Lumiere

Now and then it's nice to give back to others that inspire you.
A few weeks back Blue Scholars released a track entitled "Lumiere" and i put together this collection of imagery to go along with the song.



I am honored that they liked it enough to release it out to their fans.

you can check them out and see why i've been a fan for many years now.

I wanted to give thanks to the homies Max MacVeety (Crown City Rockers) & DJ Zeph (Oakland Faders) for allowing me to do the promo shots for their album Back Beat Symphony.

Here are the album images and some clips i've taken of them doing what they do best.

Month

It's been exactly a month since i have posted something and it's definitely not like me at all, my apologies to all my readers out there.

I've been working super hard at the 9-5 as previously posted and shooting a lot less then i would like to but, nonetheless i have some new ish for everyone. I wanna give thanks to those out there who have put me on their map and those that have offered to in the future. Big ups as usual to The Park for allowing me to cover the filming of the La Pena event back in early April. Thanks to the homie Young Haitti for allowing me to Film for the video "Poplife" and to The Jealous Guys  for giving me props & for our future projects. Also HUGE shouts to The Moholy Ground Crew for putting me up in their very first issue.

John McCoy, Leslie Henderson, Sunny Angulo, Tej Virdi, Leo Docuyanan, Juanita Bruton, Ricardo Cruz, Brian Ferrera, Jeff Bostic, Gabe Wheeler & Monique Low

There's alot of things i would like to write about since last post , cause alot can happen in a month and i will soon but, for now some of those images i'm know best for.

206

I'm sittin' here geekin' out on a saturday night rendering video files , editing photos ect..ect.. and i wanted to post a little something about a scene i have followed pretty religiously for the past few years. It must have been back in 05' i started finding all these insanely talented cats from Seattle on myspace. Now, i love east coast hip hop and the Cali has a grip of talent as well but, wow the northwest has a stronghold on the hip hop something crazy. I think i stumbled over Macklemore & Kublikai first then Symmetry & Ryan Lewis and after that it was one talented soul after another. So, basically i wanted to write this to drop some names, pay my respects and enlighten others who aren't aware of some of what the 206 has to offer.

I won't be posting any of my work in this entry, instead links to all the incredible people that i want my readers to check out. Here is The Fake Empire Video project Featuring Macklemore and many others, produced by Ryan Lewis 09'.

 And these next two short videos are from the making of  "The Town" by Macklemore

Produced by Zia Mohajerjasbi who has recently become my new favorite videographer.

 I really love sharing other peoples work thur my site and i hope you all enjoy me taking a break from posting my work for the sake of these hard working individuals.

They inspire me and i hope they do the same for you.

Here's some links to other Seattle folk that i dig.
