For some odd reason my friends has been posting my ass on their websites here’s a prime example with the homies at It’s JDM Yo! LOL check em’ out and grab a shirt.  They’re pretty dope.  Support the homies! Click the link and or the picture to take you to the website… you know you want to!

I do have a model photo.  Since she’s been bugging me all day, here’s my new friend Raichelle (Seriously weird spelling) Viado’s pic from the Nisei.  She was on AIC’s booth and also one of the few models at the show.  As mentioned earlier, this ain’t HIN or some shit that has a whole bunch of them.  But then there’s a lot of random girls walking around aspiring to be the next best import model.  Kinda sad seeing them walking around hoping to get discovered.  I would rather sleep in on a Saturday to be honest with you lol.

Anyhoo Raichelle has been everywhere lately and she’s pretty dope too.  Hit her up and ask her if she needs a ride to the DMV via her twitter.  Hehe it’s an inside joke.. not really go ask her… seriously!  LOL.  Anyhoo check her out.

This is Raichelle saying hi…

This is Raichelle saying Bai Bai..

Do I have more pictures of her?  Ummm nope!  We’ll work together soon enough so stay tuned and I’ll post updates on those but for now, check out her facebook and her myspace.  Thank me later.

Ok since there’s a bunch of car coverage and car topics posted I decided to take a break and share something I saw earlier.  This made my day =) in case you’re wondering, it’s my two future ex wives.  Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis.  I need them both in my life.  Enjoy.

Thanks OJ for the heads up on this!  If you want to see the whole scene, check out the Black Swan Trailer.  Ok now.. Moving on…

Here’s a cool vid of our G37 on GT5 shown on this years CES.  It’s the High End G37 running on the Ring.  One of my buddies found it in youtube last night and I was stoked to see it.  I wish JR could see this.  He would be insanely happy!  Thank you to the peeps at SCEA for immortalizing JR’s name and his legacy in the form of this soon to be hit video game.  Can’t wait till it comes out.

We all sure do miss you JR.  Not one day that passes by that I don’t think of him.  I just wish I can play this game with you and kick your ass in it hehe.

Today was a pretty dope ass day.  Aside from driving a whole bunch of cars with the Nidster and force Feeding her with Sushi, I went to Art Center in Pasadena to check out the grad show of my buddy Arthur Fong.  The next big thing in entertainment arts!!  You can check out his awesome art at http://artisticfong.blogspot.com/.  Anyhooo… Arthur is finally graduating from Art Center after a few years of sacrifices and hard work.  So proud of him since he poured his heart and soul to everything that he does.  He’s a really talented person.  btw Talent is given by god to ugly people, skills is learned lol jk.  But yeah HUGGEEEE Props to Arthur and best of luck with the future ventures (Dreamworks!!).  Once again  Congratulations sir!!

Here’s a few shots from yesterday’s show.  So many cool stuff there.  Paintings, advertising, automotive concepts etc.  It’s insanely cool.  But then I only took a few pictures coz I was busy ogling with all the art in the building.

And here’s a few shots of the other arts from the show

This is more like it.  Girls at spocom booth last formula D posing for 1 shot AT THE SAME TIME!!  Yaaay…

What?  They’re not looking?  It’s ok the one that matters is haha.  To be honest I don’t even know more than half of these girls.  But then the ones I know are the ones that does belong there lol.  Sorry.

Ummm yeah I don’t have any… as I said I’ve been lazy so all I have is whoever was close to me at that time lol.  There were a few girls at the past Remix show but then they were a few feet away from me and I didn’t have my telephoto lens.  It was on my bag and I had to reach down and whatnot bleh too much work so here’s the Boss, Amaya.  Man … why am I posting old pictures of past events from about a month ago hahahah.  Anyhoo here she is kicking my ass and ordering me around.

It got really hot that day so I ended up getting her a tank top but then she’s kinda wearing the wrong shirt for the event.  D1 is no more in the states lol.  But thanks to Greg from Parle clothing for the freebee.

Here’s a few snapshots from the Remix show roll in about a month ago… Yeah yeah I know it’s a long ass time ago but hey, better late than never right?!  Here’s the crew and a few cars from that show.

I know it’s been a while since the Remix Show… actually pretty close to a month.  But believe it or not aside from Amaya’s photos that I gave her, I haven’t really looked over the photos I took.  Actually I gave my camera to whomever wanted to use it so there’s a bunch of random crap on it but here’s one that I like.  A tribute to JR.  Look over us from the heavens bro.  We sure do miss you!

