Oakland Zoom

Alot been goin as the days and months pass by and i feel as if i haven't been taking the time to give the proper credit to the artists i have been blessed to work with and  surrounded by. Those who grant me opportunity and help me grow as an artist and as a person i thank you. Jenni Tay , Amanda Lopez and the crits from The Park , Derek Taylor , Josh Lippi and Ben Schwier others like Wonway Posibul , 40 LOVE  , The Whooligan , Melissa Fuller , ThinkBeat Radio , E Da Boss , Nino Moschella , Keelay & Zaire , Ragen Fykes , Grown Kids Radio , K Flay , Novena Carmel , Steve Wyreman , Nate Mercereau , Crown City Rockers , Lee Bob Watson , Jessie Boykins III , Melina Jones and so many more

I wanna let you know that i am greatful to know you and have become that much better of a person because of it. I'm quite the anti-social and my words or expressions don't always come out the way i mean them to so please don't hold that against me. I've got love for those good people and i want all to know.

Here are some snaps i took last weekend of Zumbi  from the legendary Zoin I Crew . Make sure to check the website for Amp Live's latest remixes along with show dates and the new boxset The Alpha .

The Lone Photographer

I might not have a huge following as a photographer but, my heart is in it more than you'll ever know. I put 110% into what i do and sleep so well at night knowing that i express my creativity on a daily basis. I know that if i could no longer document the world around me through images the way i see, i would have a hard time facing all of the other situations that life throw's my way.

Such a amazing feeling, being in love with something so perfect.

Holiday weekend is here and i hope everyone stays safe and has fun. I also want to thank all of you on facebook for promoting my Vol. 2... from Tim House to DJ Shredone thank you guys sooo much!


and i'm out

Madison Square Park Oakland, Ca

Last saturday i was lucky enough to document the "maddy park sessions" skate,hip hop,graf event. Big ups to Anthony Cole of teamrazorfang.com who invited me to capture the day. It was a super hot day and my 24-70 almost melted in my hands after 7 hours of shooting but, i think i grabbed some bangers and i had a great time.

Shouts to the Chosen few, Bossasaurus, Pep Love & DJ Lex.
