FRESNO CITY HARDCORE PUNKS

Punk Rock / Fresno, Ca / 2007?

I took this picture years ago and forgot that it was in a stash of negatives that never got developed or scanned. I did it and came some pretty surprising stuff I forgot I took. Though that these images are pretty expired I wanted to take the time and look at what I noticed those years. I still take the same pictures till this day. It's crazy, but I miss those days photographing people in my old city. So, whoever you are.. hope you guys are doing okay.

THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE IN THAT ROOM

Those Strangers I Miss Though / Fresno, Ca / 2007?

As we go into the subject of school I remembered years ago people would come to my room before or after class. Some to just hang out and some to just stay and sleep. Sometimes new people would stop by and greet me. It was wonderful, but this picture I can't decipher who it is. and it makes you wonder the amount of people that had sort of gone through my life like magic. Whoever you are.. thank you for taking some time to hang out with me.

OMG... I'M LATE FOR SCHOOL

The Wheels on the Bus Keep on Turning / Portland, Ct / 2013

Today marks the official day of school for all kids in Connecticut. We had a pretty smooth summer (weather) and most of the electric bills were low. I loved it, but as it winds down so does the weather. It's starting to cool down and for that I've gotten extremely sick because of it. I had to actually call in sick today so I can at least feel a bit better than I did last week. God... last week was a fucking disaster. Oh well.. enjoy the remainder of the week.

IT'S TIME TO GO HOME AND SLEEP

The Drive Was Long / Middletown, Ct / Fall 2013

These drives get longer and longer. The funny thing is that they're commutes heading to or from work. Maybe I'm just getting slower. That's something to think about I guess.

THE VIEW WAS MUCH BETTER HERE

Finding a Place to Sit / New York, Ny / Fall 2013

A second installment to that day. Again, having a little bit of time to work with can help you get creative. These were merely lucky shots I admit, but man when you're in New York you can find the smallest things become the most interesting. I miss it there already.

CHEER UP. I GOT CANDY

Wedding Errands / New York, Ny / Fall 2013

My wife and I had to go to New York to get some paper work done in the Philippine Embassy. That day was intense as we needed every minute count to complete everything we needed. And we did. We did have our downtime to explore a bit, but it was cut short. Luckily, I was able to take a couple of images before we went back home. I was reluctant to post these since I don't photograph vertical picture in the street, but combining these seemed to make sense. I have a couple of these images that worked that day, but overall these were my favorite of the bunch.

THE 7:30 SHIFTS

When No One is at Work / East Hartford, Ct / Winter 2013

Just the other day I started to see the leaves turnover a bright red. I didn't know how I felt considering how short the summer was, but it definitely gave me a thought about what I want to try and accomplish in the next few months. Life has been giving me interesting turns and one of those turns is this job I currently work for. At the beginning of my shifts I used to watch the sun illuminate through the windows of a certain section of the office. At this time the weather spews a beautiful gradient of yellow almost glowing whatever it touches. I love this time of the year and I hope that in the next few months I can find that light again.

ADULT SWIM

Boring Summer / Middletown, Ct / 2013

This time last year marked the ending of summer. Since fall is hitting the corner I've been anticipating what I will be dealing with for the next few months. My first initial thought is capturing the fall in black and white. I've been sick of looking at color and been wanting to look towards the different shades of grey like I used to. These photos were stuck in my hard drive and today felt like an appropriate time to post them up. This summer was pretty good. I just hope the fall can do the same.

NOTHING PERSONAL - PREVIEW FOOTAGE

Last Friday was a great time. The exhibitors and audience all seemed to be receptive that night. I was glad that most of the individuals were just down to hang out and check out hard work. For the remainder of the week I'll try to post more stuff and start the blogging thing again. For now thank you for all the support. You guys were so much fun!
