What good amid these, O me, O life? Answer. That you are here—that life exists, and identity; That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.Mood: catalyzed catalyzedPosted at 2:49 AM Feb 8 view more

  • Heroes

    “In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have never achieved his title. Do not lose your knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind and a step that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours.” Ayn Rand ..

About me:

The name is Thomas Gordon. YES, I am a guy. The pretty woman on this site or in my pics are models or people who are interested in modeling for me. There ya go. So please stop assuming I am them and please stop asking me to hook you up. Is not going to happen. :D .. ..


.. .. Ok, you are reading this for a reason. Either you like my pics, or you are curious about scheduling a shoot? Or you are just stalking me for some bizarre reason. So what do you need to know? .. ..


.. .. Website: http://www.gordonslifephoto.com/ Myspace: http://www.myspace.com/gordonslife FaceBook: http://www.facebook.com/gordonslifephoto Twitter: http://twitter.com/GordonsLife MM: http://www.modelmayhem.com/gordonslife In addition to being a photographer, I am a lot of things: Father, husband, soccer coach, college mentor, blogger, healthcare negotiations guru. I also study Wing Chun Kung Fu -what Bruce Lee studied in Hong Kong as a matter of fact. Watch the movie Ip Man if you want to see it in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBk1RVobbAY In fact everyone in my house studies martial arts and/or is very well trained in combatives. So stalkers beware or at least be very polite. :-) Other than that, I have a graduate degree, am well read and and can talk your ear off if you let me. :-) I am a stock photographer in the Hampton Roads area, but I also shoot other styles and am also a freelance photographer for the following companies: .. ..


.. .. VERNATO.COM Harris Publishing Company The LastCall Magazine, Virginia Edition ALIEN BOYS Apparel www.AlienBoys.com Nations CLothing Company www.nationsclothing.com BROGEN/BrosGeneration Clothing Synergi Group - Events including the Womens Success Conferences USMC - Toys for Tots Campaign .. ..


.. .. My studio equipment includes: 4 AlienBees B800 Flash Units and I shoot with a CANON EOS-5D MARK II I am always looking for new models to work with so if you are looking to get started in this business give me a shout and I will see what I can do. New models always welcome. .. ..


.. .. YES, ESCORTS ARE OK. That being said, I strongly prefer to shoot without husbands or boyfriends looking over my shoulder, models can of course bring along unobtrusive escorts that do not stay on set. The escorts MUST be quiet and please do not look to them for advice on shooting but instead stay focused on me. It is a major pet peeve of mine. Regardless, I would much rather you just contacted any of the models or photographers that have worked with me and/or checked references. .. ..


.. .. Here is access to a public blogpost with numerous comments from people I have worked with, so please look at it: http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=118501496&blogId=482938902 Regarding minors, I insist upon meeting or speaking to a parent or guardian, and actually prefer them to stay on set with the child. I NEVER ever shoot without a signed model release. No model release no shoot. Also if you schedule and then blow me off for a shoot, don't expect to shoot with me again... and for the record a cell phone call or text message cancelling an hour before because you stayed out late drinking and can't get your butt out of bed does not cut it. Other than that e-mail is the best way to contact me: tom@gordonslifephoto.com Thanks again and looking forward to working with you! :-) .. ..


.. .. "The Longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one thing we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you we are in charge of our ATTITUDES."

Who I'd like to meet:

I am always looking for new models to work with so if you are looking to get started in this business give me a shout and I will see what I can do. New models are always welcome. I am also interested in meeting and networking with folks who need photography services or are just interested in the business. E-mail is the best way to contact me: tom@gordonslifephoto.com Thanks and looking forward to working with you! :-) ..
