Well so far, the two exhibitions were well received.  It seems that the viewer likes the Black and White concept.  Even though, I am ready for color.  I must say that I am favoring black and white images myself.  The absence of color really sets a unique way in forcing you to look at its natural beauty or aesthetics. 

My thoughts for next year is taking the not so pleasing images and pulling the elements forward. It will be a challenge to stay focus for me.  Because, I love beautiful things.  

Happy Fall!  J.Luis 

 

2011 has been exciting and rewarding.  Black and White strategy help me to re-invent myself and gave me a second wind to my work.  Reflecting back to all my photographs was quite a journey.  All I can do is remember that the key to my work is the aesthetics of life.  I thought my vision has changed through the years but it is very similar.  

Eye+angle+light=aesthetics! 

Wow, how time flies!  Another holiday season, and I have been very blessed this year to really be thankful for.  I appreciate everyone's support.  I have had many portrait jobs and I feel went very well.  Also, I had a couple of trips that have produce some great work.  I also reflect on the photos from the past because with the fast pace of work, I have overlooked the beauty that has been sitting in my files. 

Enjoy, and remember saying I love you and meaning is the best gift of them all! 

Have a great holidays!

Last week, I had some engagement pictures that went well.  I am looking for some things that would related to summer.  First one that came to mind was "WATER", it has been so damn hot lately.  Hopefully, I will get a series of that for a nice photo essay.  We will see. 

More Emporia pics coming your way. 

Hope all is well.  Happy Summer!  Keep wet and cool!  Started on my theme already!
