WIEN

2nd day in wien (vienna, heehee... trying to be all german about it) it's been a long day today. pretty much photographing at the construction site (the new vienna airport). since there is no elevator, my boss and i pretty much carried our equipment up and down the stair... and imagine the size of SFO airport... w/o any elevator, esculator, moving walkways and so forth... all you see is glass and just concrete...


i remember when i was in school and i talked to one of my instructor who was an architectural photographer before, and asked him for advice to become one... first thing he said was: it will be hard for you because you're tiny and you're a girl... you'll run into situations when the building is not complete and you have to take all your equipment with you up and down the stair... when he said that, i was really bummed and seriously thought about pumping some iron and be able to lift heavy stuff... but then after talking to von about it... i was like.. what are the possiblity that i'll photograph or assist on a shoot that the building is nowhere to be completed... so wah-lah.. here it's that chance... but guess what tonai? i was hauling shit w/o any complaint! so screw you w/ that shitty ass advice...

anyway, on w/ the really nice airport... raw buildings are sexy... and the design of it was unbelieveable! the space you see throughout the whole airport! my god! when will it be completed? my boss and i we did two shots together... mainly because i was snapping away w/ my phone, and suggested to my boss... it was great... it's nice to know that i am documenting history and being part of it all... can you imagine that once the airport is complete, no one will ever see the place at its raw form? words just can't describe it or do justice... so i'm gonna put up pictures!
