POPTPreview

ALRIGHT!

Here is a PopTpoP from yesterday. REALLY this is a sort of preview-but-its-still-itself-technically-a-poptpop, but thats sort of a mouthful.

I'll post two shots of Bryan during our shoot (well, his, but I shot part of it too) for Portico Magazine.

They are "previews" because they are shot on my phone and are hardly high quality. But also I shot various frames of film during the shoot too.

SO LOOK OUT WORLD. IT'S COMING!


And yes the second photo is clearly the least flattering poptpop yet. Perhaps an award for bryan.

/Rob Culpepper Week | Thank you rob!

Thanks so much to Rob "the rob" Culpepper "The Culpepp", aka DJ Skullpepper.

He leaves us with this pithy description of this long-range, epic Poptpop.

At a campground north of Malibu, Cali.








Indeed, sir.

DANGEROUS! OVERLOOK! DOUBLE POPTPOP!

Remember this text?

Mentone, Ala. is the home of Alabama's only ski slope. There's also the show-stopping Desoto Falls not too far away. The fruit there is ripe for the picking, as I got a double (see the second person behind the tree) and a PoptVop (Pictures of people taking Videos of people), a near cousin. This could also be known as a Multimedia Poptpop or a PoptMpop (Pictures of people taking Motion pictures of people).



Here's the payoff.


ROB CULPEPPER ACTIVATE.


he's got a new website on the way.

A POPTPOP RUNS THROUGH IT?

SQUAT STANCE! ACTIVATE!

ROB CULPEPPER DAY TWO! Above, a Glorious, glorious Squat Stance. Below is Rob's description of just wtf a squat stance is.

My personal favorite part is the dude in the red shrit.

Squat Stance: One time Caleb and I were at a wedding and he made fun of my squat stance. That is, the posture my body makes when I need to get lower to shoot someone at the waist and keep the perspective right. Everyone has a squat stance and once you're aware of them, it's hilarious to watch photographers make pictures because you're aware of how funny they look. They, of course, are doing what seems natural and therefore have no idea how dumb they look. On a walk to Speakeasy one evening after work, we passed this photographer (and body guard in red) shooting a couple. Check out that Squat Stance!

ROB CULPEPPER WEEK! ALL CULPEPPER ALL THE TIME ALL WHERES RIGHT NOW!

So here it is. A SURPRISE WEEK FULL OF ALL ROB-CULPEPPER-BRAND POPTPOPs. whats with the all caps? IT'S ROB!

We are starting off easy here...gotta ease you in a little bit.

This is Rob's photo of Caleb photographing Matthew Mayfield (this shoot). This is up on the roof of the Phoenix Building with tiny tips of Birmingham peeking over the roof ledge thing.
