DIY Passport Photo

I need a new passport and hence a new photo. You can do it yourself, rather than pay $10 for some horrible polaroid. The State Department's Guidelines outline how the lighting and the composition need to be. This article from ephotozine talks about editing you need to do in photoshop. The best part is that I can fit six of these on a 4x6 print that costs me $.19 at the photostore. Actually, the best part is that I can take 50 pictures and pick the one I like best.

I have to thank Aaron [above] for taking the pictures of me. We did it on Saturday while checking out art galleries in Chelsea. There's lot of great spaces with plain white backgrounds and even lighting.

Hi. I'm a 32 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.
