Homage to the greats











Every year I look back at the people who have inspired my work. I am not doing anything new. I consider myself a carrier of the tradition of street photography and nothing more. When you see my work best beleive that my heroes influence is there. Bruce Davidson, Dennis Stock, Glen Friedman, Roberta Bayley and Richard Avedon. True legendary masters!!!! Enjoy!!!




Employment training????

I drove past the employment training center and saw it was empty. Social services is a joke!!!

Estevan Oriol L.A. Women Book signing






I was at Estevan Oriol's book signing for LA Women. The show was amazing and as a photographer it's inspiring to keep shooting and get better with every job I get and keep doing my side projects as well. It was an honor to meet Estevan and his wife Angel. They both signed my book and Estevan also signed my AE-1.
