10.24.09: Cody and Vanicia's wedding preparty

Despite my quick onset of sickness (and not the good kind) on Friday night, I followed through with my plans Saturday morning and rode, 9 deep, up to Nashville for Cody and Vanicia's wedding and preparty. Luckily, the weak, tiredness and body aches chilled out a bit after a nap in the hotel, and eased enough to allow me to enjoy the preparty at RockeTown.

Although there were others, many familiar faces due to bboying made the night chill, comfortable and dope. It was like a party, a session, a dance club, a family gathering.

Anyway, I love the two of them so much. They're fam. And it was a beautiful wedding. For now, the preparty flix.

Enjoy.
Cheers, and congrats, Vanicia, Cody.

10.17.09: Battle at Hickory Lake: 1 on 1 / outreach

What to say about this event? It was cold, and by cold, I mean... blast it, why couldn't it have been indoors?!

It was fun though, and I don't often get to shoot bboys outdoors with natural light, so that was definitely a plus, EotC-wise.

It also sucked, 'cause someone snatched my crap, and left me with financial loss,headaches layering over headaches, and a schedule demanding excess energy output... energy I definitely don't have. I spent the last two mornings at different spots, trying to change/fix/recover stolen things. It's not over yet, folks. Boo.

ANYWAY, more about the jam. Of COURSE, AlphaTrion DJed, keeping it clean, as it was an outreach, but still keeping the bboys and dancers more than satisfied. They had some live graffiti going on, and even a little spontaneous freestyling happened on the mics.

Combine that with free food, and it was all-in-all a pretty good afternoon... despite the chill.

Anyway, here are the shots:

Cheers.
