Joshua Tree
I made a small venture out into Joshua Tree National Park recently with my friend Conrad. Here is my favorite photo of a Joshua Tree, they remind me of something from a Dr. Seuss illustration.

So I took a much needed trip to NYC recently along with several New England cities but spending most of my time in New York. I once lived there several years ago and have debated since leaving if I want to return. Thinking it was the weather that turned me away, I realized it was actually the city. Too much city and no escape created an island fever in me and being trapped is not my favorite feeling. I much prefer the spread out landscape of California. Yes I am home.
Here are a couple of my favorite shots from my color rolls. All shot with my now partially retired rollei 35s.

My lucky airplane left an hour late due to fog

Matt and I hung out most the time, good times.

I sure love a tied up bike

my favorite color photo from the trip

I always wanted to live in that window, whoever knows the cross streets will get something in the mail.
Black and white next week…
I have mixed feelings towards San Clemente, but I love this polaroid of my friend Brandon Montoya in his old yellow bug down by Riviera. It looks like somewhere on the Mediterranean.

Sometimes I think my polaroids or my first shots of a shoot are my favorite shots. Here are two shots that I like more as polaroid than as the film shot.


I am leaving for New York tomorrow. I will be gone Jan 12-21, Here are two polaroids from days in New York years ago…

Paddle date with friends in Central park.

Williamsburg Bridge
it will be in snow when I am there tomorrow.
I have never shot maternity photos before, nor have I shot a completely nude woman (for work). Here is an outtake that I love of a recent shoot with my friends prego fiancé. She is due in two weeks. I will display a less anonymous shot later after they choose one.

I love riding bikes, here are two polaroids of me with the bike I had when I lived in Brooklyn. I just recently scanned them in. My bike here in California is much faster. Look out for me on the road, I will be riding much more often in the months to come on the streets of Orange County…


Kyle Robbins of Ciiair is quite the talented fellow. His previous line up, which I photographed, was all of his hand stained tees. This time around he asked me to photograph his cut and sew shirts. Here are my two favorite shots from the shoot. The last one is an outtake, but I like it. More will be posted on his site soon.

Steven, Brad, and Kyle all modeled the clothing.
All of these images were taken with a digital camera but I thought black and white looked the best.
