Got myself a new lens hood for my Voigtlander Nokton 35mm. So far, love it! Been out shooting all day with it today.

They really are!! I love all dogs but bullies, especially Frenchies and Bull Terriers, forever have my heart

New post up on Substack! Our great dog turns nine tomorrow so I put together some favorite photos of her over the years. open.substack.com/pub/fotoxav/...

A few studio shots from the recording of the new @corrediablo.bsky.social LP. It’s been cool to document the process. Finished bass yesterday. Now I only have vocals left to go. This record is getting very real!

New blog post is up- the start of the “Some Culture” series documenting our trip to Paris last October! fotoxav.substack.com/p/some-cultu...

Gotta make sure to have a lifetime supply of these things too

If you’ve never shot Aerocolor, it’s cool and really versatile. Enjoy some samples from a day out with the wife and kid a couple of years ago. My lab scanned them a little warmer than I would now, but great results nonetheless

Got a great deal on 10 rolls of Santacolor (Kodak Aerocolor IV) from Kamerastore. Comes out to $8.90 a roll, shipped. I’m a big fan of this film!

PS I have no skin in this game, just really love sharing a good deal on #film 🫡

Would love to be added, thanks!

Just like, do it. Don’t overthink it! Write about each of your shoots, or go take a walk and snap some photos, talk about your experience. You got this big dawg 😤

Adding a little flare to my #scape Friday post. Shot on the way back to LA from recording guitars in Juniper Hills, 12/24.

Like many, I’m fed up with bigger social media platforms. Before politics became a part of that train wreck, I was simply not having fun with them, especially a certain photo-turned-short-video one. But as a photographer, I like having somewhere to share photos, so that’s my goal for the blog.

Just launched something that for me, feels like a big step I’ve been wanting to take for a while- a legit blog. Check it here- open.substack.com/pub/fotoxav/...

Sometimes a drive with speakers blaring the Against Me! catalog is the only way to get through the day.

Long Beach, CA, 1.25.

Met these two while getting out of the smoke and ash in LA for an afternoon earlier this month. Going to continue to explore #streetportraiture this year, especially when dogs are involved!

PS I don’t love the VSCO blog platform but it works for now, and I accidentally let the 7 day free trial lapse on the “pro” membership so might as well use it 🙃

My next step in pulling myself away from meta platforms is underway- a photo blog! Check out the first post here vsco.co/fotoxav/jour...

I’ve 100% become that guy that geeks out when seeing a camera in a movie/show. Rewatching the first season of Severance and I absolutely lost it when I saw the “Lumon” M6

Thank you!! Always makes me think of both Willie Nelson and an early The Ataris record that had the same sign on it

Played guitar for the first time all month yesterday after slamming my car door on my right thumb on 1/3 (couldn’t hold a pick). Felt good. Might do it again today.

Related: planning a Corre Diablo show, first one in almost a year. Hoping to do more of that again all of 2025.
