Nortec Hiperboreal concert at TJ Beer Fest 2011
On Saturday July 16th, Nortec Collective: Hiperboreal presented their new album "Border Revolver" at TJ Beer Fest 2011 in Tijuana, Mexico. The Tijuana band got a great response from the attending crowd during the live concert, which took place at Tijuana's famous Avenida Revolucion. A two-block section of this street was blocked off to fit in the stage and beer stands.
Above, a small selection of images taken during Hiperboreal's concert.
Their album is available online as a free DOWNLOAD.

2011 San Diego Heart Beach Ball
Yesterday was the American Heart Association's 2011 Heart Beach Ball at the Hotel Del Coronado. Like always there was a great turnout. It was a little overcast, but there were still a lot of opportunities for some great shots. It's always a lot of fun working with the AHA folks.
Next up, the American Heart Association Heart Walk at Balboa Park in September.

Daniella
Last Friday the wife, three kids and I, packed our bags and drove about an hour north of San Diego to visit my brother and his family. It had been a while since we'd visited, so we were looking forward to this quick trip. We relaxed for a couple days and had a great time.
One of my nieces wanted some pictures taken, so I got my stuff from the trunk of my car and got down to work. Of course, with some help from my wife/assistant/MUA. Once she'd done the makeup we started looking into the lighting, background, etc.
We started with the head shots first. Here's one of our favorites.
Arturito, our three-year-old, doesn't really enjoy being left out of the action, so he was doing everything in his power to get noticed. The usual yelling, crying and just being annoying. He didn't calm down until we included him in a couple of the shots. After that he lost interest and went back to watching TV.
Once we were done with the head shots we moved Daniella to one of the sofas in the living room to try a few other options. The following shot was taken by my wife, Lourdes, while I was adjusting the flash and umbrella.
Here's one of the shots we really liked from the sofa series.
We tried to do continue the shoot outdoors at a really nice park nearby. Several gazebos and an artificial lake made for some great locations and backgrounds, but alas, the weather did not cooperate. The sky became terribly overcast and the wind almost blew us and our equipment away.
We plan on going back once the weather gets sunnier, and warmer, to finish the outdoor session.
But still, we had a great time.

Third Annual Sharp Chula Vista Golf Tournament
I covered the Third Annual Sharp Chula Vista Golf Tournament at Salt Creek Golf Club again this year (May 20th). I've had the opportunity to work with Sharp covering several of their events in the past, and it's always been a great experience.
Proceeds from this event will benefit the new, state-of-the-art Cancer Center at Sharp Chula Vista Center, opening Spring 2012.
Great job guys! Till the next event.
