Keep Moving

So school is now over for the semester. I talked with my teacher Walter Urie(awesome guy/photographer) and he gave me some good advice with the direction I should take my photography. So what I did with his advice was increase the amount of photoshoots im doing. Some will be paid some will be personal work. But I will be doing 1-3 photoshoots a week for the rest of the summer with different bands, business owners, and groups. I want to focus my photography on musicians, but I want to still do portraits of business owners in LA/OC. So if you are in a band or own a restaurant or another interesting business give me call or shoot me an email!

I love working with groups

Earlier this week I did a group photoshoot with a bunch of my local friends that were all kind enough to come out and model for me!

The Concept for this was to have the two main guys convey the emotion of anger...and I did it! Im thinking of doing a series with all these people. That is still being thought out though. I have another idea for a series as well...buuut ill just show that to you in a little while once its all done. Possible book concept? MAYBE!

Heres a shot i took while waiting for a few things to happen before i started the shoot... Its Carli V. And Daniel Curtis Lee(google him!).

I was looking at Lisa Wiseman's Blog and she led me to an amazing photographer named Phillip Toledano. His website is of his last days with his father who has now passed away. Its really quite touching, check it out.

Saturday

Hey! So recently I have been on spring break... oh if you didn't know I am a photography student at OCC in costa mesa...anyways! I went to san diego at the beginning of this week, sadly no camera was taken with me though. It was a last minute trip at 5am on a monday morning. But anways recently I did a photography shoot with an old friend who just happens to look good in front of my lens! Her name is Rosanne and thats her below! The girl in the yellow and below is Vivian. She was great to work with! Lots of fun, she was totally down to climb a tree and do some other exciting stuff. I had a great time with all these people!

I just love how much mystery is in this photograph. I love the colors of the afternoon sun hitting the sides of the trees, as well as lighting her. To view these full pictures just click on them, blogspot.com likes to clip my pictures because i suppose they are too large?

My first Blog

Hello and welcome to my world! this whole thing is just going to be ridden with my bad grammar, spelling, adventures, trips, and MANY MANY photos. I will post a new blog at least once a week with everything in my life...at least everything i decide to share with you.

I am a 21 year old photographer out of LA county with a strong passion for music and art in general really. You can see some of my photography work HERE.

heres some stuff i have done in the past:

and here is some more recent work of mine.




This is one of my favorites of my recent photographs I have made. This was taken somewhere in northern california, im not sure exactly what city we were in but, this is my close friend and he loves surfing! This is him checking out the waves before we went out. I think it just really shows him in a state of relaxation, a feeling of this is where he should be, doesnt need to go anywhere but here. And I love the way the door is open but he just has to take another moment, just cause. But hey its 5am so what do I know?! GOOD NIGHT!
