I signed up for a mountain bike race. First one in about 15 yrs. At least #thegreatdescent trends downhill (+/- 50 miles +/- 10k descent +/- 5k ascent). Last year I camped out the night before the race with friends and shot some photos the day of the race. This year I’m pinning on a number. Wish me luck. @la.tourist.race

Last December I had a unique assignment to photograph Ekow Eshun and Michael Govan in the yet to be art-filled David Geffen Galleries at @lacma BUT, significantly, as the building wasn’t considered finished I had to work around some rules; No photography of unfinished spaces, no photography of yet to be hung artwork, no evidence of construction work including fencing or equipment on standby. It was painfully limiting, but exciting nonetheless. The results were published in @ursulamagazine which I shared previously. Here are a few additional moments that didn’t quite find space in the printed magazine. This week the galleries are finally open to the public. Congratulations to all the people involved over the past 20 years. The building is a monument. The willpower it took to erect it was monumental.

A quick walkthrough of @calpolypomona after the Marvin Rand Fest at @cppenv It’s been some time since I was on a university campus, and I was really feeling how nonexistent the ceiling is in our thoughts when space is organized well. Walking around the campus you can’t help but sense aspiration just dripping from every walkway, corridor and green. In what other built spaces do we feel so free to believe in and persue the unknown?

Felt like I needed this picture today. Holding hands makes the world better. It’s awkward for us westerners, but try it. After seeing so many men holding hands in East Africa my friends @studio.huizenga @zengabros and I tried walking around holding hands. After the initial giggles it felt very normal, even relaxing. There’s just a presence and peace in touch.

Late last year with the incomparable @jeffkoons at @lacma for @avant.arte This was for the announcement of his limited edition Split-Rocker in wood. Mr Koons was gracious and thoughtful—I love when I meet someone so successful who is also so giving to a situation. It was also very cool to glimpse the new David Geffen LACMA gallery. Can’t wait to see the doors open. There’s a nice video on the Avant Arte website about the edition produced by @orestionline who I finally got to meet in-person after conversing online for years. #lacma #jeffkoons

Last year I shot two album covers and press photo sets. Both projects were really challenging as they combined the very strong creative and particular needs and wants of talented people. Jon/ @aarktica_official took a leap with our team, @asitslays and @jonahbirns serving as art direction and design team. The photos here were to be press photos but we also had the goal of making a more surreal ambiance for the vinyl art. You can see the final design if you swipe through. This was an ideal creative endeavor, it felt like a shoot from the 1990s, talent(1-2), creative team (2-3), a location and a limited timeline but a clear vision. We were shooting by 4:30am and wrapped by 8am. No extra bodies to slow things down. Our dancer = @teasips__ It took me forever to share this which just means the album is out and the vinyl is probably sold out.
