Shinri and Megumi

My japanese friends, who i've met in downtown LA in february. How this story ended hard to write in few sentences. I woke up somewhere in the middle of Arizona desert after six! months with one tought - whart a hell i'm doing here? :) But anyway it was most crazy part of my entire life and i'm looking forward to meet this guys again somewhere in Peru, where they going now actually :) Good luck True and Giving (translation of they names)

My favorite portrait

I saw this guy only once, but what a character. I wish i can do full time session with him. His face in amazing. Its like all his life at front of you :) But i just got 2 shots somewhere in the middle of Cleveland downtown at night time. Well, by now its my best portraits i have. I even won few competitions with those. Someday we'll met again :)

LA photosessions

LA is big, im still not get used to it. Specially after i lived on Taho lake for few years. Big difference:) But sometimes i visit this megacity to meet my friends and do some photosessions with local models. Nothing serious yet, but someday may be i'll move close to Santa Barbara. Lot of wealthy people live here and i want to make my photo business growing, its the best bet.

Pet photography

I love pets and i love to shoot them ;) This crazy dog have cool name too - "Tequila". She think she are human, its so funny to watch her conversations with other dogs. :) Looks exactly like human - pet relationships :) We did this photoshoot also at Carmel. I think i need to do more in this field. Will try walk sometimes at Golden Gate shore and find some clients.

Laguna Beach model photoshoots

In between photoshoot in Laguna Beach, CA on our way to San-Diego. We met this guy at the ocean. Found good location right away and started to shoot :) Don't wait until tomorrow if you can do it today :) Dolce Gabbana style :)

Party photoshoot at West Manor

This saturday i was shooting sneak preview at West Manor on Harrison st. Few hours of fun and beauty. Lot of girls, dancy music and low light. Not easy to make pictures, but if your have flash and 50mm 1.8 its possible ;) Thats was cool party!

Pacifica nights

I've met Kirill Krylov yesterday in Pacifica. Guru in landscape photography. Tasty tea, lamb and amazing sunset. Good evening, good talks. I need to scan 6x6 slides and only he have Imacon scanner for it. Im lucky :)

Venice beach photoshoot

Thats was cool party at Venice Beach. Beautiful model, ocean and sunshine. I like this place. Perfect for any presentations and events. Lot of going on there.

We did wonderful photoshoot with this couple at Carmel-by-the-Sea. Light was perfect, waves too and in result we got beautiful set of engagement pictures for them. Dog Tequila is so funny! :) Carmel is very nice place, lot of gardens, houses and different colors. I definitely will use this location for love stories. Its perfect! So guys make your schedule, its about 1,30 minutes drive from SF. See you there! :)

Well im finally moved back to Bay area and starting to look for any photo gigs. Last six month in Sedona, AZ was pretty crazy, but i will remember this time forever. Parties everyday, full moon drumming circles, talented scientists, musicians, healers from all over the world. Amazing time. I left my heart there. Someday i'll be back. Some day.
