Howie Mandel
I couple months ago I got a chance to meet Howie Mandel, host of the popular show Deal or No Deal. He is featured on the cover of this month's issue of Westlake Magazine to promote his new book titled Here's the Deal: Don't Touch Me. In the book, Howie shares his personal struggles living with OCD and ADHD. Here's some behind-the-scenes video of Howie. I shot the interview with a Canon 5D M2, stills with a pocket digi cam, and edited everything later in iMovie. Enjoy!

Scott Hangin in Santa Monica
Scott was in search of some new photos that were natural and candid. We collaborated on the shoot and chose to do the session in Santa Monica around 3rd Street Promenade, the Pier, and the beach.
I love the shot shot, what detail!
Scott loves his car, so we took a couple... au-casual.
Peering at the pier.
There was so many cool spots!
Scott tried his balance on this branch. I love the lens flare.
Finally, we ended with some pictures under the pier.
Great job modeling Scott!

Tonee Dang
Model/actor Tonee Dang has been working for a few years now landing roles in some top campaigns and films. Just like myself, he came out to LA from Chicago to follow a dream. We recently (and I mean yesterday) collaborated on a shoot inspired by some amazing architecture and retro vibes. Here's our session...
The photo details: For this shoot I used my standard 24-70 2.8L and 50mm 1.4 on a Canon 5d. It gives good clarity and shallow depth of field. The edits were done a couple of different ways, but mostly playing around with actions that came in a Totally Rad set, and the texture was done separately by hand by changing the layer overlay mode.

Do all dogs go to heaven? R.I.P. Foxy Johnson
Well, it's been a couple of days since my dog was put to sleep Monday. My family has had her since 1995. She was a Basenji, and it was always fun explaining to people "what kind of dog" that is because no one really ever knew. Originally from Africa, Basenji's where they were used to hunt lions. They can't bark, and they also do not like the water. (drinking water is ok.) Every time I would give her a bath, she would hate it... just like a cat. Over the years she got used to it, because and I turned the water on the hot. She loved to sit in the sun and soak up the warmth. R.I.P. Foxy.

First Official Blog 030308
Today is my first "official" blog. I decided to start blogging, after attending a workshop this afternoon at Calumet w/ Sarah Petty Photographer. She discussed her approach to "The Joy of Marketing." http://www.thejoyofmarketing.com/
There were a couple of things that really stood out from her presentation. Some of which included the importance of Identity, Branding, Creative Advantages (how to distinguish yourself from other photographers in your market). Also, one great tool is to start a blog, to help clients relate and really get to know you as a photographer.
Besides the workshop, my weekend was pretty interesting. On Saturday, I shot event
photographs for Rich Woo's First Annual House Crawl, featuring Bucktown and Lincoln Park. (http://www.richwoo.com/) The tour stopped at about 10 differ
ent properties on the trendy north side of Chicago. We saw some pretty awesome properties... mostly in the $350k- $560k range. For the event, I sponsored Rich Woo with 2 gift certificates for photography that were given away in a raffel!
And... finally a picture of Lyly in front of her apartment. I've been eyeing the wood door of her building ever since she moved into that place, 9 something months ago. The most interesting feature is found at the bottom of the door: "Deliver All Goods in Rear."
