SONIC BOOM!

The great thing about photography is there are so many different kinds that if you don't like concert and band photography like I do, there's nature, fashion, product and architecture. Click here for a full list.

i recently had the opportunity to see a local fashion photographer Sonic work his magic. He had his shoot in the garage of his house and i was just a fly on a wall trying to pick up some pointers. I'll admit that fashion photography isn't my thing but i really have a great appreciation for it. There are so many pieces to the puzzle. You have a photographer, model, makeup artist, stylist, sometimes a location scout and things can get a bit stressful. Sonic gave me an inside look on how things are done. This was my view from the shoot.

311 Day 2010 Visual Recap

I've been a long time fan of 311, not as long as some, but a big fan nonetheless.

311 has a 3-11 Day celebration every two years where they play a 5 hour set a million songs and throw some circus acts in between sets. i was lucky to have photo privileges throughout the show and this is what i saw...

Cancun - Day 1

Many of you might know this already, but I'm in Cancun, Mexico right now. I flew in Thursday afternoon. I'm here to shoot a wedding for Nate and Rosie. A couple that I have never met in my life until last night. I have Jennifer Miller to thank for this opportunity.

Friday i took some time to head down to the beach in Cancun before i had to go to Playa del Carmen.

EXES OF EVIL Photo shoot

I consider myself to be very blessed in many ways than one. I have a family that loves me, people around me that push me creatively and experiences that have made my life very sweet.

Today i find myself in Ojai, California where i met Ryan and Evan who are the genuises behind this new music project called EXES OF EVIL. I met Ryan years ago when he was the frontman for The Rivalry and I met Evan back when he started touring with 311 as a production assistant. Both guys are great people and extremely musically talented and when they asked to me shoot some promo shots for them i jumped at the opportunity. we shot around and this is what we came up...

D&T and Me

I hung out with Davia and Tejah last night and had dinner at this fancy place called Chateau In-N-Out. Food was good and the conversation was even better.

The both times i hung out with Davia, she's forgotten her keys and both times she's had to break into her house... this time i caught it on tape.
