The Luna Co. 01

It’s been a while since I’ve gotten a chance to update. I’ve been really busy trying to settle into school. I also have been trying to organize Fil-Grad at SFSU and have joined The Luna Co., an artist management team based in San Francisco. I am their graphic designer and photographer and so far it has been great working with them. The crew is awesome and the artists are great. Everyone involved is talented and I love the energy that they bring. This is a job that I really imagined myself doing and am excited for everything that is coming up with the company. Good stuff so keep a look out.. I’ll keep you updated

My first time working with them I was asked to do some head shots for Ramiele Malubay. Most people know her from American Idol a few seasons back. She is A very talented singer and I am looking forward to see what she has coming. It was just like photographing one of my friends which made my job a whole lot easier. The photos came out awesome but I didn’t want to post them until she and The Luna Co. decided to release them.

Here’s some previews..

Summer Recap

So lately I have been inputting everying I do into my iCal just to remember it all. Summer is coming to a close and I always like looking back and seeing what I’ve done and this summer I’ve done a lot. These are all the highlights of this year’s summer. Don’t get me wrong, I did a lot more than this. In between all these events, my time was spent hanging out with friends, a lot of laughs and so much relaxation. Overall, It has probably been one of the best summers I have had in a while.

Photoshoot: Theresa

Photographed my very close friend, Theresa, a few weeks ago and have not gotten around to editing the photos until today. I was originally planning to do more with the editing, but decided to keep it simple instead.

We photographed at Dolores Park in San Francisco. The whole shoot was based around the balloons that she is holding. It was something fun for a summer themed shoot.

joaquin aragones aka ilikejoaquin

i photographed my good friend, joaquin, about 2 weeks ago. he wanted to shoot on a sunny day, but we live in the foggy daly city / san francisco border. the morning of the shoot he said “i won’t let the weather own me” and we decided to drive to treasure island. it was nice and away from the clouds but a little windy. that day, i was assisted by another very close friend of mine, theresa, who i will be photographing in these up coming weeks. joaquin showed me different photos and effects he liked and this is what i came up with.

for the whole set, click here.

you can also see joaquin on youtube [youtube.com/user/ilikejoaquin]. he is gaining popularity and has a lot of subscribers. i usually make fun of him for it. haha. or.. you can just call him and tell him how much you like his photos. 1 (650) 276-0630 HAHA no really. you can. lol

Tracey Felix – MJ Tribute

In tribute to the passing of Michael Jackson a couple weeks ago, I decided to do a photoshoot dedicated to the King of Pop. Along with the help of Tracey Felix [Modeled here] We came up with a few looks and photos. It was a two week long process of planning and scheduling but it all worked out in the end. Al the details and planned simply came together so easily. In Tracey’s words, “This photoshoot was hella meant to be!”

Editing the photos, I noticed that my favorite shots were the ones where she isnt really trying. She always says how awkward she felt in front of the lens but it never came across in her photos. It may have been a long photoshoot, trying to get the lighting right but I’m hella happy with the results!

pops.

so i borrowed my friend jp’s 580exII and tested out the new hot shoe mount that i bought last week. just shot thru an umbrella. was playing around in my kitchen while my dad happened to be cooking something. he was asking questions about how it worked and then tells me to take his picture. haha which is kind of funny cuz usually my parents dont like when im shooting around the house taking moded pictures of them. so i took a few shots of my dad. i think the first one is hella funny cuz he hella posed like that himself. and no i did not tell him to tilt his head LOL.
