Camera/Gangsta

I want people to model for me so I can practice and hopefully enhance my portrait taking skills.

However, it's not easy to ask people, 'Will you model for me and let me take invasive pictures of you with my camera? Of course, you will get no cash money benjamins from this, but you will get added to my photography collection that others will look at and judge. Oh, I will make you look purrty too.'

I have no models, so for the past half hour, I've been practicing on myself.

Right before I decided to post this entry, I was testing out the white balance and ISO settings on this Nikon D50 on my face and shadows on the wall.

Then I realized what I was doing.

I feel like such a camera whore. I have about 40 pictures on this camera of myself doing random faces and tilting my head in awkward directions.

I know what you're thinking. 'You know you love it Jason, you camera whore.'

I swear, I was doing random faces because I knew no one else would see these and I was tilting my head because I wanted to see the different effects I could get from the ceiling light.

I SWEAR. DON'T QUESTION ME GODDAMNIT.

(But I do look pretty gangsta in some of these. A Preppy/Nerdy Gangsta.)

Anyway...

I need models. Please model for me. I'll buy you a drink and make you a tuna sandwich. I swear. I won't let you down. MODEL FOR ME!!!! MALE OR FEMALE!! (preferably female, because I like them. However, males are definitely welcome. EQUAL RIGHTS FOR MODELS I SAY!
