This photo popped up in my facebook memories from 10 years ago! This was one of my first television sizzle shoots in Orange County with House 8 Media. We were a legit skeleton crew, 3 of us. Still one of my favorite cameras to this day the FS7

This one brought back some memories. 📸

Backstage with Vibeline (ProbCause & Chrishira Perrier) with the Live Band 2 years ago. It was one of those moments that reminds me why I love being around live music and artists.

During the Summer Camp Music Festival hiatus, I was still fortunate to keep creating, shooting video at Sol Shine Revery, staying connected to the music community and telling stories wherever I could.

Now that SCAMP is officially back, I couldn’t be more excited. Huge respect to Jay Goldberg Events & Entertainment and the Summer Camp team for bringing it home. Hoping to lock in a media pass for 2026 and get back to doing what I love, working with artists, capturing the energy, and documenting the moments that make this festival special.

Video recap in comments! 🎞️
