For those photographers wonderin’… the first night was shot with only available light and the 2nd night was shot with both available light and off camera lighting.

1st night…

Last November, we had the honor to roam the streets of Los Angeles and shoot Shames Worthy for his upcoming new album, titled “The Album.”  Well that new highly anticipated album drops today on 1.11.11, so we thought we would drop some of those images today along with the release!  We’re really proud to have a very itsy-bitsy part of the album, especially knowing how much hard work and time Shames put into it (much respect)!  Trust us folks, this album is INSANE!  Some of our fav’s are #3 the anthem, #6 rude awakening, and #10 audible imagery.  Enjoy the fresh sounds of Shames Worthy!!!   …and enjoy the pics!

This July, it s going to be 10 years since I’ve known Moses (aka DJ Release).  At 18, I got my first full time job working at a warehouse, this is where I met and worked with Moses.  Flash forward 10 years… Moses is about to blow up on the DJ scene and we’re getting our photo biz off the ground!  Moses has some big things that are about to drop, but before that happens he wanted to update his promo pics with an Anapaul spin on them.  Check out his work on his Myspace page and become a fan on his Facebook fan page!  Enjoy the pics!  …and DJ Release’s music!

Last Friday, we wanted to give ourselves a night off from taking photos.  We went down to Juanita’s Restaurant in Highland Park for some live music, live art (yes…live!), drinks, great food, and hangin’ with friends.  Everything was going good until I stepped outside for some air.  The photographer in me noticed the scenery surrounding me and with the music playing within the restaurant…I couldn’t help but put the two together for some great photo opportunities.  So I grabbed my trusty camera equip and pulled a couple of bands outside for a few pics.  It kind of helped that the bands I grabbed were actual friends of mine so they were more willing to put up with my requests.  By the way, the two bands were Profugos (the nicer dressed gentlemen) and Trust A Fox (which you may remember from a previous post).  Oh yeah!  Just thought I would share a crazy moment related to this post.  As I was editing some of the photos in this post, we were watching the movie Yes Man with Jim Carrey.  I couldn’t beleive my eyes…there were some scenes in the movie that were shot at Juanita’s Restaurant; the same place where we were hangin’ out and shooting pics outside!!!  I did a double-take and a few pause-and-rewinds.  Crrraaaazzzzzzzy!

Last week we packed up our gear and headed east to sunny and, by the way, VERY windy Palm Springs.  A band called Trust A Fox, who are from Palm Springs, asked us to do their band promo shots.  For the shoot, we needed a cool background and these guys nailed it by taking us to a run down abandoned property.  If I could do a black flip I would have after seeing the location (even if I could have, with it being so windy it would have not been a good idea).  The location just gave us loads to work with and everything about it just had so much character.  We had a fun time exploring the location and hanging out with the Fox fellas, and oh yeah… taking their pictures (we LOVE our jobs)!  Image plays an important part of a band’s success…and we feel honored to be asked to complement someone’s music with our photography.  Enjoy the pics and afterwards enjoy Trust A Fox’s music by visiting their myspace page…
