Nigel Zeff

The amazingly talented and hardest working graphic designer Nigel Zeff was not only my studio neighbor, but kindred spirit (same person). These conclude the final shots of the portrait series I did while at Otis in Ann Summa's lighting studio.

Michelle An

The lovely and talented Michelle An lent me her in-progress sculptures to use as the subject of a still-life. They proved to be pretty/creepy/cool...

Bie Lee & Lee Noble

Digital test shots from a 4x5 shoot with the lovely and talented folks, Bie Lee and Lee Noble

Adam Villanueva

Simon Sotelo

When she's not creating amazing works on clayboard, sculpting puppets, making A.B.A.W, or moshing bobby pins into my hair at a MMM show - the lovely Simon Sotelo finds time to look pretty for the camera.

Salton Sea Excursion

yesterday i went on a mini-road trip with my very good friends brigette and aaron. we left los angeles for the promise of adventure in the desert. i will be creating a website to document the experience, but here are a few polaroids that captured the moment. two of them went together in a way i didn't plan but it was really too perfect not to juxtapose them.

that was rather symptomatic of the day in general...

Miss B becomes a bride...

One of my childhood friends, the AMAZINGLY talented Brigette, recently married this past October. She was kind enough to ask me to document her beautiful wedding and ever honored, I obliged excitedly. Running around with a Canon 20D, Canon 7E with black and white film, and a Holga I snapped left and right.

More photos are sure to come, but for now - here are a couple of my favorites. Ms. Hepburn could surely take a cue from the lovely new Ms. Jimenez!

extra slides?

So this is what you do with extra slides you have lying around...

It's also what can happen when you're challenged to make a lamp in under 2 hours.

Either way, lots of fun!
