Photoshoots all weekend

Let's see where do I start. Well on friday my old friend and pretty much the guy who provoked me to get my camera is on break from college and hit me up to go shooting. So I called up my usual subject and we went to old town Pasadena. It was so rad people playing Christmas music on the streets and we initially went there to shoot near the wishing trees but they were removed for the holiday tree. We were kinda bummed so we walked around the corner and found an awesome alley! It was so cinematic. They only part that sucked about this shoot was having to lug around heavy equipment.
alone with your thoughts....



AND NOW FOR SATURDAYS SHOOT

my buddies in The Malheruex hit me up to do a photoshoot before their show (which ended up being acoustic). They got these shirts from Rockett and were hoping to get endorsed by them. So we drove to a local location and did a quick shoot it was fun and I pretty much hung out with them most of the day and went to their acoustic practice.

Scratching the late night itch

For an adventure. This is probably the best exercise you can do for yourself (as a photographer) just drive, don't plan, just drive. End up at a random place that looks nice and shoot. On the spot creativity, I've done this the past couple shoots and its preparing me for some promo work I'm going to be doing soon. Here are some good photos and extra from the batch!

Running late....

First Photo shoot with new equipment!

I recently made a huge plunge and bought the equipment I've been wanting for about a year now!
an awesome b800 with much needed accessories. I'm broke now but it was worth it!
I just need some quality glass now!!!!

Did a photo shoot last night with a couple of friends the sky was pretty cloudy so we went out. Didn't turn out as planned we got to the location (a park) too late and it was already dark out. My second idea was to use autumn leaves in the photo which is why we went to the park but they were all raked and cleaned up when we got there. So I had to improvise a bit!

and about the twilight one I was just having a little fun. Haha we were talking about twilight during the shoot and the photos kinda had that vampire-ish vibe.

MY 20TH BIRTHDAY!

I've been so afraid to turn 20! I've been a teen for 6 years!
I just fear getting old but dammit I'm still young as hell!

I had a great kickback at my house and the night got a little crazy but it was fun. A few friends stood over and we jammed all night. Around 6:30 am we went outside to clean up a bit and the sky was beautiful. I decided to take a few pictures and here's how they came out.

White Gold is.........

thats me! ^
