This is the second look for the day and we shot this in the Mesquite Sand Dunes of Death Valley . The same place they shot the sand dunes scenes in Star Wars . This was an hour before sun down where it was so dark that you can't even see your hand in front of your own face .
I like this button up for it's versatility . Sturdy fabric thats casual enough to wear unbuttoned but also have plenty of interesting textures and patterns to keep it interesting while buttoned up . It's perfect for the fall season in Los Angeles where it's still 100 degrees in October . Kama's sold separately .

I rarely wear a suit and I rarely post photos with my girlfriend. Above and below are a lot of both those things . I also rarely smile and theres a little bit of that going in the last photo . but only barely .
I've dressed up by dressing down so much for the last decade of my life that I was recently thrilled for a reason to buy this suit . One , so that I could take these photos , and then second , because I had a bunch of events to go to where suits aren't required but generally encouraged . Much like deodorant and smiling .
Courtney and I generally spend a lot of our weekend time with each other meandering away with our cameras but this time we invited our talented friend Tee Watcharothon to document us playing dress up . Thanks Tee !
SUIT | ZARA
SUNGLASSES | RAYBANS

Here are some photos of a shoot that I did for PUBLISHBRAND a couple weeks ago . It was my first time working with their company though I've a fan of their clothes and culture . Still getting to know their preferences in aesthetics . There will be more to come !
Special Thanks to Jolee and Heyyeh for waking up bright and early to work with me .
Who actually jogs in their joggers ?
For someone who grew up in southern California , I have a distant cousin relationship to the beach and all of its glory . I didn't come here much as a kid and through out college , it was a blur of bonfires , red cups , and terrible hot dogs . In those years I didn't see the beach or water as much i felt the sand and heard the ocean on surround sound behind complete darkness and awfully mixed drinks .
I love the beach in theory . Its beautiful in photos in movies when you can sit comfortably on a couch in a temperature controlled room and don't have to deal with the crowds or the sand . The sand is everywhere for days . I don't go often , but I like the option that I COULD if the mood was to ever strike me .
It makes sense I guess that in my adult life I basically only go to the beach for photoshoots and video shoots . This particular one was done around 7:30 am on a Saturday . We were proudly the first one's in the parking lot .

NEOCLASSIC SPRING 2015 LOOKBOOK
Had to pleasure and opportunity to work with NEOCLASSICS on their Spring lookbook 2015 . Shared the frame with the beautiful and talented Neka Stephens and basically spent the day doing a lot of math equations in my brain while photos were being taken of me . Solve for X .
Windowsills
Have you ever wondered how it is that actors sit so comfortably against windows or ledges in movies ? Then when you try it at your favorite window location you end up sliding off or have your butt sore from the muscles clenching onto dear life ? Yes I've been there , I feel your pain .
That is why I have a couple sitting positions below for you to copy in order to hang out against windows like a pro ! I would know , I've been on TV
Here we go ...

Do you ever just pour yourself a cup of coffee , open a news paper and then stare off into nothingness ? Its my favorite morning activity .
You're Welcome .
NEW YORK NEW PHOTOS
Spent a week in New York last week and got a lot of photography news !
Also , Thanks to all the friends that came out to see me in their busy New Yorker life , which is said to be a more manly , tougher , more gangster version of us wussy LA folks . I don't know if that is true , but I did have to wear all my clothes at once during one of those eighteen degree days .

NEW YEAR NEW PHOTOS
Would You Pick Me ?
Below are my audition photos for a nineties boy band . I'm going for the position of the serious and broody guy that has vocals on mostly the slow songs . There will usually be a lot of rain or at least wet concrete during my section of the music video . I will rarely look into the camera when singing but when I do it's because you know I've hit the pinnacle of my vulnerability . Girls that are into me will be the type that wants to change me but eventually figure out that this is just the way I am and they wont be able to save me because I'm drowning . Drowning in the ocean of impressively deep feelings weighted down with an oversensitive heart and chiseled jaw . I'm perfectly okay with seriously developing a drug and or alcohol problem later in my career .
I'm also perfectly okay with a come back career later in life when i find myself again and gain fame in the genre of Christian rap .
WESTCOAST WINTER
Winter in LA means you get to put on a sweater . It is not lost on me that while most of the world are layering up/buttoning up/wrapping up their bodies and shielding themselves against mother nature , I am walking through downtown LA in December with my sweater and hot coffee talking about how it's starting to get a little chilly . I love sweaters and I love this particular one brought to you by the people of IN//BEINHABITED .
