G11 Test Run

2010-03-30T13:21:00.000-05:00

I've been wanting the G11 for a while, so I finally pulled the trigger. I literally just got it in the mail, but here are some test shots I took around the house. So far I'm pretty impressed, it's going to be fun to carry this around all day / every day.

The swivel screen is great for stupid self photos like this.

I didn't want to take my bulky external flash out last night, so all of these were taken with the Nifty Fifty (50mm 1.8). I'm in the process of putting together a few video clips I shot during Just Blaze's set, check back for that in a few days.

Here's another trailer for a wedding I shot alongside Merge Studios. Hope you enjoy, that last shot is probably my favorite thing I've ever done at a wedding.

Ghostwridah "Still Not Famous"

2010-03-18T10:54:00.000-05:00

Here is some in studio footage my boy Julien (Merge Studios) got of Ghostwridah. I've said it before, but I love the energy of this hot new artist. It's going to be great to see where both he and his music are in a year or two. Keep working hard my brother, the sky is truly the limit!

Look for a photo project between myself and Ghostwridah in the near future. Until then, enjoy this great clip.

Hometown Downtown

2010-03-03T00:46:00.000-05:00

The weather the other day was perfect and I didn't have any shoots booked, so I took the opportunity to aimlessly walk around downtown. Here are some of the things that caught my eye, as you can see I am still pretty obsessed with patterns/textures.

Lead in lines!

My favorite shot of the day.

All blue everything.

This guys was washing his fake dog (which he had tied to a leach).

There's a bike there.

Heaven

2010-02-19T17:28:00.001-05:00

I was shooting a fundraiser last night when I overheard the owner of the house talking about his car collection, after the event was over I made my way to his garage.

To be honest I should have taken a lot more pictures but I was completely in shock. I've been to a lot of big houses and seen plenty of nice cars but this blew me away.

Doing Great Deeds

2010-02-11T20:55:00.000-05:00

Yesterday GMC donated 30 Sierra trucks filled will supplies to Haiti and hired us to be there and document as they were departing. It was a great to see such a great deed in the making.

I'll try to post more pictures from the day at some point, but for now look at this picture I took, which got Published by Reuters - I found it on Yahoo! News.

Click here (check the photo credit).

The Cool Bowl

2010-02-08T03:05:00.003-05:00

I absolutely love taking performance pictures - as I have said on here before - going on tour with an artist is one of my top goals as a photographer.

The green room was pretty packed, I barely snapped any pictures in there.

Support the Last Rights movement, I love what these guys are doing for Miami.

Local up and comer GhostWridah opened up the show. I was beyond impressed with this guys music/performance.

Dom Kennedy was up next.

Currensy came in to wrap it up.

My favorite shot of the night...

Check back soon for pictures from the couple days I spent with Jordin Sparks.

Tripod Test Drive

2010-01-29T21:17:00.004-05:00

It's Friday night and I'm bored at home, so I decided to take the tripod outside for a little test run. I'm not too happy with this photo, but I guess its better than nothing.

Now it's back to resting before a fun filled weekend of filming and shooting.

Today

2010-01-27T03:02:00.002-05:00

I walked around with my camera all day today...what's funny is that I did all my walking within my house.

These are test runs for a new series I'm thinking of doing.

This really looks like a face to me.

Monkey see...

...monkey do.

It's kinda like walking and chewing gum at the same time...

Here are a few pictures that have accumulated on my memory card while I've been driving around town working on my new series "Up in Smoke".

The focus is wrong in this picture, but I had to post it anyways...come on, it's a dog wearing a sock.

Party Pirates?

This picture perfectly portrays these two's passions....if you know them, then you get it.

There's a dog in there...

I'll try to post the photos from the 1st half soon.

Iowa won.

S90...oh my!!

2009-12-24T16:03:00.005-05:00

Canon continues to make my dreams come true!!!! Check out their new point and shoot, which includes a completely manual mode (like SLRs), a 28-105mm lens which shoots at f/2 wide open, great low light image quality (ISO goes to 3200) and video option (not HD, but who cares!)....oh it is also RAW capable.

Not to mention the all black no non sense design and HUGE LCD display.

This would be a perfect camera to carry around in my pocket on the daily.

It goes both ways...

2009-12-17T16:52:00.004-05:00

Here are some pictures that have accumulated on my camera the last few days.

Saw AfroBeta the other night at a new spot in Wynwood.

After we headed to Pop Life for Treasure Fingers.

