Par•king Lot Photoshoot
Nothing can describe how funny taking these photos were(absolutely nothing).
Took the opportunity to photograph this young man as the sun began to set. The Leica rendered his skin so well.

Boom Tune Lounge Present's “Leave On Shuffle” Mixtape December Mix 2019
Tape 1 Side A: Took more photos than I did film during my time in Cancun. The day I finally get a chance to film was about an hour and a half before i had to head to the air port so by the time I got off the bus I was scrambling around trying to find the bus back to my hotel.
Tape 1 Side B: First time ever going to Controllerise and I absolutely loved it! Such a great place with music I listen to.
Tape 2 Side A: Walmart in Las Vegas is so clean, so quiet and so much better than any Walmart I've ever been too. Also the day we went there was a Red Bull event happening.
Tape 2 Side B: The Strip is an interesting place.

Boom Tune Lounge Presents “Leave On Shuffle” Mixtape October Mix 2019
Tape 1 Side A: The lovely ladies, Tatyana & Kamaria, lighting the birthday candles for the Birthday girl, Miranda. This was such a fun ass party! We made magic happen in that karaoke spot!!!
Tape 1 Side B: Just a usual day with Blue. He has become my go to model whenever I come up with an idea or get some kind of new toy ( ....not that kind of toy you weirdo.....shame on you)
Tape 2 Side A/B: My friend, Audrey, was kind enough to meet me at the library for a mini photo shoot. Ideally what was meant to be a sunny day out taking photos was glaringly obvious that wasn't going to be the case ,but that's never enough reason to stop the creative process (because I'm completely mad).

“I Am” Por•trait Photoshoot: Audrey
Ideally what was meant to be a sunny day out taking photos was glaringly obvious that wasn't going to be the case. The day was filled with overcast and the looming presence of rain(yay) ,but that's never enough reason to stop the creative process (because I'm completely mad).
This is Audrey attempting not to laugh.
For the first portion of the photos we took we shot them in the public library safe from the impending weather, but also because (most importantly) it's free!
Once I got a feel for the space, I tried taking photos that gives a sense that Audrey Is astounded , in awe of the vast amount of knowledge held in the library.
Loved this area of the library that was letting in this lovely glow of light from outside. We set up here and continued the little narrative of reading in the library.
After awhile the imagery of Utada's music video “Hatsukoi” began filling my head. The mixture of light and shadow is beautiful in that video & it’s a balance I strive for in my imagery. With Audrey she has beautiful dark skin that I loved photographing because darker skin like her's has a beautiful reflective quality to it( just look at how the light bounces off her).
I kept the images fairly under exposed keeping the it around -1.7 to -.07. Loved having Audrey pose in this kind of dramatic fashion. This sense of longing and introspection is prevalent in these images just like it is in Hikaru's video( if you haven't watched it before you are denying yourself something beautiful).
After I got enough photos in this spot(honestly I think our laughing (mostly me) got to be too much for the people actually using the library for it's intended use) we moved outside and took more photos.
Album dropping on Sunday, FAM!!!
Thanks to Audrey for being a great sport and for letting me get all close and personal with my camera to take these photographs. Thanks for reading and….
Hope You Enjoy
