\"\"<\/p>\n

I just spent four days shooting the Toyota Long Beach Grand Prix… it rocked.<\/p>\n

I’m not going to lie… it was damn hot, fairly crowded at times, loud of course, somewhat disorganized, and at times it was even boring… But it was a lot of fun overall.
\nI was there to cover various race teams and some drivers that we sponsor, and as it was my first time out to the Grand Prix I tried to meet some photographers that have shot there to give me a few pointers about what to and not to do.
\nActually, I even bumped into one of my favorite photographers there, Dustin Snipes, who does incredible work with lighting and sport portraiture. Check him out at www.dustinsnipes.com<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m currently uploading nine different images to my portfolio. I’m going to continue to go through the rest and possibly swap out some images in the week ahead.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And check out this shot… come on, that’s fun, right? Haha, I think I just like the reflection of the fire in the wing…<\/p>\n

I also have the AMA Motocross races coming up this weekend to shoot. So, I’ll be busy for another couple weeks. I’m hoping that next month I’ll be able to start back on my fashion projects. I had a number of things lined up before all the race seasons kicked off.
\nAlthough it is pretty amazing to be too<\/em> busy right now… not many people can say that.<\/p>\n

So, go check out the Racing<\/a> section of my portfolio.<\/p>\n

And check back this weekend for Motocross…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