We also put up our Christmas tree this week. I was loving all the bokeh!

Clouds of course.

Sasha loves photo shoots.

Last night I dropped by the D.A.D.E. warehouse to drop off my prints for Saturday.....while chilling a little skate sesh broke out on the mini ramp with Rob and the hommie Keen. I was mad that I didn't have my wide lens or flash with me...ugh!

Come By!!!

2009-12-15T21:50:00.001-05:00

Pass by this Saturday to get 50% - 75% off your favorite local brands, my photo prints, and rare kicks from Shoe Gallery/ATC.

All while enjoying BBQ, a mini ramp and great music!

Bokeh

2009-12-14T00:53:00.001-05:00

I couldn't choose which one of these pictures to post, so you get both!

Up in Smoke

2009-12-11T15:34:00.003-05:00

I've been fascinated for a while by the different ways people hold cigarettes. You can tell a lot about a person by the placement of their fingers or a certain attitude they have while holding their smokes.

Either way, this is the first photo I have taken for a series I am working on called "Up in Smoke" which will be displayed at a gallery in early January.

Let me know if you're interested in participating. All photos used will be tight on the hands and b/w like the one below.

Art Basel Day 4

2009-12-09T22:07:00.003-05:00

So, here are the last set of photos from Art Basel.

This picture perfectly sums up Basel for me.

On Sunday me and the lady started off at Photo Miami, which was my favorite gallery of the year (yeah, really shocking I know).

These look like regular pictures of Brad and Angelina, but take a closer look.

Those are all raisins.

Next up was Art Miami.

This was a HUGE ultra glossy surf board fin.

I'm putting together some video clips that I accumulated throughout the week, I'll be posting it in the next few days.

Art Basel Day 3

2009-12-09T01:45:00.007-05:00

I started my third night of Art Basel by passing by the hommie Logan Real's opening. Remember Logan?

It was great to see how much he has grown as an artist. We have both come a long way and learned a lot in the last few years.

His canvas work is amazing, sorry I mean LEATHER work.

Here are some other pieces in the gallery.

After we went to check out Peter Tunney at AE District.

This happened on the way to the car.

The third stop of the night was Fountain, where we chilled with Andy.

We passed by Eat Your Art Out again for a little bit, Dhavi's favorite part was the stairs.

I don't know what this gallery was called, but it was pretty amazing. I could have stayed there for a few more hours taking pictures.

These guys made this crazy light box.

My favorite pictures of the night. I need more time in this room!

Walk backs to the car are always entertaining.

Checkout my Flickr for more.

Art Basel Day 2

2009-12-06T19:51:00.004-05:00

The Stages opening was the first stop on Day 2 of Art Basel.

I can't begin to describe how I feel about Jose Parla's work.

These speakers were actually functioning.

<

The space was amazing.

Moving bar.

Check out how much it cost to put together.

Do I really need to tell you who this is?

The next stop of the night was Easy Street Gallery for the opening of Eat Your Art Out.

I love this piece by the hommie ABSTRK.

Once again I ended my night at Max Fish. It was great to see Donte Ross, Jose Parla, Neckface and Erick Haze in the house....legends for real!

R.I.P. Sace.

The silly string started flying towards the end of the night.

Art Basel Day 1

2009-12-05T19:52:00.002-05:00

My first stop on Wednesday was the Primary Flight opening on Lincoln Road.

Revok

I caught Mike Giant outside.

Next stop was the Miguel Paredes opening.

I ran into this while walking to the Primary Flight after party at The Shore Club.

Here are some flicks of the live painting that was going on at The Shore Club.

At around 3am we decided to head to Max Fish, here is a sneak peak of the Krink wall they have in the courtyard out back. I'll post more pictures of it tomorrow.

2009-12-01T14:13:00.004-05:00

Sorry for the lack of updates lately, but the last few days have been nuts.

Keep checking back for all kind of Art Basel updates.

Johhny Robles

2009-11-25T02:20:00.001-05:00

Here is just one of Johnny's walls during Basel.

I saw this small piece of his while driving around.

Art Basel Warm Up

2009-11-25T02:10:00.004-05:00

I drove around Wynwood today with the hommie Chris (Culture Kings) to take some flicks and pass by some gallery spaces in order to get a sneak peak of what's to come. Here are just a few of the pictures I snapped.

I would show you the pictures of the galleries, but I wouldn't want to ruin it for you. Just make sure to drop by Graffiti Gone Global and Eat Your Art Out.

