Just a dude with some cameras and guitars from Los Ángeles, the city of the 2024 World Series champs. 🍉
I also make loud ass music with Corre Diablo (@corrediablo)

- A few studio shots from the recording of the new @corrediablo.bsky.social LP. It’s been cool to document the process. Finished bass yesterday. Now I only have vocals left to go. This record is getting very real! #believeinfilm #musicphotography #filmphotography #lapunk #recordingstudio

- Got a great deal on 10 rolls of Santacolor (Kodak Aerocolor IV) from Kamerastore. Comes out to $8.90 a roll, shipped. I’m a big fan of this film! PS I have no skin in this game, just really love sharing a good deal on #film 🫡
- If you’ve never shot Aerocolor, it’s cool and really versatile. Enjoy some samples from a day out with the wife and kid a couple of years ago. My lab scanned them a little warmer than I would now, but great results nonetheless Film Washi X (Different brand, but same film) Minolta CLE M-Rokkor 40mm

- Just launched something that for me, feels like a big step I’ve been wanting to take for a while- a legit blog. Check it here- open.substack.com/pub/fotoxav/...
- Like many, I’m fed up with bigger social media platforms. Before politics became a part of that train wreck, I was simply not having fun with them, especially a certain photo-turned-short-video one. But as a photographer, I like having somewhere to share photos, so that’s my goal for the blog.

- Sometimes a drive with speakers blaring the Against Me! catalog is the only way to get through the day.
- Long Beach, CA, 1.25. Met these two while getting out of the smoke and ash in LA for an afternoon earlier this month. Going to continue to explore #streetportraiture this year, especially when dogs are involved! Fujifilm 400 Leica M4-2 Voigtlander 35mm f1.5 #photography #filmphotography
- My next step in pulling myself away from meta platforms is underway- a photo blog! Check out the first post here vsco.co/fotoxav/jour...
- PS I don’t love the VSCO blog platform but it works for now, and I accidentally let the 7 day free trial lapse on the “pro” membership so might as well use it 🙃
- I’ve 100% become that guy that geeks out when seeing a camera in a movie/show. Rewatching the first season of Severance and I absolutely lost it when I saw the “Lumon” M6
- Played guitar for the first time all month yesterday after slamming my car door on my right thumb on 1/3 (couldn’t hold a pick). Felt good. Might do it again today. Related: planning a Corre Diablo show, first one in almost a year. Hoping to do more of that again all of 2025.
