Halloween in New Orleans

I spent halloween with my friend Dave and my girlfriend Erica in New Orleans French Quarter. It was PACKED! Dave is a former National Park Ranger for the New Orleans district, so he knows the all the historical details. Dave was a red ghost. Erica was a character from the movie True Romance (I never saw it), and I was Bootsy Collins bringin back the soul to New Orleans.
I'll show the other images when I get a chance to do some post production.

On the Road Again

I am in Florida for a wedding right now and will be going to New Orleans for Halloween. I'll try to update with some images while I am on the road.

Photo Session for Para Los Ninos

I did a photo shoot a few days ago for Para Los Ninos. It is a non-profit organization to help kids.

Joe Photo Goes to School

Joe Photo spoke at photo class.
He came by last night for the wedding photography class that I am in this semester. Needless to say, the class did not expect an overly animated and extremely passionate metro sexual dude to be speaking. Usually the class asks a lot of questions, but they were pretty entertained and shocked to just listen to Joe explain all of his styles from getting clients to sign retainers, to how he handles the mother-in-laws, and his post wedding rituals with wine and quesadillas (which I was able to witness first hand last saturday).

In the Studio

Some studio work I did over the weekend.

Studio Class Assignment

We had a team effort in the studio for a class project. I just got my new wide angle lens, so I was appointed project assignment photographer.

Photographing Kids is Fun.

I shot a wedding about a few weeks ago. There were a lot of kids and I was able to shoot them having fun all day long. They warmed up to me after I started making fun of them. I don't think they expected a professional photographer to be able to "kid" around with them, but I do that all the time anyway. And then when they get real friendly, they ask to take the photos. Ordinary day and life of Joseph Colombo...








I gave the kids the camera play around with. They mostly shot me.

Dali comes to Los Angeles

There is a new Dali exhibit that opens up at LACMA next week. Dali is still a huge inspiration to the art world today. I am always blown away by his work.