I still love the Primary Flight Wall

Fed Up

2009-11-21T00:56:00.003-05:00

Here are some pictures I managed to snap while helping out on the set of Khaled's new single "Fed Up" featuring Jeezy, Rick Ross, Usher and Drake.

This was the last scene shot after a day of boat chases with helicopters, car/motorcycle chases with Maybachs and performances on a helicopter pad. I really can't wait to see the finished product.

I also shot some behind the scenes video, but I'll let DerickG (the real BTS photog) do what he wishes with those....stay tuned!

Once again it was a pleasure working with Gil Green, Dayo and the rest of the 305 Films family.

Miami Style

2009-11-18T23:24:00.002-05:00

Hmmmm Basel is in the air, with that being said here are some pictures I took on Sunday while a mural was going up on North Miami Ave and 29th. Pass by to see the finished product.

Young Money - Bed Rock

2009-11-18T16:54:00.003-05:00

Here are a couple of pictures the hommie DerickG snapped of me working on set of the video for Young Money's new single "Bed Rock" ft. Lloyd.

Click here to see more pictures from the day. A huge shout out and thanks to Gil, Dayo and the whole 305 Films family - it has been a pleasure working with you guys.

Spliff Star

2009-10-22T16:01:00.004-05:00

Here are some pictures from a quick shoot I did with one of hip hops greatest hypemen recently (before the 7D). Look out for a lot more from Spliff in the near future.

He was loving this special edition bottle that Henessy made for President Obama.

JAE MILLZ

2009-10-22T01:13:00.002-05:00

I was invited to the JAE MILLZ shoot for DUB Magazine today, so here are some flicks I snapped. A huge shout out goes out to MILLZ, Aubrey and Last Rights (their new collection is incredible, check it HERE).

Of course cars.

7D Geek Out!!!

2009-10-15T21:11:00.004-05:00

So, I finally got my 7D in the mail and of course I had to take it out for a spin. So far I'm really impressed with this camera, only thing that sucks is that PhotoShop doesnt recognize the RAW files that it spits out yet. Hopefully Adobe releases the plug in soon!

I took these to test the camera at high ISO settings.

I love the effect the fog on my lens gave these two.

And of course VIDEOS!!!

Glow in the Dark - A MUST HAVE!

2009-10-14T16:32:00.003-05:00

One of my many goals in photography is to go on tour with an artist and capture their interaction with fans from city to city, with that being said this book is a must have for me.

The photography by Nabil Elderkin looks amazing and truly inspiring.

Engagement

2009-09-18T17:26:00.004-05:00

Julien (Merge Studios) hired me to cover his engagement party this past weekend, here are just a few of my favorite shots from the night.

I feel like Ben Stiller in Meet the Parents when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave.That was Taylor's moment and I'm sorry.

N.E.R.D.

2009-09-14T14:22:00.003-05:00

Here are flicks from the N.E.R.D. concert on Saturday. I was in front by the stage for a bit but it was crazy hot, so I decided to cover the mosh pit/crowd instead. Besides I'm sure you already know what Pharrell looks like.

Buck 15 Opening

2009-09-09T00:03:00.004-05:00

As most of you know a series of my photos will be displayed at Buck 15 (on South Beach) for the entire month of September. Here are some pictures from the opening party on Sunday. Btw, all prints are FOR SALE.

It was a special night, so I decided to process the pictures in a special way.

Babe, this night would not have been possible without you in more ways than one. Your the best, love you!!!

The turnout was insane, I never thought this many people would come out - thank you all for the support, it means more to me than you will ever know.

BP3 Commercial

I don't know how good the album is going to be, but this commercial is great. Take a look as Jay recreates all of his album covers.

Kiki Valdes

2009-08-21T15:28:00.003-05:00

Amazing artist and friend Kiki Valdes was being filmed by a local TV station yesterday, so he had me drop by his studio and snap some flicks. It's crazy to see how much his art has evolved through the years - his new technique of layering pieces of canvas and the texture in his work is incredible. I was pretty much like a kid in a candy store.

Oh yeah, if you're around 7th St and 2nd Ave look up and you will see a HUGE mural by Kiki on the side of a building. It has to be a great feeling to see your work on such a huge scale, congrats!

They had him paint on a piece of plexiglas and filmed through it to make it look as if he was painting on the lens of the camera.

Art, drinks, music and you!!!!

Come check out the new series of photos I've been working on.
