Today I'm in NYC with Trav and Bruno Mars on the Too Fast for Love tour doing a bunch of press and things, I forget how busy things are sometimes when we come to the city.

I'm about to head out on the road with my buddy Travie McCoy to do a couple of tour dates on the Too Fast for Love tour with Cobra Starship, 3 oh! 3, and I Fight Dragons. I just found out that the video for his latest single Billionaire was just released. I was actually at the filming for it, and it was actually where I got a chance to meet Greg Simkins, better know as Craola! Greg is a pretty phenomenal talent, and a pretty awesome guy! I almost recommend checking out his work before the video, you'll be a better person for it! But before that you also need to check out the work of Bruno Mars! Whom is a tremendous talent as well, and not only is featured in the video, but did alot of work on Travie's up and coming record, the Lazarus Project.

Well, its pretty unreal the news that was just bestowed upon me. My buddy Mike Relm that I photographed for Skullcandy was recently asked by Director Jon Favreau and Paramount Pictures to do and official version of his Iron Man 2 remix! He's always working on some next level stuff, but this really goes above and beyond, I really loved the first movie, and well, I know its pretty rare, but I think the sequel will be even better. I'm pretty proud of Mike, and I'm sure this is going to lead to some pretty awesome things for him, I'll have to get him a congratulatory bowl of pho next time I see him!

I am really not good with keeping up with the stuff I do. I pretty much just shoot as much as I can, try and get everything out on time. I'm so busy, that I don't even realize where all of it goes to. I know these have been out for a while, but while perusing the interweb I stumbled upon them today. So I figured better late than never to put them up here.

Here are two photos I shot of the Gudauskas Brothers, minus Dan, who I think was out of the country doing big things! We shot a bulk of this stuff at the HardRock Hotel in Las Vegas which is a pretty sweet location. I believe I'm actually going to be able to shoot there, quite a bit in the coming months, my only wish is that it wasn't in vegas, because I kinda loathe that place.

My friends over at RVCA are having an event in LA with one of my favorite artists Raymond Pettibon. I'm pretty excited for this one, Raymond's work is pretty amazing!

I recently took a trip out to Manhattan to photograph a few athletes for my friend's over at LRG during the NFL draft last week. Here are a few pics and a video that LRG had put together from the event!

One of the more exciting projects that I have been given this year to work on is the new Mixmaster headphone release for Skullcandy. Mike is a pretty remarkable artist and the headphone is really incredible. I had alot of fun getting together with him for this shoot, and we actually have quite a few more shoots to get together for so keep on the look out for that. One of the perks of shooting with him, is that he also puts on a show for you at the same time, and here are just a few of Mike's tidbits from the shoot , more to come!

Didn't have to travel too far for this one, drove down to San Clemente and hooked up with surfer Kolohe Andino, and a bunch of the Skullcandy crew to jam out a few photos for an ad that should be out in the mags now. Here's a little behind the scenes interview that the skullcandy crew put together. Hopefully I don't look too ridiculous in this one.

The guys over at Creative lives put together this awesome video on my friend Kelsey Brookes. They spent a while putting this together, and its awesome to see it finally done.

Not too long ago I went out with LRG to photograph the skate team as well as Big Sean and Cory Gunz for the LRG summer season. It was actually the first time I had ever been out there, and I was so enthralled by it all. Hopefully it won't be to long before I am out there again. It was so beautiful. Here's a video from that trip that LRG put together. Hopefully you can get a good idea of all the adventures we embarked upon this one.

So I was out today hitting up all my local spots, when I noticed the latest issue of Bliss Magazine. Bliss is a local free mag that focus's on the action sports industry. I usually have a few photos in each issue which is pretty sweet. I love checking out the mag and reading it when I am eating or something, but this time around my buddy Skinner had a pretty awesome article in this issue as well as having the cover featuring his artwork. What kinda sucked, is I found out that he didn't get any copies sent to him, so I had to run around town looking for places that carried the mag, so I could pick them up to send off to him. So if I you are a client, and I for some reason was late sending you your photos, you can blame it on this incident and if you want I can send you a copy of the mag as an apology, apparently I grabbed too many.

Last nights LRG skate video premier was nuts, I'm really proud the the team, LRG, and especially their skate team manger Tyrone! It was pretty awesome, with a guest appearence from Currency and 9th wonder to top it all off!

04.01.10

Tonight!!! The LRG Skate movie is finally here!!! its going to be sweet, get there early!

I recently did a photoshoot for my friends over at Banzi Bowls , my favorite place to eat while I am in town. I've kind of kept this on the down low for a minute, waiting for them to start using the pics, when I noticed that Greer's actually did a review on them! I'm really happy that the spot has really taken off, and if you do make it down there and you are in the mood for an acai bowl I totally recommend the Diamond Head with almond milk, its really amazing.

Its never a bad day when I can say that I spent it chillin with Snoop Dogg and of course Uncle Junebug.

Here's a pic I shot recently in venice beach with DJ Drez before he took off on his european tour. I hadn't met him until this day and I was really glad that I did, he's a really cool and sweet guy, and I look forward to hearing what else he has going on.

I know these have been out for some time now, but I was just able to get my hands on them. These figures were part of the "wayback throwback" collection that Todd James a.k.a. REAS did in collaboration with Stussy last summer. I saw these online a while ago, a knew I had to have them, I had just been really bogged down at work so it kind of slipped my mind, until this afternoon, where I had just a little time on my hands, and the will to leave the studio. I dunno what it is, but they are sitting here at my desk with me and I'm all smiles.

01.14.10

Here is the first teaser image to come out for the Creative Recreation photoshoot that I did recently in Kenya. This for sure one of my highlights from last year. It'll probably be a while till more of this stuff comes out, because my stuff that I shot earlier in the year from Cairo still has been fully released!

01.08.10

I worked on this during to what seem like a lifetime ago, but I don't love it any less. We had tons of adventures on this, almost losing Byrone to a waterfall, running away from the cops, getting caught by the cops, buying some girls a glass of milk at a bar, and the wizard!

01.07.10

Here is the first image to drop from shooting with one of my favorite skaters right now Theotis Beasley for Skullcandy. The set that we did with Theo was pretty amazing, so there will be alot more to come with him.

Happy Holidays everyone! Its been a remarkable year for me, and I can't express how much I appreciate the support from everyone just comeing to my site as well as all of my clients for keeping the lights on here at the studio. I just recently got one of these cards in the mail from my friends over at L-R-G with one of my photos I shot of Rob G over in Yosemite earlier this year. It made me happy to see this, I almost forgot I even did this shoot earlier this year, time really flew by. Anyway, speaking of

L-R-G I just saw this ad that I shot

feature modern day crooner Mayer Hawthorne in Complex Magazine. It was pretty cool I was chilling in a

7-11 waiting for some friends to buy their beers, and just stumbled upon this ad in the magazine. It makes me wonder about all the photos I have shot out there that people run that I don't know about.
