Sometimes you just need to have an impromptu photoshoot in the comfort of your own home

I was feeling pretty good the other night and had just hopped out of the shower. Instead of hopping on the couch and spending a few hours gaming before bed, I decided to set up to take a few self-portrait shots.

I've got this new blue cabinet that resembles school lockers. I thought it would be the perfect background to match up with the blue Daltono logo on my shirt.

It was nighttime, so my apartment was very dark inside. That's the way I like it though because it allows me to create whatever lighting I want using my devices. I set up a blue led light off to the side. Then used one of my really bright white lights directly in front of me. Both were on tripods, which allowed me to adjust them to whatever level I liked best.

Then I positioned my iPhone 14 Pro Max on a third tripod and aimed it directly at where I would be standing. It took a few failed attempts to get an ideal framing of myself, but I got it within a few minutes.

I took a dozen or so photos and settled on the 6 included in this post as my favorites. For some I'm wearing my Daltono shirt and then for others, I decided to show off some of my chest tattoos.

I think taking the time to photograph yourself or let someone else take pictures of you is a positive thing for your mental health. If the photos are good, it's going to boost your confidence. After all, if you aren't proud of yourself, then what is the point of being alive? I think it's integral to find a way to love who you are and not be afraid to show yourself to the world.

Anyways, this isn't meant to be a super long post. I mainly just wanted to share these new photos and give you an update on what I'm looking like these days. I hope you enjoyed seeing these photos today.
