One upon a time, I thought I was going to have a career as a musician. That didn't happen, for many reasons, and it's been a very very long time since I released a song of my own . but the music never really left me. Enjoy.

Please be more than your "grind." . Sleep. Recharge yourself. Have a hobby or two. You will be a better person for it, and when it comes time to get to work it will show.
While you're sleeping, someone else is grinding. While you're procrastinating someone else is training. Think twice how you're investing your time. 🏆.

Yo after all the cancellations, delays and heartbreaks our TO's have dealt with in the last 20 months, how are so many of y'all going to show up to CEO and run around without a mask on, or half on or whatever? The one simple request you're asked of, to help get our events back.

@bombsfall @brendengallager For the same employees that might be lucky to get bereavement time for a passing family member, let alone counseling . .

@HugS86 People with PTSD can be "triggered" and have relapse of traumatic memories . you see it most often in combat veterans, violence / sexual assault victims, etc. But now any time someone is annoyed or disagrees it's "lul the snowflake is triggered.".

If someone in esports says George Floyd should still be alive, or that Black Lives Matter, and you cry "politics" . that's on you. If you think acknowledging basic human dignity is a divisive political act, to be avoided because of video games. that's all on you. Do better.

Saebyeolbe doing finger guns at Jake across the stage. Jake motions like he's throwing and detonating a mine. Both crack up. 🤩.

Apologyman actually pulled up that 2nd photo on his phone so we could reference it for his portraits. I'd say we nailed it.

"4. Capcom gets the right to use stream footage and any photos or videos from the tournament". If this is correct, I will not be working any event that has accepted this agreement with Capcom.
As promised, I wrote an article explaining Capcom's new licensing structure, what its community event license entails, what its esports event license could mean, why it may be doing this, and what I think about it. Let me know if you have any questions!.

You can't take the effort to wear a mask and I'm supposed to believe you took the effort to get vax'd? Or tested? FOH.

Smash TO's, I've been lenient about this but it's getting silly. If I didn't shoot your event, I don't want to see my photos in your promos.

@toph_bbq 👀?
This kid was waiting outside hoping to see his favorite player @DabuzSenpai walk by. So I took him inside, found his favorite player, let them have some small talk, took a photo, and then watched him run away with excitement. Hope we made a good birthday memory. @SmashWorldTour

Cannot overstate how harmful this take is. My hearing is damaged from years of not taking protection seriously. Even at esports events where it might not "seem" that loud, you're spending hours and hours around elevated sound levels, screaming crowds, etc. Protect your hearing.

Hard to believe that today is Overwatch League's final day at the Blizzard arena. This was Inaugural Season Day 1, 2018.

Since @thisislijoe asked so nicely, here is my #Evo2023 gallery! . It's my biggest ever, at over 400 photos. If you come across something you like, feel free to share. Just link back to the gallery so other people can enjoy, too.

In the 2019 OWL season, I delivered 11,000 photos. In what might be my most ambitious culling ever, I narrowed my favorites down to under 100. Check it out:

@casskhaw Spent 10 years in IT . quit at 32 when I realized I was miserable, and went into photography full-time. At 33 I won an award for said photography. 34 now and have more opportunities and a brighter future than ever.

Hello fellow freelancers! Overwatch League's first large-scale live event in over 2 years starts on Thurs. If you're working with an OWL team, the League will likely send you a "Certificate of Results & Proceeds" for you to sign. You need to be very aware of what this doc is!.

Sipping a cocktail on a rooftop bar, in Bangkok, on my birthday, wondering what my life is. Can't imagine where I'd be without photography, without esports, without Overwatch. I'm doing in a month what some people don't get to do their entire lives. Grateful for every day of it.

@CrispyTacoz I found out recently that they didn't even come out of the case, they're just plastic domes lit up by an LED underneath. 😭.

Hey if you're angry about a $15/hr min wage because it edges too close to the salary you "got an education" for, maybe take that energy to your own fight for better wages instead of punching down at minimum wage workers who have BEEN fighting.
