On the way to San Francisco last july 25th we had to take a detour because of a fire. it added around 2 extra hours but my Mom, Dad and I all agreed it was worth it. We had a great time and enjoyed the scenery. here is some of the pictures on the way to the San Francisco Marathon.
This is probably old news to some, but I had a little surgery to remove a none cancerous tumor. I’m all good, and it wasn’t a big deal. I get the stitches out tomorrow and just thought of sharing the only 2 pictures of the battle wound. I would like to say for the record that I hate stitches and that I really, really will never like to have anything like this again, it was very uncomfortable to sleep. its all done now, so I guess I can go back to running soon.
This next one was just for fun
Posted under PhOtOgRaPhY, blogThis show was curated by Elizabeth Digiovanni. I was in charge of taking pictures of the event, which was a total hit. the pieces were amazing. there was a lot of people and I had a great time, Thank you Elizabeth for letting me be part of this!
Among good people, good food, wine, and fire. It is always fun to talk hang outside by a fire, talk about art, and eat strawberries.
I must say that this day was just amazing!! We saw more galleries/museums than one can see in a month. Talked with the artist, learn about what they had to do to get to where they are now. Very inspiring. LA has just so much to offer. You just have to go outside and walk around. below is a collection of murals, right outside across from LACMA , and after that some pics from LAX Art . We then went to another 10+ galleries. ended the night eating Ethiopian food ( amazing), and a round around China Town to finish the day.
Summer Camp has started and its loaded with a bunch of adventures!!! Summer camp people just care about doing things that 75 percent of the group haven’t done yet. like training a condor to say “hi”, eating rocks, and under water basket weaving (which is harder than most people give it credit for! so far its been so much fun!!!
Delilah invited me to participate on the World famous mud run in Camp Pendleton. I’ve never done anything like this, so I had no idea what to expect. it was one of the funest things I have done in a while. We were in a group and we had to finish together. I’m definitely doing it next year! I will go for one of the medals!! We had the best support team in the world, my parents as usual, they came with me very early and waited for us. they are the best. anyone wants to join next years team?
Together we run
My Dad And Mom came to show support and drive me up there very early in the morning, thanks!
these pictures were by my Dad, actually almost all of them.
the end, till next year
Posted under family, friendsA weekend ago I did a pregnancy shot for Stephen and Stephanie. They are cute couple that got engaged in Disney, got marry in Disney, and it was only natural that we took the pics in Disney territory. They are such a good looking couple it was easy taking pictures. I had a great time, congrats to both of them and soon to be born baby Malvina. Here are some of the pictures.
Inspired on surrealism, specially Rene Magritte, I decided to do a shoot that would recreated in a way some of the craziness that surrealism had. Thank you to Carly Cram, Milena Merino, and Pedro Flores who helped me bring this to life. I was very happy with the results hope you like them too.
I was working on a project with the help my friend David. He was a marine. I thought of doing a series of portraits of Military people and their families, telling their stories, and how their experience might of affected them or not. How are they dealing with being out? What are they doing now? It turns out that most of the people I talked to were marines, and they had gone over seas at least 3 times. Some of this guys are a little troubled, they are still adjusting to just being just regular people. I learned that most of them have seen things I just don’t think I would be OK afterwards, and I have so much respect for what they’ve done and whatever they will do. For the next few portraits I went to some of their homes and went out for drinks a couple of times with others. Its being great to getting to know them.
