"Gemini" with Alexa Nunez


This is my awesome friend Alexa. She has always been supportive of my wierddd and crazy "visions" and/or ideas, and I thank her for being so easy to work with.

Even before the year 2014 even begun, I wanted to plan a project for the rest of the year, so I started sketching ideas of possibly future shoots going down this year and decided to sketch a concept I had in mind at the moment and then compare it with the final image. I guess it worked. 

Original idea: 


This idea came to life when I was helping out my grandma cleaning some ol'room and found these wierd-looking twin masks, and she said it was better if I kept them. I didn't think I'd use them for a photo, but I sure am glad I didn't get rid of them! 
As shown above, that was my original concept, it changed completely because I believed I was gonna come up with something in the middle of the shoot. And I did. 

More from the shoot ! Enjoy !

" Eternal " - New Floral-Themed Series: " This Garden I Call Home "

Image
  " Eternal " I have been a bit absent on my photo work but, I have just picked up my camera after  a couple months to use for realz.  April was a very special month for me and I learned a lot about life and about myself. As I am slowly getting down on more techniques for painting and understanding the making behind every piece, it has made me appreciate what I do on every aspect including my photography. We never stop learning about ourselves and I believe that in the art world we have multiple personalities that we maybe have yet to discover. I am Starting this new Floral series ( when do I not include nature haha ! ) which I named " This Garden I Call Home " because to me, on a personal level, nature and/or flowers mean life, death and inner growth. I use nature in most of my works representing that reminder that I am still in a constant state of growth personally and mentally and I have learned a lot of both this past month and it has completely c...

" Los Egos "

Image
I played Little Nightmares last week and MAN did I LOO00OOoooOooo00oooove it!! I recommend it over 9000 ! It's an amazing game and I would 10/10 play it over and over again. So,  Little Nightmares is about a girl named Six, we don't know why she got to where she's at. In the game, she has to find herself a way to escape " The Maw " where horrible things happen, is it an orphanage ? A torture chamber ? Who knows. But you sure need to play a game of Hide and Seek with all the monsters annd that is the fun part ! The game has no dialogue, they don't really explain much, and that's what makes it interesting because there are a TON of theories that are way too interesting to not watch. I'll let you all go play the game before I start telling spoilers ! One of the theories I was really interested in made from a dude on youtube with the username " The Inhuman One " started to do research on how the Japanese mythology or folklore heavily infl...

The Great Jeremy Farson

Image
Jeremy Farson ladies and gentlemen. I've been working on my final project for my editorial photography class. I chose to shoot 5 to 7 portraits of painters // illustrators, so I obviously had to think of Jeremy.  I got to shoot in his art room and it was one of the best photoshoots i've ever had ! Jeremy is really cool to work with and I had no trouble telling him what to do and all. He grabbed this sculpture of a bunny he made a while back and it really shows how proud he is of it. It was the first thing he grabbed and posed with ! He started painting over his  most recent piece just for the lulz of it. After we finished shooting this set he said: " Hold on lemme finish this. "  And did his shenanigans with it. The he painted over the other one. Reference picture for painting. I asked Jeremy If I could splatter paint on him or something and he agreed and immediately grabbed his red a...
