Venice Beach in Los Angeles is known to be one of the world’s skateboarding mecca’s. The greats have skated here and it is a fantastic park that brings people from all walks of life and all parts of the world together. This weekend I went out there with my friend Irvin and his brother to shoot some photos of the skaters using the Nikon D750 and a Godox Xplor 600 Strobe. 

We took photos by the flat ground area where board slides were as common as iPhones and in the big bowl at the park. Above you’ll find a collection of my favorite photographs from the skatepark in Venice. 

The new studio space in my Los Angeles apartment is setup.

Here are the results from the first shoot:

We had some fun doing a bit of a “who wore it better” test shoot with this white button-down.

Thanks to Sydney and Ryan for their help!

This weekend I had the pleasure of shooting Grad Photos around UCSB for my great friend Rishi. Here are my favorites. 

*All photos shot between 6-7:30pm. 

Spots we shot at: Davidson Library, Henley Gate (not my favorite spot honestly), Storke Tower, and South Hall, and Rockfire Grill!
