I Love Ryan Russell. His Photos? Ehh, not so much.

Have you ever been asked, "If you could trade places with anyone for one day who would it be?" I can remember being asked this three different times in my life. My answers were the President of the United States, Oprah and Britney Spears. Yeah, I really did say Britney Spears. But I only gave those answers because there really wasn't anyone I envied enough to trade with. I now have my answer to that question. Actually two answers, the first would be Stephen Christian, who is living his life the way I wish I was living mine. My second answer would have to be Ryan Russell. I'd like to think that 10 years down the road my life will be similar to his. Ryan Russell is a photographer, I tried my best to be picky about the photos I'm putting on here, but I wasn't extremely successful. Feast your eyes upon a few of the reasons I'd like to walk a mile...or five in Ryan Russell's shoes. Prepare for an obnoxious amount of photographs.

And now for the main reason I want to be Ryan Russell... Ben Gibbard, Death Cab For Cutie/The Postal Service


Matt Rubano, Taking Back Sunday


Fred Mascherino, The Color Fred


A little something for Kynslie (pretend that's a bubble gum cigarette)...Max Bemis, Say Anything/Two TonguesCartel

Tom Delonge, Angels and AirwavesAnberlin
Gerard Way, My Chemical Romance (Is anybody else getting a Michael Jackson vibe from this photo? I think it's the nose...and the jacket.)

And let's end with a whole lotta Adam. (And no, I will not take the blame for featuring too many pictures of Adam Lazzara. It's really not my fault that a photogenic person and a great photographer have come in contact one to many times.)
