Color Me Rad 5K Photos

So back on August 10th my friend Jordan and I were part of the photography team that captured the imagery from the Color Me Rad 5k. It was an interesting event and a fun experience that I learned a lot from. While Jordan and I only had about 2 hours of sleep before the event, we were able to still get the job done.

I fared a little better than Jordan with where I was placed to shoot as I was only slightly covered in colored powder once I was finished (at the end of the race he was covered head to toe in pink powder). I was stationed in the photo booth area at the finish line, so there was less chance of me getting completely covered. While I was told what settings to use and how to shoot, here are a few shots that I am pretty fond of.

Things started out pretty good...




This might have been the turning point...


And the color explosions start...



And now I had to save the best one for last. I love this shot.

I'm Still Here!

Sorry I have not posted much or given many updates on my work or book. It looks like the last proof I have is perfect. I just need to check on one more thing which is a printing error on the printing companies end. Other than that the book looks to be finished and ready to release...

So that's where I need a little bit of help from the people in Seattle...

Hey Seattle People! I am looking for a space in the next couple weeks to throw a book release party for the photo book I have coming out. Any help would be great. I am looking for a space that is fairly nice and gallery like. Also a space that can serve beer and wine (maybe liquor). I am also seeing if I can do this on the cheap, BUT PREFERABLY FREE. I am not trying to make money, just want to celebrate the release of this book that I have put a lot of my time and effort into.

Here is the front and back covers of the book!

I want to thank everyone for all the help on the funding of my Kickstarter for my upcoming photo book. I am posting this update to let everyone know that I am still here and pushing really hard to get the book all wrapped up and ready to release. I hope to have some great news for you really soon.
