My gracious friend posing for me as we walked around Bodega Bay, CA. It was just after sunset so I had to think creatively to take his portrait. I used a good amount of shadows and played around with positioning. He took my direction well and was patient. This is one of the many pictures … Continue reading Adversity and Mentality Through the Waves
Side to Side
Took a shot of my friend on a beach in Bodega Bay, Ca recently. My friend has one eye with double eyelids while the other has one. I took this shot to see which side looked better in photographs. I am proud of this shot, the shadows work well and don't seem to overpower his … Continue reading Side to Side
Natural Portrait
A quick portrait of my friend the last time we went to San Francisco earlier this year. One of the few times I took a portrait and didn’t want to make is black and white. I know I need a lot of work when dealing with portraits but I’m proud of this one. It’s simple, … Continue reading Natural Portrait
Pushing Through/Be True
As I explored Las Vegas I found myself off of the strip staring up at the Raiders stadium. My friend improvised his pose as I took this shot. I enjoyed the moment so this shot is special to me. I tried editing it many times but none of them felt right. Phew! Working hard on … Continue reading Pushing Through/Be True
Doing All I Can
A shot of my cousin on our trip to Lodi a few weeks ago. I normally hate how he keeps his hair (he is lazy) but today it seems like his hair adds a cool effect to the shot. Need to brighten his eyes a bit but overall I'm getting better at portraits. Phew, been … Continue reading Doing All I Can

A shot that I took in Lodi recently. This was a spur of the moment shot of my cousin as we explored the nature park around Lodi Lake. This shot is plain to me but I do like the look in my subjects' eyes. I will go back to this shot and plan something better. … Continue reading Always Seeking to Improve
Working While Working
Always willing to take a shot even when I’m suppose to be “working”. Photography is a true love of mine and I’m always ready to take my shot. I over-edited this shot to try to see the end result. I obviously like it but I can see areas that I can improve like the floor … Continue reading Working While Working

I've been introducing more and more photography principles to him as he has an interest in the field. It's an interesting process as we can bond over our shared passion for this craft. I … Continue reading Photographic Journey
Smile and Enjoy The Little Moments
After a nice day and night in San Francisco. Me and my friends headed to Davis, CA to shoot some hoops and get some boba. This was my friends’ reaction to trying a new drink. We had fun talking about life and simply laughing as we learned about each other. My coworker above slowly became … Continue reading Smile and Enjoy The Little Moments
On my Own Path: No More Excuses
The worst thing about me is that I never truly given my all to something. I was afraid to fail or that was never good enough. So I looked for excuses to use for why I didn’t pursue something wholeheartedly. Read an article about the UFC Jon Jones who is considered by many to be … Continue reading On my Own Path: No More Excuses
