Semana Jalisco Cover 09

My image of Marielena Bravo, Señorita Jalisco Los Angeles, illustrates the cover of Semana Jalisco magazine.
The annual publication celebrates The Rebozo, a clothing accesory commonly used in Mexico for centuries.
She wears a couple of rebozos on her body and one more on her head showing the many ways to sport this classic garment, some rebozos fly in the air in the background framing her beauty.
I feel so honored for working on this commission.

Marielena Studio Photo Shoot

As promised, here I present to you more images of Marielena Serrano.
I shot this studio work as part of an editorial piece for Semana Jalisco Magazine.

Aurea and Ulysses' Wedding. Miami, Florida.

Beautiful Aurea is from Puerto Rico, Ulysses is a talented musician from Kansas City MI, now they both share their lives in sunny Florida.
I had the opportunity to document their destination wedding at The Newport Beachside Resort in Sunny Isles, Florida.
We all got a break from the stormy weather that they had during the entire week.
No rain on the 4th of July. One more reason to celebrate.

The event was timely coordinated by Tammy Malamud, Catering Manager of the Hotel.
Patricia Ozorio from Shine Salon & Spa was in charge of makeup and hair styling.
Flower arrangements by Desiree Munera from Field of Flowers
Excellent performance by the Mariachi Voces de America conducted by John W. Patiño.

Aurea + Ulysses, Sunny Isles E Session.

Let's say that the session went from the cool blue Florida sky to the warmer turquoise of the ocean all the way to a red-hot steamy private moment.
Miami style, with notes of Puero Rican and Mexican flavor.
Spicy.

Cafe Tacvba. Celebrating 20 años

Cafe Tacvba one of the most respected rock bands from Mexico is celebrating 20 years of some kick ass good music.
On June 26 they brought their show to Los Angeles as part of their 20/20 Tour. 20 años, 20 Ciudades.
Wow!, what a show, I was happy to see that their performance is getting better with age, just like with good wine.
Rubén, singer of the band, is still so full of energy and his powerful voice rocks.






Backstage I met with some good ol' friends like Jerry, considered a sound guru by many in the industry.


I shot this image of Jerry back in the 90's when he was taking care of the LA local scene.


Here is Jerry again, now touring as sound manager for mexican rock band Molotov.
Keep on rocking bro.