A few weeks ago was One/One show with the fatlace crew and formula D aswel.  It’s always dope to see those guys since it’s been a while since the last time I saw them.  I know it’s late but thanks to Jay from JDMego for the swag that he gave me that day.  Better late than never I guess lol.  I promise I’ll come and visit soon homie!!

Man I’ve been quite busy lately.  So much crap going on with my life.  Mostly good so that works out for me.  Few shows has passed and I hardly even did coverage for them.  Took very little photos to be honest with you.  I finally understand what my friend Lyle told me before.  If you take pictures as a job, you end up not wanting to take pictures on your free time.  Well at least when I sit and relax or on an event I really don’t feel like doing it.  Although I still love it.

I am getting into vintage photography tho, and by vintage, I mean using film and polaroids to be exact.  Even using them during photoshoots.  And so far, it’s been working nicely.  Here’s a quicky of those shots…

And many more to come…  I actually have a lot of shots using medium format film but those needs to be processed and printed and man those are bank!  Just need to finish this last roll on my camera and I should be solid.

It has been quite a busy weekend for me.  Saturday’s party at Kat’s house really drained me but yesterday I decided to go through the one day Vegas tripp once again.  We nt there to watch the band Dead Weathers.  It’s pretty much Jack White’s new band and it was pretty damn awesome.  Can’t beat Vegas + Rock and Roll Combo.  Loved the show and I had the opportunity to record a few of the songs so here’s the opener.  Now here’s Dead Weathers performing at the Pearl, Palms Casino, Las Vegas singing 60 Feet tall and Hang you from the heavens.  Enjoy!

One of my good friends Shinno from Bride USA stopped by the other day coz he borrowed  2 of the lenses that I use for this concert event that he’s doing.  Luckily he stopped by bearing gifts.  Since I’m whoring out my tripod and riceying the shit out of it by covering it with random stickers, Shinno brought me a bunch of random crap from his office.  Can’t complain.  I’ll take it hehe.

I might not use these to rice out my tripod since they’re quality shit.  Some Option stickers, old school Bride decals some OS Stuff and this baller Maziora cellphone strap. Thanks Shinno!!!  You can check out his bloggy blog and view his photography skills and some boobies… oh yea you got me at boobies…

A few weeks ago one of my best friends had a christening (or dedication to whatever religion that shit was) for his daughter Danielle.  This gave us an opportunity for another random high school reunion.  Unfortunately some of our pals couldn’t make the event but no worries, nothing scotch tape, scissors and old photos can’t do.

Since last time we had a faux high school reunion (some didn’t even go to HS with me so meh..), some of our buddies are out of state so we used iChat to reconnect with them as we’re doing shots, now that we’re outside I figured I’ll use a low tech version… cutouts.

Mr. Ferdinand Matias. He couldn't make it today. Unfortunately he was managing the Ross Store that day. Wait that was 10 years ago? ok then carry on...

Ryan... a bear ate him... scroll down for more info...

Mark was on a food coma, hence the rice cooker. BTW that's barely his appetizer.

Irwin is in Texas so he has a legit reason why he couldn't be here. He can live...

Aaah memories… it’s like they were there the whole time having fun with us.  But then we didn’t stop there.  There’s a few other people that wanted to party with us so why not include them right?

Since he hasn't been around the public eye recently tiger decided to chill with us. Hey we don't care if you bang pornstars... we do the same.

Since he just faught in Texas he catched the red eye to Oxnard and chilled, we're more important than all his government pals so we gave him the VIP treatment.

Miss Fox always bugs me to chill so I gave her the opportunity to hang out that afternoon. I think she's waaay overdressed but hey she can do whatever she wants. Just don't give me a thumbs up with the toe thumb please...

For some reason this guy was walking around the streets. Since we don't descriminate we invited him in and have some grub... Man this guy can eat. We're gonna miss you Ryan...

unfortunately our timemachine is only halfway done so the heads of our old selves were the only ones that can come to the party... oh well. Sooner or later we can all do this again. We have a damn time machine for crying out loud!

Just another typical Sunday afternoon with my peeps.  Great company and great time.  We should do this again… Maybe do it on the moon or under the sea or something.  Hmmm it can be done… hell yes, it can be done…
