Gaining Inspiration. Got Ideas? *READ*

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 25, 2009, 3:28 AM

I feel boring! I look back on old photos and I like them again, but then I see how boring I got!

I feel like I just gained inspiration. Too bad it's 3:19am, my Photoshop randomly expired (I admit, I tried serial codes, but the one I tried said "license expired.") So I messed it up! But I only had 3 days left of my trial anyway. :( Unfortunately I have a family portrait shoot tomorrow (paid), so I'm downloading a new trial version! x.x
My sister's future husband got me CS2 last time on my old comp., but he's in the Navy and so I'm on my own with this new computer!

THE POINT IS. I've been looking at other photos and the photographer in me wants to BURST and bust out with OUTSTANDING photos and not the same old classic ones. I need creativity! CRAZY makeup, weird props, odd angles, hard contrast, different models with different looks, messy hair, trashy clothes, elegant clothes, colorful, two-color, ETC! You get the idea.

I don't need to wait on an awesome new camera to produce awesome photos now! Or a new lens. I WILL do it with what I HAVE.

But..I have to do the family portrait shoot later this day, Thanksgiving Thursday, and Black Friday shopping. Might have a shoot Tuesday. I have one person willing to model that has never done it before. Angelique owes me dress with graffiti walls photo shoot.

And most importantly...hopefully Photoshop CS4 Extended again. :(

IDEA!
As for you lovely watchers (or random readers), post a cRaZy idea you think that I CAN do. (I say can because some things are just impossible.
p.s.
I don't drive, I live in a crappy town, and I'm usually without help.

Eh, what the heck! Just post a crazy idea for the heck of it! My favorite FIVE reasonable ones (do-able!) go in a poll and you can vote.
IF I get five ideas. Three works.

I live in California, a small town between average towns. I do photography for the mere pleasure, but it's not really my life.
I adore many things, but being myself is my favorite.
My other hobby is piano and videography. I hope to get those online to share my talent.

Thank you all for supporting my work.
It means more than you know to me.

Updating My Tools

First I want a new camcorder (Canon HG10 or HF20) to start doing videography and such.
After that, I'd like to buy a new lens for my dSLR.

Someday I would like to upgrade my camera to a Canon 5D Mark II. It is but a dream now, but one day I'd like to buy one!

Stephanie!! Hi!! I was just thinking about how I have never been on DevArt at all recently and how I haven't seen your work in a while! Thought I'd stop in and say hi. And you have a facebook page?! I'll definitely fan you there. I'll keep in touch with you better that way. :D
I hope you are well! Seems like you are... you're popular!! YAAAY!!
