Vera Chow, Costume designer.

The first time I met Vera, I was working as the set photographer on a small indie film.

I took a photo of an actor friend while she applied the finishing touches to his costume.

She proceeded to yell at me about not taking photos now. Later she also yelled at me for taking up too much space in a hallway with my 2 camera bodies.

She told me later that this was her way of flirting with me.

I thought...she's hot and spicy. Now we're engaged.

A few shots of this year's "Breakout in Film" awardee, Laurence Shou on the UNFO red carpet. I also happened to witness Lawrence meeting last year's winner, Izaac Wang (Didi) as they exchanged compliments on each others performances.

Andrew Cole and Andrea Whitt at the Legendary Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown.

This month I've been thinking about new beginnings and how 2025 was a such a crazy roller-coaster for so many of us. Sometimes life makes it hard to keep chasing our dreams while not losing ourselves and giving up hope. Here's to my friend Andrew, whose resilient spirit inspires me to hold onto positivity and keep chasing!

This intimate concert was just weeks before Andrew lost so much in the Palisades Fire. If you have a moment, please treat yourself to some amazing music at his page @iamandrewcole and donate to the link in his bio. In this time, let's keep supporting people who create, who inspire, who bring beauty and art into this troubled world. ✌🏼

It was an honor to shoot the cover for Celebrate Arkansas Magazine again, this time with the NCAA phenom Majo Marin! 2025 NCAA Individual Champion and the SEC Player of the Year. This was a fun shoot close to home. Thanks to my amazing assistant/stand-in/fiancée Vera and boss lady Payton for making it happen despite a super tight schedule!

Looking back, 2025 has been a roller-coaster of a year. We finished a chaos filled January in LA with a much needed time fun and laughter at the Loud Snakes LNY Show. Here's a few shots of some hilarious and talented friends at the icehouse in Pasadena. @crazywokeasians @kikifunnymama @derek_mio @mrnigelng @iammagicyoung

It's always so cool to capture a player's first win on Tour! Here's Ingrid Lindblad 🇸🇪 with her first LPGA Tour victory at the JM Eagle LA Championship presented by Plastpro.

*last photo: Ingrid's mother and members of her home club, Ringenas GC, arranged to print out one of my photos to hang proudly at the golf course. They surprised her with a small celebration and photo presentation when she passed through home between tour stops.
