I got a lot so it really works here as well. Soon enough I’ll get out and do another photoshoot with Matt again, like a few we did last year, but I’m not entirely sure when. I just like what I’ve been getting done around here, I’m pretty proud of everything in the last couple of months. I’m excited for it to finally be spring next month though! I’ve had a good winter and everything, and a good start to my new year and everything. With the momentum I’ve had going on so far this year, I’m excited to see how things will further unfold as I go, because everything’s looking like it’s heading in a good direction so far with all of the context clues and everything. I love the outfits I wear on a typical day sometimes too, so that’s something that will help me with some photoshoots later on and all. I’m pretty glad about how I’ve been doing with that too, getting out of the house and everything enough with it! Now let’s checkout this new shoot I was working on next.

Stoke the Fire

After a while I really got excited about this idea for this Seether shirt photoshoot. I put the idea up on my whiteboard at the beginning of one of the last two years, with this song title (Stoke the Fire) and one more up on there, to coordinate with a couple of my Seether shirts. I just got this shirt in July of 2018 from their concert (the 2nd of Seether’s that I’ve been to) and it definitely became one of my favorite concert tees that I had! I really love shooting merchandise sometimes too, it is always something I try to work well in with the mixes of other styles I do, so it works out really well that my second shoot of the year ended up being this one. Not only is this one of my only planned shoots for merchandise (from my whiteboard) that I’ve wanted to get around to, but I had just gotten my hair dyed that day and it looks so awesome in this photoshoot! Perfect for Stoke the Fire, I’m excited to see how this one turned out overall. I rarely ever had even shot these extensions, but my long red hair is finally back for me now and I’m so in love with it. I’m not sure how much of my merchandise I have left to shoot, but maybe I’ve done nearly half of it or so. You can check out a lot of photoshoots I’ve done for concert- and other celebrity-related merchandise on my other blog, CelebrityMerchBase. Nearly all of those photoshoots were also posted on this blog, but I keep track of the shirts and collecting in a concentrated form on that blog. It’ll update as I go through the year taking any pictures of my collection in any outfit! So many outfit pieces I have left to coordinate into photoshoots, written up on my whiteboard, and that’ll fill out the next year of my photoshoot ideas! It’s always my Urban Glam type outfits that I’m working on shooting, which is something I came up with way back in the day. I love including merch shirts and things like that in the mix with that style and this is such a good example, of which I think I did really well this time. I’m glad I finally got around to this Poison the Parish (the Seether album) inspired outfit, with my bright red hair and booties and these cutout leggings. The name of this shoot is also one of my very favorite Seether songs too, and one of the best ones I saw them preform live in 2018, where I got the shirt!

No Tears Left!

One of my favorite things ever is when I get this wind of inspiration to do a shoot in whatever I’m wearing at the time. Just a feeling of motivation, prepping me for those days where I’m just really doing well in terms of my flow. Some days don’t have that kind of wind, but I can always rework what I’m dealing with. For example, it’s been a while since I’ve posted this blog post & I just now came back rewrite it a little. I think I’ve got the hang of this by this point. Now granted, I know the first photo of this blog post is me with red hair again, like a lot of my older posts. And in a lot of posts both before & after this was either blonde or back to brown, so this post doesn’t really weave the best looking timeline, but I promise you to trust me. Like what days my hair was dyed verses fading to a rather blonde sometimes. That’s pretty great to me, actually. This photoshoot here was done in August 2019, and the other is from October 2020 – both with the same shredded shirt. But not to forget to mention, the side B photoshoot I did in my room this year to correspond with this photoshoot, had like 3 pictures of my outfit at my mom’s house so I finally live with her again. Exciting, actually! You’ll be seeing more of it as I go, but yeah, no more dad’s apartment. I definitely still lived with my dad when I first did No Tears Left pt.1, but we did the shoot in Bellevue (a wealthy city near Seattle). I got some really, very nice, good, pictures of my room this time around! So about that same shirt, No Tears Left To Cry, with a different tank top underneath (a grey one then a purple one) with my hair grown out from it’s dye and fading into the blonde balayage-growout. Basically I just really love these shoots, and my hair obviously has changed since summer of ’19, when I did plenty of good photoshoots from my red hair and to my blondes, too. So this dye job or a different one, of course, and my roots were tryin’ for it honestly, but I have a bunch different red haired photoshoots here if you’re wanting to check them out! I’ve had a few different kinds of hair colors and they all rocked differently. Such a timeline for my hair and the shoots I do with it and the many stages – like eras, of time or my life, plus the ‘processing of it all.

On a Slow Overdrive

Like a slow drive that I desperately know, I hope this gives me everything I’m missing. Hippie Sabotage used to be what I called this photoshoot until I actually wanted to post it. Honestly, I see why I was going to, but that’s just not quite the right idea. Now I kind of am posting it, right before Die Hard Dreamer, which was better. So working on my old riddled queue, that has become stale but used to carry the image of passion. I really believe that with some of them. Hopefully I can be what I need until I’m over with because on a slow drive to me is gears churning. But wow I can really write like in these weird ways, or states. Either way! I’ve sure been re-editing a lot though, so that’s interesting. This is what I’d like to call this Shopping Cart Shoot! (it’s for the rather) I always liked the concept of shopping carts for Shop For Days, honestly. Thought it made sense like that, and since I had found this stray shopping cart just around back out the apartments (complex) by the ol’ 711, abandoned Hooter’s type place, and a smoke shop just down the road. This is a little bit farther out for the photoshoot than some of the other ones I did around dad’s, like the other few or so that were taken out here were good but they weren’t by that sign right there. That’s a good one, right?
