Orange Coast Magazine: February 2010

My first shoot of this year was for Orange Coast Magazine; and what a shoot it was! I was called to photograph the owners of Alice Supply Co., a super cute hip houseware collection . Seeing their collection of colorful supplies from plungers to hoses, I had to come up with a fun way to photograph them, and I did just that!

Coming up with a silly concept the ladies were enthusiastic and excited to shoot! And as you can see in the pictures, we had a lot of fun! Check out the final image!



I walked away from this shoot soaked from the knee's down! I didn't have a large enough piece of plexi but I didn't care, I got my shot and had a blast in doing so!

Here it is printed in this month's Orange Coast Magazine!

Angeleno Magazine: February 2010

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hello 2010!

Boy oh boy did things get busy towards the end of the year! The month of December flew by so quickly that I didn't even get to post any new work and news! But you'd better believe I've been busy! Getting called for shoots right before Christmas, day's before the new year rings, and days after we stepped into 2010...its been nonstop!

With it being a new year comes new goals, not resolutions, but goals! I'm making my list of people to contact, magazines to introduce myself and my work to, and companies to start working/collaborating with! Reading a quote a few days ago its stuck in my mind...

"Draw a line. Live above it." - unknown.

Here's a little blurb from a book I keep by my night stand and read often: "You can achieve the unachievable. Firstly you need to aim beyond what you are capable of. You must develop a complete disregard for where your abilities end. If you think you're unable to be on the cover of TIME magazine, make it your business to be there. Make your vision of where you want to be a reality. Nothing is impossible" from the book "It's not how good you are, its how good you want to be" by Paul Arden.

So, I'm stepping into this near year with a drive and motivation to make some new contacts, get more work with new magazines, and more than anything, take more pictures!

Riviera Magazine: November 2009

It's November and time for new work to be published! ...And this time all the way out in San Diego, California!

I got called to photograph Sandra Equihua, illustrator for Nickeloden! She recently won her first Emmy for her character designs on "El Tigre, The Adventures of Manny Rivera" (Nickeloden). She co-creates the show with her long time collaborator and husband Jorge R. Gutierrez and what a team they are! Having their first child, Luka, they are a wonderful group and I am very lucky to have met such a great family/team. Our photo shoot was a ton of fun and seeing it in print is pretty exciting.

Here is our photo shoot!





In the magazine!

Flying in a helicopter with the LAPD!

I had the opportunity to accompany Marshall LaPlante, photographer, and the LAPD on an amazing flight in a helicopter around Los Angeles. No words can really describe how awesome this was but I definitely took quite a lot of pictures. Here are just a few of the many images I have...











You better believe I'm going to be printing these huge. Let me know if you'd like a print!

Angelino Magazine: October 2009

Out in this month's issue of Angelino is a portrait that I took of Angella Nazarian. She is promoting her new book "Life as a Visitor"; out now!

Meeting Angella at her home in Bel Air we quickly got to work! Photographing her in her amazing home was great, the only hard part was controlling myself on not shooting too much!

Here is our section in the magazine!


...and here is my pick!
