There is only so much that you can do when you are bored late at night. For me, one of my go-to's is to take photos of myself. I'm blessed to have an iPhone 14 Pro, so why not make use of the powerful camera lenses within? I've also got a multitude of lighting options here at the house. It would be a shame if I didn't regularly take advantage of all of this equipment.

For today's photos, I posed in front of my glowing alien light in my bathroom. This was a gift to me and I love it so much. I mainly am glad that I have it because it is the perfect night light, but it also just looks super cool. Pink and blue is one of my favorite color combinations.

I had just showered and was about to be chilling for the rest of the night after a long day of work. This of course means I was shirtless because that's how I always am around the house. So if you are afraid of nipples, you better get away from this post as soon as possible.

One thing I'm not a professional at is posing. That was always the most difficult part during my time working at a portrait studio in my college years. It's one thing to have to stage other human beings, but to figure out what to do yourself can be even more awkward. I just try to do things that I would naturally already do. You know, stuff like leaning on a wall, crossing my arms, flexing, thinking, or just pointing. There really is a lot that you can do if you're willing to let loose and not be afraid to be yourself.

This was a fun way to spend 30 minutes or so. The part that takes the longest is setting up the lights properly and getting my tripods in the perfect position. As you can see, that alien head just barely is within the frame in every photo. I thought that was essential for these particular photographs.

I hope you enjoyed getting to see more photos of me. I don't have anybody else to take photos of right now, so this is what you get.
