A few months ago, I was asked to shoot Frank Bruynbroek’s portrait for his upcoming book called Compawssion it is a project he has been working on for the last 15 years, as well I was asked to shoot and edit a short teaser for the book.
Frank’s passion for photography and his love and compassion for dogs have culminated in a beautiful book of photographs of rescued dogs, and I was happy to take part in it.

The first time I shot a portrait of Rafael Moreira was quite a few years ago, It was a full-page, black and white ad for Musicians Institute (MI) in Hollywood, California, that appeared in Guitar player magazine.
Since then We had many shooting sessions, Here’s the original ad and a few more images from other sessions.
Here’s an excerpt from his Gibson article:
“Brazilian guitar sensation Rafael Moreira is the true representation of a diverse musician. Infinitely creative, this guitarist, vocalist, and producer pride himself with an incredible pedigree of accomplishments working not only independently, but with many of the world’s most influential musical élite.
Currently, Moreira thrives in his latest musical undertaking as lead guitarist for NBC’s hit-maker “The Voice”. Relishing the intense working environment alongside other equally gifted musicians; his diverse playing style is well suited for the overwhelming task of facilitating contestants through songs in varied genres. With little room for improvisation, Moreira’s creativity shines conversely in music where the original version has little to no guitar tracks. Here, he is unrestricted in embellishing the music, allowing it to breathe and flow in a new direction.” Read more […]
I was walking in downtown Los Angeles on my way to have dinner this Saturday after a job.
I love urban photography and I love this city’s skyline, the weather set up the stage pretty nicely, And I still had my camera with me. I made it my Homage to Fritz Lang.
On my way back from Pasadena, after wrapping up my show today, I stopped for a hot dog in downtown LA.
I got a ticket. :(
Happy new 2012 everyone!

My most valuable learning experience was working as a photographer’s assistant back in the late 80’s, while starting my professional photography career.
One of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned was using a single light source to set up an atmosphere.
In nature we have only a single main light source (sun), the human brain is completely happy and can easily make sense of a scene that has a single light direction. practicing this method in the studio helped me advance and master this technique in the studio as well as out on location.
