Alex is a friend and co-worker of mine. He recently got engaged to Kelly and they are planning a wedding for this year. When Alex mentioned to me that he was interested in taking portraits with his fiance, I wasn’t too thrilled about doing the shoot to be honest. Engagement photography is something that I [...]

Sunny drove all the way from Chico, CA to have her portraits taken by me. I was flattered that someone would want to travel that far to work with me. She’s a full time student and is giving modeling a try. So we took few portraits with the San Francisco skyline in the background [...]

Jemma and I have worked on several shoots before but never on The White Seamless. We both thought it was long overdue. My kids usually hang out during my shoots especially when I’m working with Jemma. They like her very much, so much my daughter now wants pink hair…lol Jorge Moreno Jr Photography

Frances Tomei, a model from the Bay Area, found me on Model Mayhem in search of some portraits. I’m not interested in shooting high fashion, so her naturalistic look lent itself to the style. Frances had a wide range of looks and poses – though none of them felt forced or unnatural. I wanted this [...]

When I found out that I was going to be published in Popular Photography Magazine for a story on shooting in low light environments, I was so honored for the wonderful opportunity that I couldn’t stop smiling.

Jemma is one of my all time favorite people to work with. She loves to model, her style is vintage and not many models can dress vintage these days, especially with such incredible results.

Marina contacted me to take a few portraits for her fashion blog, “Urban Stripes“. She wanted to keep the photos simple so we shot on the White Seamless. Who doesn’t like a clean look, right? This was not the first time I had worked with Marina. I met her in 2011 when I photographed [...]

A few weeks ago I helped out a friend of mine and fellow photographer Fred Pique on his photo-shoot with Kalena. It was quite an experience not being the shooter but being the assistant. The pressure was not like the one you have when it’s your shoot. I must admit, that was nice. Seeing [...]
