Still settling...

We've been in LA for around 6 weeks and its been an interesting ride so far. I've been concentrating mostly on assisting to make sure I get some steady income and to establish myself a bit here within the assisting world. Things have been great in that realm. Been working again with Ben Watts, he's NY based but is out here a ton.Kevin Zacher, an LA based photographer whom I had worked with in NYC a few times over the last few years and Norman Jean Roy, whom I had never worked with before moving here. All are great photographers and I'm stoked to be working with all of them. I have a few others that I've been in contact with but I don't want to mention any names so not to jinx it.

My own photography has been slowed up a bit due to the move but I hope that my picture taking will pick up a bit in the next month or so. The loft we are renting has some amazing light so I'm going to start shooting portraits up here a bunch and then I'm thinking of hitting the road once a month to find people to photograph. I'm really excited to explore this part of the country.


Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks.

The light in the loft is amazing, I'm really excited to get some V-flats up here so I can shape the light more.
