  • Print Giveaway – Rock Cover, Rock Show – Ensenada Aches

    Owwww. Fuck. This the third morning I woke up to a sharp pain in my stomach. I want to puke. There’s nothing to vomit. I’ve been sick since Saturday night… It’s Wednesday morning. The pain renders me useless for periods of time. I don’t know how women do it. It’s just a stomach ache. I…

  • Nothing in September, but Love – Looking for Gigs to End the Year – Ensenada Plan 2023

    I haven’t touched my cameras all of September… It’s already September 12th but the days have disappeared between heat, rain with heat, Labor Day long weekend, being with my girlfriend, and no gigs. August was great. There were a ton of gigs. It started with a tour, followed by some food photography in Rosarito, then…

  • Playa Cocodrilo: Camping Adventure – Empty September – Social Media Blockade

    I have 0 gigs for September. September already starts tomorrow. I need to book photoshoots, tours, or write articles to be published. Or I’ll starve. I need to write. So write I will. My editor asked me to write about stuff. It’s stuff that I already wrote in my blog. I feel more flexible in…

  • Long Exposure Selfie on the Cover (Again) -July is Over – OnlyFans Photoshoot

    I feel the need to be productive because it’s Monday, so I type and type. Otherwise, I would be playing DotA or Fall Guys. I just lost a ranked match. Waste of time. I just won a crown. Waste of time. Same thing. Win or lose. Waste of time. But hey, it’s entertainment. This week…

  • July 2022: Puppy Studio Cover – Thinking of Her – Food Influencer Gone Wrong

    I’m happy but also feeling sad. I got sunshine but also debt in a bag. More gigs coming my way, more expenses to spend. It’s coming on. Everything seems to be going great for me. It’s so good, that I got that feeling of impostor syndrome. I work at a taco truck serving and sometimes…

    My birthday was great. It continued for days, basically until yesterday (a whole week later). Tony Tee got me tickets to go see Toros. He said it was my birthday present. He would have done it regardless of my birthday or not. Going to Toros with Tony is a blast. This time, Joe and Mayda…

    Hey!I’m 36 now!I’ve been saying that since the beginning of the month. Since the beginning of the year. As soon as the year turns, I assume the age I’m going to be. I assumed it so early, that I forgot and I thought I was turning 37. The math doesn’t check out. So yes. Thirty-six.…

    It’s working! Somewhat! It’s working! I’m working. That’s what I mean. The idea of working every day is sort of going. I didn’t do shit yesterday, but that’s because I did too much on Tuesday afternoon and I was exhausted. I felt lethargic all day and was unsure why. It’s because I was tired. So…

  • Second Cover: Ensenada Seafood and Beer Paradise – Procrastination Station – March Booking, Let’s GO!

    It’s Monday. And like Garfield. I fucking hate Mondays. It’s gloomy out. It’s gloomy in. Though I look gloomy days. Sunset looks really promising. It’s a fucking shitty Monday. “It just sounds like you are procrastinating a lot.” That’s what my therapist told me. Sounds so obvious. I couldn’t figure it out. I’m fighting depression.…
