Please Help Entreamigos.

Non-Profit

Entreamigos is the non-profit in San Pancho that I have been working for/with for the past six years. It has grown from a one room makeshift space to a real live amazing community center serving both the children of San Pancho and their families. One of the highlights of this past year was the Circo de Los Niños. I posted the preparation for the circus here, but never got to putting up the actual show so here it is.

The reason this is coming now is we have an awesome opportunity to get a matched grant made possible by Loaded Skateboards. For every dollar that is donated Loaded will donate one as well. This is all going to help finish our new design center so please in this time of giving think of Entreamigos because every little bit helps!

Wedding Film.

weddings

I heart film. I just got home after a long day of preparing for the art festival that’s held every year in San Pancho and what do I see, but three emails from the FIND lab telling me that my scans are ready to download. I am giddy with anticipation and had to upload the first two of the lovely Erica. There’s so much to be said about her amazing day, but at a later date. Right now she and Brooke are heading off on a month long honeymoon traveling around South America. So jealous. Kodak Portra 160NC.

Hampton Beach with the Family.

life

When I was in the States for weddings this summer I had the chance to shoot a lot of film. A lot. I haven’t really posted anything yet, but now that my crazy fall is winding down I’m hoping to get everything up here. Here is some from a trip with the family to Hampton Beach, NH and a couple stragglers from a cloudy day on the Cape. All Portra 400.

Jaime+Eric Day After Photo Session | San Pancho, Mexico

portraits . trash the dress

Jaime and Eric held their wedding at an all-inclusive to accommodate their friends and family and make it as easy as possible for them to not have to do anything at all while down here to celebrate their wedding. Since that’s not really their style they decided to spend a week after the wedding in San Pancho, also known as my hood. We got to hang out and have some drinks together which I loved because really my clients are more and more getting to be my close friends. We also spent one afternoon shooting around town together from the ruins to the beach. Jaime had this idea that she wanted to do a Frida themed shoot for part of it and she totally played the part while Eric had to forcibly not smile because as everyone knows Diego Rivera was always super serious in photographs. At least that’s what Jaime and I told him.

Here are some of my faves.

Jaime+Eric | Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico

weddings

I first met Jaime and Eric when they came down to do some scouting for their wedding back in February. As we were in the middle of our meeting (I use that term loosely since we really just hung out and chat) Eric got the news that his new rugby television show (he is the chairman of the Canada Rugby League) was green lit so we were already off to a great start. Jaime is no slouch herself being an incredible designer and writing her awesome food blog The Tomato Snob. She has some great recipes on there some of which I have actually attempted and more or less failed most of the time, but they still come out pretty delicious. It’s not important how they look it’s how they taste right? (Says the photographer…)

They spent the day with 60 of their friends and family at Dreams Villa Magna in Nuevo Vallarta. After the wedding they came up to San Pancho for a few days and we got to hang out and take some photos in the ruins and around town. Those will be up on Monday.

Their wedding is also being featured in the new Wedding Bells magazine hitting newsstands this week. Congrats guys!
