Back to the Future Photos

Just came across an Argentine Photographer Irina Werning.

Thought this was a brilliant idea and executed so well. I only wish I had thought of it first ;)

Also really liked her dog ones. I've seen a lot of similar type projects, but again she did it really well and the dog clearly has a huge personality.

Warpaint with the Growlers @ the Observatory  (formerly the Galaxy Theater)




The second in the string of bras I've seen thrown on stage at the Observatory. This one has some writing in it, I spent far too long trying to figure out what it says, but I did make out there was a phone # on it....hm...

Allen Stone with Honeypie @ Constellation Room

Allen stone is one of my favorite new finds. I signed up to shoot this show because my friends Honeypie were opening, but was very pleasantly suprised and blown away by Allen. He has a truely incredible voice.

Dec 8th

This Scott Weiland show by far goes down as the worst show of 2011, and possibly of all time. (And I've been to a LOT of shows over the years!) The almost 3 hours late aside, his performance and vocals were truly appalling; I've enjoyed listening to ally cats fight more. I'll admit that I was fed up from waiting and basically snapped what I needed and got the hell out of there. But those first few songs alone added up to the worst show of all time for me, so I don't even want to image how much worse it got. I still cringe when I think about it. Ick!

Bijan Gilani - Bijan Gilani is an Ex-Millionaire who is now "Orange County's most brilliant, classiest homeless person"
Had the privilege of photographing a truly incredible man with an even more fascinating store this. I really hope that someone gives this guy a chance soon so he can get back on his feet sooner rather than later.
