We started this weekend with our first session of the year photographing Mike Gallegos, an awesome jazz guitarist and composer. WooHoo!!! Pretty interesting too considering that we did this under a bridge and nearly caused 2 accidents in the process (oops). Luckily we got through it all unscathed.

I can’t wait for the next session!!!
