Read MoreAttention Female & Male Models: An artist friend of mine created an inspiring piece of art that he has turned into an amazing t-shirt design. Part of the proceeds from the shirt sales will go directly to a charity that the artist has chosen which I also consider amazing. This is a non-paid shoot, but it is definitely a great opportunity for both a guy & a girl looking to add a commercial shot to their portfolio. Plus, you’ll get to keep the t-shirt that you model as compensation. If you have an interest, please submit photos of yourself below along with the following information. I will present the best 5 girl & 5 guy submissions to the artist who...

They want a model with a very beautiful, commercial face who can give off a flirty, but nerdy look!

Read MoreIs anyone else super excited about the Apple Keynote Speech coming up this Monday? Rumor has it that the iPhone 4G will be released! After reading about the keynote on the 4G Operating System which includes folders & multi-tasking, my fellow iPhone users & I are pretty stoked about it. For those of you who haven’t seen it yet, here is the video of the leaked iPhone 4G. TWO CAMERAS? That’s right folks! Video phone conferencing will go to a whole new playing field. Companies like Skype should expect a huge increase in the usage of their applications. I also want to make note that Apple finally attached a flash! I will really be excited if they...
Read MoreI cannot believe how fast May passed this year. So much has happened & I have kept so busy, but I feel like I’ve accomplished a lot in the past 30 days. One of the things that excites me the most is that I finally put my photography in a gallery. I have wanted to for years now & I finally took the time to get everything organized. I’ll eventually get a couple photos of the display to show all of you. For anyone in the St. Louis area, feel free to drop by Urban:Art/Gallery 101 on Main Street in Collinsville, IL. This is the most recent photo I’ve added to my art portfolio. I took this last fall, but just now got around to it. Hope you love it....

Read MoreI got a call from my friend Tyler Sickmeyer a couple weeks ago highly recommending having this band called Sixteen Cities play at Render while they were on tour here in the Midwest. He played a couple of their songs & convinced me immediately upon hearing. Let me just say, not only are these guys talented musicians, but they have sincere hearts & they’re just all around great guys. They led worship at Render Sunday night & also played a set of their own music. I could not have asked for a better way to celebrate Render’s 4th birthday and I know everyone who attended would agree. Through a chain of events, we ended up nailing down a time for a...
Read MoreI have discussed the Apple iPad several times in the past few weeks, mostly with my brother Blake Weber. I think anyone who owns an iPhone or an iPod Touch wants to wrap their mind around why they would want this sleek new gadget. We started listing some of the iPhone Apps that we really like for what we thought could be much more useful on a bigger screen. Mail, Photos, iBook, or anything Apple features in their commercials for the iPad strike me as obvious apps that would be more useful, but something that Blake & I agreed on that would greatly improve is board game apps. My sister & brother-in-law recently introduced us to Settlers of Catan & without a...
