Paris

I was always afraid to go to France. Most people's opinion of it has been a mix, hearing that the people can be rude, too dirty, pretend to not be American. But I fell in love with Paris, Marseille, and Nice, sadly I was too busy falling in love with it, I forgot to take many pictures. Nonetheless, here are a few shots. I will be going back to Paris for sure!

Arcade Fire

I wish I had taken more photos of this concert, Arcade Fire at the Hollywood Palladium. May be it is overly cliche to say that, that day was a religious experience... but it really felt like it! I hope to see them again soon... rumor has it a new album is finally coming out! Can't wait!

Lupe and Michael

Lupe and Michael were certainly one of my most favorites to photograph. They had so much energy. It saddens me to say that they are going through a very rough time. Shortly after being married less than a year, they were both in a bad car accident. Michael still has a long way to go on his road to recovery. Looking at these pictures, I certainly wish them better times. Patience is key and I hope nothing more that it works in their favor.

Grand Canyon

It is amazing how something unreal exist near by. I have never been to the Grand Canyon prior to this trip, but had always been eager to go. It was an awesome experience, especially going with someone that got to experience it for the first time too. The view was incredible, the hiking was relieving and the history something that sounds pure fiction. I hope one day to return.
