Photos: Casting Call
Took a friend to a casting call for a rap video (…crank dat…ohhh!). It was over pretty quick so took the opportunity to try some strobist shots around the ATL. Technical Notes: As you can see, SB800 with the diffusion dome, hand held.

Dunwoody Model Meetup | Photo Barn | Lilburn, GA Notes: Nikkor 17-55mm 2.8, and 105mm 2.8 VR Micro for these shots. Shot some with the Photogenic studio strobes, but couldn’t get my usual results so went back to the good ol’ SB800 in a softbox for some images. Nextdoor was an old Chevy remodeling place. Mosquito repellant, […]

Royal Lao Classical Dancers Festival Lao Buddhist Temple of Nashville New Year Celebration May 25, 2008 | Antioch, TN With any dance performance you’d most likely want to capture it on video, but sadly the technology, even at HD resolutions, doesn’t have that same visual appeal to me that photographs have. The above video is of […]

Vietnamese Video Music Awards | Cobb Energy Centre | May 18, 2008 Presented by the Union of Vietnamese Students Associations of Georgia. Lots of talented singers, models and performers. All the proceeds from the VVMA event went towards VOICE, a nonprofit group focused on stopping the human trafficking of Vietnamese refugees in Cambodia. Above Slideshow: […]

Here are some photos of my new friend, the D3. No, not the Nikon (I wish…), but a foldable bicycle, the Dahon Curve D3. 🙂 Best thing about this bike is that it folds into something that can fit in my trunk. And I’ve gotten compliments from random strangers as well as lil’ chillren that want […]

Lao New Year 2551 (2008) | Wat Lao Pothisaram | Conley, GA For those of you whose photographic or cultural interest has been piqued by my photos, I do have to say that almost all of my work deals with beauty–the surface kind. It’s just a natural tendency of a creative person, or actually of anybody […]

Photos from the recent Atlanta Model/Photography Meetup | May, 2008. Been meaning to come out for a shootout for some time, but they’re always on a weekend, and of course I’m always goofing off on those days. Everyone did a great job, and it was fun shooting with people from different backgrounds and skill levels. I know we’re […]

The weather was incredible in New Orleans. While we were playing frisbee at Audubon Park, there was a very nice wedding taking place across the street at Loyola University. Hopefully the people didn’t mind us taking a few shots. The wedding party or bride didn’t arrive in a streetcar though, which would have been quite […]

Macon, Georgia is one of the cherry tree capitals of the world. If you guys go down now, you can still catch the beauty of the city, with nearly every single block covered in the distinct white and pink blossoms. If only the city of Atlanta adopted an urban renewal plan that reflected the South’s original […]

Of late I’ve been trumpeting the struggles of artists, but trying to promote respect for and a better understanding of my Laotian culture and heritage is also difficult. Laotian refers to the many groups of people from the small country of Laos (silent “S”). Lao refers to the main spoken and written language as well […]

If anyone wonders where these “exotic” locations are, the pix were taken, ahem…in front of a Mexican Restaurant, an office building, and in front of a Wendy’s! 🙂

Nice to see the streetcar running in NOLA again. The Hawaii fans had such a huge showing that they could have won the game on spirit alone. When it came to cheering, the Hawaii Warrior dance team really had some moves. Even when the game was well out of reach at 41-3 in favor of UGA, the […]
