How about a sneak peek of the first half of a whole wedding? Same day edit done yesterday during Becky and Errol's amazing "619" (San Diego area code) wedding.
glamour girl in bedstuy
Last month in New York, I had a photoshoot with Ruby Veridiano, a media personality from Oakland/NYC. She is one of the most inspirational women I have ever met, you can see it through her personality and all the hard work that she does. Did I also mention that she is one of the top 3 finalists for the head blogger position for Alicia Keys website, iamasuperwoman.com? She'll find out if she wins the position in a few days, so you can lend her support by clicking on this link and comment on one of her blog posts. Her idea for the shoot was a "glamour girl in Bedstuy," so I headed over to Brooklyn and with the help of makeup artist Eileen Lei, we proceeded to go around the neighborhood and make Ruby's vision a reality. Check out some of my favorite photos.

artist profile / jordan josafat
A few weeks ago, I created an artist profile on one of my best friends, painter Jordan Josafat. This is one of my first forays into video with my 5D Mark II and it was a test to see if I was capable of creating documentaries for what is to be a a lifelong personal project of mine. I thought it would be fun to showcase Jordan's art as well as practice with video and audio, something that is very foreign to me. But what we created was exactly as I envisioned, so now I can discuss my personal project. In the future, I am going to be creating documentaries of my most inspirational friends, normal people who inspire others around them to break from the status quo. These are individuals who take life by the horns and live their lives according to their own doctrines. These are the people we need to surround ourselves with to grow with positive outlooks, I believe that everyone can be inspired by people around them and in turn, become inspirations themselves. I have friends all around the country who I will be profiling, not in the same vain of how I did with Jordan's artist profile, but something deeply personal that when they themselves watch their own profile video, they will realize that just by speaking about their lives, they can be an influence to everyone.
So please enjoy this documentary on my friend, Jordan Josafat.
