Hit up Carnival on Wednesday (THANKS CUZ!!), I all I have to say is DAMNNNNNNNNNN. ITS LEGIT. Looks like I’ll be there every month. There are some talented dancers out there. Everyone lookin’ fresh to death. I felt a little uncool. I want to be a hipster. Maybe I should grow a pink mohawk so I can fit in next time.

Anyhoo, HERE ARE SOME PICTURAS!

LA just drives me crazy. We can flow through the city, right.

This is usually not the opera I go to on weekend nights.

and you’ll never look back.

I am madly and utterly in love with Stars.

God that was strange to see you again,
Introduced by a friend of a friend.
Smiled and said, “Yes, I think we’ve met before”
In that instant, it started to pour.
Captured a taxi despite all the rain,
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain.
And all that time you thought I was sad,
I was trying to remember your name.

This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin,
Tried to reach deep, but you couldn’t get in.
Now you’re outside me,
You see all the beauty.
Repent all your sin.

It’s nothing but a time and face that you lose.
I chose to feel it, and you couldn’t choose.
I’ll write you a postcard.
I’ll send you the news,
From a house down the road from real love.

Live through this, and you won’t look back.
Live through this, and you won’t look back.

There’s one thing I want to say, so I’ll be brave.
You were what I wanted,
I gave what I gave.
I’m not sorry I met you.
I’m not sorry it’s over.
I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save.

I’m not sorry there’s nothing to save.

 

If you follow the storyline, you can continue on to the next song. I feel like it’s part 2 to this first song.

In their own words: Here’s a song about fucking someone to death.

Try as he might, he’s unable to speak.
He grabs her by the hair, he strokes her on the cheek.
The bed is unmade, like everything is.
Dark little heaven at the top of the stairs.
Take me like that, ruin it all.
Then build it again by the light in the hall.
He drops to his knees and says
Please love, please. I’ll kill who you hate.
Take off your dress, you won’t freeze.

One more night, that was a good one.
One more night, I dreamed it was a good one.
One more night, that was a good one.
One more night, the end should be a good one.

He starts with her back, ’cause that’s what he sees.
When she’s breaking his heart, she still fucks like a tease.
Release to the sky, look him straight in the eye,
And tell him right now, that you wish he would die.
You’ll never touch him again, so get what you can.
Leaving him empty, just because he’s a man.
So good when it ends, they’ll never be friends.
One more night, that’s all they can spend.

Congrats to the new class that just graduated!

Friday night, we went to the showcase. I haven’t been back for 2 years. I think I was most impressed by the digital graphics stuff. Pretty sick stuff all around.

Afterwards, we tried to go to Castle Green to take some pictures. FAILone. Got caught by the security guard and he wouldn’t let us upstairs. So instead, had a portrat sess.

_MG_4139

After loitering for a little bit longer, Emz wanted to go see if we could break into Dodgers Stadium to get a shot of LA.

FAILtwo. It was locked up and we contemplated climbing the fence…except we saw barbed wires.

We then wanted to see if we could go up to the La Canada Country Club to that infamous parking lot “make out point” to see if we could get a shot there. 

FAILthree. I forgot how to get there.

Then we decided to hit up Cue Ball.

_MG_4168

This is how she tries to break. Do you see the direction the cue ball is headed? FAILfour.

FAILfive came when we got hungry and decided to try to hit up Pepe’s for some late night snacks. When we arrived, it was not open.

FAILsix came when we tried to hit up Jack in the Box after FAILthree only to arrive and find that it was closed as well.

FAILseven would be more of a personal one. I knocked out right after I pigged out on McDonalds nuggets.

What a fun-filled FAILday.

Wow. Summer weddings are intense. First off, I got like 5 hours of sleep the night before. -___-; Well rested for a 12+ hour wedding. Right. It’s okay. Emz and I are warriors like that. So we had the pleasure to shoot with Sir Arthur St John. He’s homies w/ ESS EN DOUBLE OH PEE DOGGY DOGG, na mean. LEGIT.

