Antwan Dixon photo on Keiko Tsukada's blog!

Keiko (tsukada) is Los Angeles Base writer. Since we worked for Blue Note Japan's assignment, we have worked together couple of times.

She texted me when she got appointment to interview Antwuan Dixon! I met him when he was about to be a pro. I remember he was super nice kid, althought I didn't have chance to photograph him.

Now he's established pro for couple of years later, I wanted see and photograph him.

Keiko wrote about it on her blog, which is very good blog. So go check !

CR on Gower Street, Document

I had another amazing opportunity to photo document artist, CR installing his amazing piece on Gower Street. He's based on Brooklyn and visiting LA for few days. I've been fan of his works for a while and finally documented him in LA when he had a show at known gallery last year, then last April, around the opening of "Art in The Street" show at Moca when he installed in Downtown. Now, it's time to make some another mini photo book zine from these photos!

Ventura Blvd Magazine Cover !!

I photographed "Family story" for Ventura blvd magazine. this is their 2nd issue and I made their cover with my photo!  I knew it's already out but couldn't see it actually till today, when I went to whole foods for little shopping and found this at the cashier section.
   I shot couple of covers already and of course, when I had the first one, i got super stoked and always excite me somehow. Now, it was totally fresh to see at the store, in their cashier section. yay!  Wish I could find it together and shared this feeling with my one and only, Robert.
