After Vu finished shooting the other day, I changed the lighting setup he had a little bit and shot some of Bonny. Here is one of the first shots, I wanted to make a plastic looking Bonny.

Yesterday Bonny and I went to Candice and Mark Brooke’s housewarming party. We had a great time playing croquet, spoons and apples to apples. A few of the photographers that showed up were Vu Bui, Aaron Dieppa, Anna Joy, Ryel J, Amy and Aaron, Victor Sizemore, Brian Khang, Jessica Claire, Michael Norwood, David Lee, Gracie, and Christian Kadsen (I’m sure I’m missing someone… send me an email if I missed you).
Yesterday I had the great chance to eat lunch with George Ruiz (Head of New Media, Senior Vice-President Business Affairs at ICM, link, link, link). I met George after doing a photo shoot of Veronica Belmont, George is Veronica’s agent (as well as many other talented people).
We had some great conversations about new media, old media and something lots of us don’t think about… what will we see when we look back on all of this new media stuff.
Well, during our walk to eat lunch I did a 30 second photo shoot of George. Literally 3o seconds, and building security was already there. So here is what you can get from me in a 30 second photo shoot:
Unfortunately I did not edit this video, but it inspires me to make a save the date in this style.
Today I got to shoot the Ru family finally. We have been talking about it for months and finally we got to do it. Check out these beautiful people:
Today was such a great day!!! I got to go with Aaron Dieppa to shoot Carrie and Daniel at Laguna Beach. I was very excited to shoot them because I remembered when we first met how fun they were. Another reason is because we will be shooting their wedding in Cancun, Mexico at the Dreams Resort.
After the photo shoot we ate at the Las Brisas Restaurant; Daniel and I ordered the same thing, Ono fish with a seafood enchilada. All I have to say is that was the best fish I’ve had in a long time. We ate and had a great time, maybe too good of a time for a fancy place like that. I think we were the loudest bunch there.
Here is another great photograph of Veronica Belmont from the headshot shoot we did the other day.
Something very interesting about this park we were at was that all of the benches and picnic tables were unique. One had a big rock protruding through it; another was cut in half. The one behind Veronica in this photograph was actually a bridge over a small stream (I wish I took some establishing shots of the area).
The set-up for this shot was very simple, Veronica was sitting on the bench/bridge with her feet over the water. I stood on some rocks in the stream with the big open blue sky behind me. Veronica was shaded by a big tree.
Yesterday Vu, Keats and I went to Studio 1-on-1 in Venice, CA to photograph Eddie Grey for some promotional images he will be using soon. Here are some of my picks from the shoot:
