Event date: November 30, 2016

TFTI_LA is an instagram page where they organize random meet ups for the sake of making creating something different than what people normally photograph.

It's always fun and a great way to meet new people such as models, photographers and various performance artists.

This particular night was pretty fun as it was preceeded by another fun performance by a number of YouTube celebrities for the Drop the Mic Lip Sync battle.

In any case, here's something different from my cosplay stuff and I hope you all enjoy it.

Dance Video: Rian Synnth. Chatsworth, California.

Shoot Date: March 31, 2016.

On the night of March 30, I get a message from Rian asking if I was available the next morning. I actually had nothing planned, so she suggested we go out and do a random dance shoot. I'm always game for random things, so I agree. Then I'm told she wanted to do a video shoot. It's been a while since I've done something like this, but I am always down for the cause.

She drives over to my place we meet up and do some shots here, then we move on to Chatsworth where we hike a bit up the Santa Susana Pass until we find a nice spot.

From then Rian pulls out some improv interpretive dancing, which I record. Everything movement was spontaneous as we worked off each other's ideas and movements. End of the day we played with my pets for a bit before she went off to work.

Knowing who I am, if I just let this video sit, I would never work on it. So I'm here to present to you, "Dancing Weather."

Shoot Date: January 15, 2016

The long lasting original Star Girls burlesque ended in December with one hell of a bang. But that wasn't the end. Courtney Cruz's newest incarnation of the show brings a new fresh feel to the from the opening act of the Sithfits to the special David Bowie Tribute by Prince Poppycock. Still housed at Dragonfly in Hollywood, fans of titties and Star Wars from all over Southern California filled the standing room only club from wall to wall. Below are a few takes I was able to grab while I enjoyed the show!

NSFW Gallery: STAR GIRLS BURLESQUE Aug 28 / Courtney Cruz Bday Bash. Dragonfly. Hollywood, California

9/4/2015

 
Shoot date: August 28, 2015
Short and sweet, this particular weekend was full of cosplay. It started off with hitting up The Dragonfly for Courtney Cruz's birthday /slash/ the monthly Star Girls Burlesque show. After shooting two Devil's Playground performances (galleries here and here), I thought I'd do something different, and bust out the ol' portrait-taking rig and create images of some of the performers when they weren't on stage killing it.
I'll split it up in a couple of sections, portraits first then some snaps I stole of them inside and on stage.

Enjoy.

NSFW Gallery: Olivia Bellafontaine and Courtney Cruz present "Pussy Bang Bang," An Evening of Grindhouse and Burlesque. Dragonfly. Hollywood, California

8/19/2015

 
Shoot date: August 14, 2015
Still getting a hang a concise format, so bear with me while I hammer things down.
Let me tell you a story about Courtney Cruz. She's one of the coolest chicks I've met, and I was super honored she let me shoot her and the equally babely and awesome Olivia Bellafontaine's brainchild "Pussy Bang Bang." 
What's that you ask? 
Well, remember the Star Girls post that was up a little ago? It's like that, but instead of hot women in Star Wars outfits, they're hot women as iconic grindhouse themed characters, with one exception. Kitten Natividad, from basically every Russ Meyer film, portrayed her bad ass self!

So... I guess, here goes! Enjoy the shots.

NSFW Gallery: The Devil's Playground - Star Girls Burlesque @ Dragonfly. Hollywood, California

8/9/2015

 
July was a hell of a month in general. One of the best parts of it was getting back in with Myspace projects after a hiatus. 
I pitched the idea of covering the Star Girls Burlesque show to my editor early July, and she loved it. 
I ended up shooting the show and doing a quick interviewing its coordinator Courtney Cruz for it.  
Needless to say, I took a ton of photos, many of which were not submitted or used for the article (click for link) that was posted. 
I didn't feel like short changing the talent of the dancers or anyone who happens to follow me and my work, so here is my uncut selection from their July 31 show.
