Piuma

the book...

The book goes well. It's an interesting project but I'm having a lot of fun learning how to actually put a book together. The pictures have to tell a story, the story has to tell a story and there's all these "rules" that you have to abide by that you don't have to when you say ... blog. So it's cool. I'm stoked about it. It's like a college art project except this one's a litlte bigger and I don't get a grade - I get a paycheck.

Other than that life in Cali is great. It's sunny and warm and I try to stay outside as much as possible.

Stay tuned. For what? Who knows. We'll see.

Peace,

Barry

My photography inspiration Noah Grey's husband, Barry passed away a few days ago. This hits home in weird ways and just makes me want to point out how precious life and love is. In all shapes and sizes we should focus on the positive of this world and force negativity out of our individual lives. Simplify your own life and help those around you to appreciate beauty and realness.

Peace,

Back in LA

I'm back in Los Angeles! Yeah...it's nice to be back home from tour. It's nice to call California my home. And it's warm and beautiful - which is also nice. =)

Tour was amazing. It was by far the coolest 2 months of my life to date. Life on the road is fast, exciting and always new. Being in a different city every single day, living in hotel rooms, and treated like a rock star never got boring and I'd recommend it to anyone. The people became family, every need was taken care of and for the first time I felt like the photographer I've always wanted to be. There wasn't a moment to complain or an event that was unpleasent.

Currently I'm woring on my biggest project ever - a book called Along For the Ride. (the title may change. . . who knows). I've got representation and everything lined up for the book to be published! Now I just have to put it together. It's a fun learning process and hopefully the start of something fundamental to my career.

This is a good time in my life. Just coming off an intense trip across the country and chilling out. Catching up, setting up, and starting up. The sun is shinning (literally) in my direction and I feel good and full of positive energy.

Peace,
