IMAIM 6-13-09

ok, so I've been VERY disappeared, but I am have good reason! The logistics of putting together this year's calendar have been CRAZY! It seems the more time I gave myself to plan for unfortunate circumstances, the more unfortunate circumstances I've run into...

But I digress...

These photos were taken the same day as the Lissett and Yvette shoot. They were taken at a rock festival at Optimist Park in Miami Lakes, and they feature a band called IMAIM. I'm not much into thrash, but these guys kick ass!

Walk Now for Autism 2-22-09

Our Team: "Jesse's Girls"...and boys, I guess. LOL

This past weekend was the annual Walk Now for Autism event. I had never participated in this event before, though Autism is a cause near to my heart, and I had been training to work with children with Autism when I was in college.

Christie orchestrated our participation in the event, as we were walking for Jesse, one of her students (Christie is an ESE teacher).

I wasn't hired to take photos for this event, hell, I didn't even bring any of my big cameras LOL just my little point and shoot, but I wanted to post about the event anyways because not only was it a lot of fun, it was for an amazing cause, and I want to let you all know that this is definitely something that Beautiful Garbage Photography is going to be a part of for the long haul!

Next up: the Miami Kidney Walk, 3/8/09...please email me if you'd like information about registering for our team or making a donation!!!

as always, love to all!

AVD 9-20-08

The Wallflower Gallery had their 3rd annual GLBT event September 20th, and my favorite all girl, all lesbian band (lol not too many of those around, I know, but these girls ROCK!!!) Audio Video Disco closed off the event with a fantastic (as always) set...gotta love these girls!

I created a whole album on my myspace which I shall be filling with photos little by little, as I surely shall be photographing the band more in the near future =D They are currently recording their first EP and they have commissioned me to do the photography for their album art. ME! WITH MY WORK ON A CD! yay!
