Ducati Panigale 1199s Photoshoot

2013-09-28T04:31:00.004-07:00

Im an artist, and being an artist you have to consider more than the actual image your attempting to create. With this particular shoot I wanted to not just focus on the beautiful machine but the lifestyle of a Ducati owner. Unlike the japanese brand sport bikes the Ducati has a signature, a certain level of social status that above its counterparts. The sheer elegance of the machine speaks words for whom ever dares to mount it.

When you own a Ducati you should know what it says about your person.

Enjoy...

A special ThankYou goes out to my model, Marc "Bizzy" who is a firm believer in my visions and is always willing to push the envelope to help me create these spectacular images.

Toya's 10 Steps to a flawless face

2013-09-16T15:45:00.001-07:00

I had the opportunity to cover Toya's beauty class. As she refreshed and enlightened a prestige group of women on how to beat their faces to perfection I shadowed the course, capturing moments in the class as the women absorbed tips and tricks of the trade. Enjoy..

Celebrity Nail Stylist D. Malone also attended the even and worked her magic while class was in session.

I had a blast racing where the greats have traded paint and set records. I took a day out of my busy schedule to do a track day with A.C.E. and it was well worth it. I made some mistakes at first but quickly corrected them and had a awesome day. Check out the pictures, video to come soon..

My New Life.. Above #BIKELIFE

2013-06-11T20:34:00.002-07:00

I think i'm in love again. I took a quick break from the bike scene to collect myself and find the love in it again. It can seem like work after getting harassed by police for absolutely nothing, then police chases when you actually do something. I think it just took some time for me to out grow day to day street riding so I could commit to something special. And I think I found that in the track. From the chicanes to hitting my apex's to finishing off the edges of my tires.. This is a rush you cant ignore. too bad my gopro was dead and I couldn't find a power cord to save my life. But Roy from www.THESBIMAGE.com caught some sick shots of me on the track with that 600mm Nikon monster lens. Enjoy cause I did...

And to close it out.. The look on my face after finishing off my tires.. LOL

Shot by my road dog, Skittlez.

Special Shout out to #24 JOI HARRIS aka SJ24

for hanging out with us and ripping that lightning course with us.

Lenora "Skittlez" Hankerson - Track Day Video

2013-05-30T06:42:00.001-07:00

We took some video while we were at the track and it was a few good laps until a rider went down and they stopped the run. you'll see the yellow and red flags come out. But its a cool video, for all the riders that have never been to the track I left the entry footage to the actual track from pit row so you can get a feel of what its like to be there and hopefully inspire a few people. Enjoy...

We are also looking for sponsors for Lenora. If your are interested or would like to inquire more.

Thankyou for visiting.. Stay tuned for more...

As I stated in previous posts, this was a mile stone for me in editing because I abruptly jumped ship from apples final cut pro straight to the adobe CS6 suite for this project. This was my first project fully edited in the adobe suite and I am a fan. Check out the work, like it, comment, subscribe..

TROUBLEZ - TALK ABOUT ME

2013-03-09T03:41:00.004-08:00

My debut adobe project for 2013. This is my first project completely edited using the adobe suite. For a long time I have been a dedicated final cut pro editor, but adobe's new system was too hard to over look. We had some fun shooting this project. We got to play with a few toys.. As you can see we are wrapping up the editing stage so stay tuned, the project will be dropping soon.

TALI SHOW

2012-04-07T05:58:00.004-07:00

I had the opportunity of being a guest at one of Tali's shows and I must say,

it's been a while since I've enjoyed a show this good. The environment at the Franklin Park Bar/lounge was like the cherry on top. Coming from an predominantly hip hop & R&B neighborhood, the crowd vibed to her tunes as if she was a regular. I cant help but be anxious to attend the next show. Here are some photo's from the night. Enjoy....
