How To Spot A Lucky Guy
You’ve seen these kind of photos floating around on the internet. Some jerk spots a couple that looks like this, photographs ‘em, and then inserts some sort of degrading, yet witty, caption about their appearance.
It was essentially my fear all weekend that this was going to happen to me. Some yad00d would spot me holding hands with this goddess and snap a photo, laughing to himself about this hairy, bedraggled guy holding hands with a girl painfully out of his league.

What caption would you put under this? Mine: “How To Spot A Lucky Guy”
Or: “How To Drive Your Girlfriend Crazy With Your Camera’s Autotimer”
Heather was here, and things were wonderful. I managed to squeeze in two photo shoots with Philadelphia locals More Like The Moon and a New Jersey band called Respond. The dudes in MLTM were amazing guys, and played a rockin’ cover of Outkast’s Hey Ya for us in my apartment. Plus I mean, come on, More Like The Moon? Named after a Wilco EP? Awesome.
Respond just recorded with the famed Jesse Cannon, who has produced artists like Head Automatica, Lifetime, Northstar, Saves The Day, and Say Anything.
The weekend consisted of gelato, an amazing rooftop dinner prepared by my friend Saray, cuddling while killing some zombies, playing with butterflies, and watching the best example of a ruined trilogy since The Matrix. Heather also came along for the shoots, and she just stood by and smiled, watching me work. I mean just look at her. Could she be any more perfect?

I’ll be posting up photos from the shoots this week, as well as rambling non-stop about how much I a.) miss my heather, b.) want to go out on tour already, and c.) have too much photo work to do. Please note that the photos on MLTM and Respond’s myspaces aren’t mine. I’ll post when they are up.
Listen: Farewell, Houston Calls, The Mile After.
Watch: The Fountain.
Don’t Watch: Pirates of the Caribean III: At World’s End.

Does your girlfriend know how much hotter she is than you? If she doesn’t– keep it that way.

[…] which is being edited right now. I’ve already started on a second one. My dream girl and I took the leap and decided to make what we have work. And it’s working. Living in a city with an endless amount of things to do definitely makes […]