So we met up outside the church around 11:30ish and got all gear and dudeeeeeeeeee the church was sickk!!

_MG_3150

Gorgeous venue to be married in…the bride & groom arrived in their limo cuz they’re ballinnnnnnnnnnnnnn’. The ceremony started around 1pm so we shot away.

After the ceremony, we ran inside real quick with Bridgeth and Wilson to take some shots of them in the gorgeous church.

From the choir balcony.

After we stuck around a bit and took pictures of the guests outside the church, we had to head over from central LA over to Long Beach. Except, we got lost and had to detour 1000x times. Dude, yesterday, I got lost like so many times because our conversation side tracked my mind while I was driving. Bad idea to talk about things that excite me while I’m driving.

So we finally arrive in Long Beach and Emz fell asleep. This was probably the most amusing event of the day. We cracked up so hard. Almost to the point where I felt like I had just done P90x Ab Ripper two times in a row. I couldn’t breathe cuz we were laughing so hard. I think you just had to be there to get it. This is the result of our laugh fest:

_MG_3689

Oh dude, so stohpid Emz had that song stuck in her head but she only knew one line so all day I kept hearing baby are you down down down down EVEN IF THE SKY IS FALLING DOWNNN NA NA NA NA NA. On repeat. The only part of the song she knew. Now I just looked it up on youtube and the song is called “Down” by Jay Sean ft Lil Wayne. DUDEEEEE I really like the I’m Yours remix w/ Lil Wayne HEHE.

So we finally arrived the reception and had some time to take pictures of the decor. Super cute!! They’ve been together since HS. They had their prom pic on display. HS sweethearts ftw!

Test shot w/ the 24-70L. HOLLER.

_MG_3729

Test shot w/ flash. Dude my 430EX reloads so slow. I hate it when things reload so slow and you can’t use it again right after you’ve used it. Especially if you need to use it again and it just doesn’t work. Maybe it’s time to upgrade, na mean.

_MG_3735

Dude the cake looked soooo yummy and pretty. I wanted to secretly dip my finger in it to see what it would taste like thatswhatshesaid.

So after we did that, we decided to set up our tents out on the beach to take a quick nap.

_MG_3754

Left one is Emz. Mine is the fruity multi colored smaller one. Kicked off our shoes, had some Red Bull, took a quick nap, got a tan. I haven’t been to the beach in forever, it felt good to chill on the sand.

I am slightly worried about the repercussions of posting this picture…but this one is the one I call…BLUE STEEL.

_MG_3760

We were on the sand taking some shots of the bridal/groom-al parties + bride&groom as well.
Here’s one of just the boys:

So after shooting, we took a break inside and drank some iced cold water. Mmmm so good. Here are some model shots I got of Emz.

_MG_3954

I like to call this one LIQUID E-MOTIONZ.

_MG_3957

I like to call this one Classy FaSheezy.

_MG_3964

This one is called I Just Farted Really Loudly During the Wedding When the Couple Was Exchanging Vows CRAP What Do I Do?

So the dinner started probably around 7ish and this was their toast. KAWAII DES NE.

_MG_4039

We had to leave early because of a fam situation which resolved itself while we were trying to get home. You know, on the way home we got lost because we were having intense conversations about exciting things. I missed the freeway about 3 times literally and ended up on the 60 almost back near Alhambra…but we were trying to get to central LA back to the church to get Emz car. Then we decided to go to BCD to get some soondubu. But when we got there, we decided against it and went to Hodori instead. Then we heard Jay Chou was going to be at Area so we debated going there. Except, we were extremely exhausted. MY SISTER CHILLED W/ JAY CHOU at his table…hao lucky oh. But that’s me sidetracking again. So after Hodori, took Emz back to her car, then drove home.

So I saved my fav for last…ladies and gentlement, I present to you, the many faces of…DOMOPHOTOGRAPHY.

stupid

OKAY PEACE OUT. Time to eat some STINKYTOFU HOT POT!!!
