BIG week… BIG announcement tomorrow! I’ve been putting majority of my time into what is to come, which is why i’ve posted some “history lessons” on a couple of the recent blog posts, but I do like showing some things like that, that have inspired me over the years, and helps when editing time isn’t available!
Tomorrows blog post will be in the mid to late afternoon timeframe
if you are interested, I have been posting behind the scenes content on patreon!
Copyright Strike on the Youtube
I hope they upload it sometime for people to get educated on some Eggleston history! Or simply have it available for sale?
What do you think??? Hit me up on instagram
we don't take cash but we do
Corner store stoppage while out photographing
the next few days I have to force myself to stay in to put in work on organizing a printing, which ill be documenting. I shoullllld have a special announcement video up on Wednesday! If not a video, at least the announcement with some photo content. I have some videos in the works, I really want to get on consistent video uploading program. I am stoked on how YouTube is going lately! (YouTube.com/ogbsmitty)
Planning for a big day
Ordered these pencils by recommendation of van veistat. I have been enjoying using them, they have come in handy for my preparation for my upcoming print sale that is happening! I’ll be sharing more details on that soon.
busy week to prepare! Stay tuned into this blog for more, and thank you for your support!
Plugged in
if you’re a desktop viewer of the blog, which at the time of this blog post is 30.07% of you.. will be happy to see that the photos, especially the vertical photos.. are no longer oversized on your monitor!
Radio Shack
went back to 1985 and it looked to be a great time… also was the year I was born!
The Depths OF Cleveland
The thing about photography is that there is always a photo to be made, earlier I drove to the post office and was in a town I drive through often.. But I think i’ve only walked around that town one time and that was probably near 10 years ago! I actually found that to be a glaring problem, a whole town nearby? From the surface it may seem like not much… but I have to get into the depths of it.

Space Jam A New Legacy
Had a great day enjoying a time at the cinema and walking around the mall, it was my first time seeing a movie at the theatre since before the pandemic. We thought the new space jam was awesome! I do recommend it, it’s for sure entertaining.
Laundromat
Taking advantage of “the magic hour” is something I am focusing on more, I believe that goes with my wanting to mess with flash since the beginning of the pandemic lines up with that as well. My style is my style, and introducing certain light in one way or another.. really seems to magnify the style in a tremendous way.
MYA
Got to meet mya while meeting up with other photographers in the flats of Cleveland. The photographers seemed to be taking what looked to be the same straight on shot, i creeped around the railing that had a bit of the ledge sticking out that I can stand on and asked for her to look over, and snapped this photograph.
check her out on Instagram
One Piece
I asked to take this portrait and the response was “Definitely I got my fit on today.”
I was just talking with some photographers about approaching strangers, i’ve come to learn recently that majority of people are really excited about being photograph, or at the very least intrigued by it! It’s something i’m working on doing more myself.
First Night With Black Mist Filter
Here are the photographs from the black mist video I made (watch here)
Bonus photo! This photograph was made on the way out of Cleveland with the black pro mist filter, I didnt add this to the video because I wanted to do more of a proper long form video in the future and compare distances, and just having this in the short video didn’t seem to make sense.
