I got a chance to take some cool shots of Splyce, in an attempt to perfect my DJ shooting techiques. I set up 2 flashes, one on camera, and one off to the side to create a hard light effect. DJ Splyce is well known, especialy in LA area…here are the pics:

It’s the next best thing to the real Burning Man experience. Definetely had a bit of a flshback to 5 weeks ago. Great party, and as always CODA sound was off the hook.

Weather was perfect at this year’s Lovefest, a tradition which stated in 2004. In its 3rd year the event drew over 65,000 people and tons of DJs with a party that started at 12pm on Saturday and just kept going through Sunday night at various parties all around the city. This year I decided to go under the radar and freelance for my buddies at metrowize.com Their high profiles sponsorship at the event made more sense for me to put down my phatcatphoto hat, and give them the best exposure with my photos. The event was great, although I did not keep track of which DJ was playing where, going from one stage to the next. The experience was amplified by a bit of pre partying, getting away from the sun at our friend Jason Knight’s place, located not too far from the Civic Center. As always, I don’t like to go into too many details, and give my photos a voice, enjoy!

I met Ian at an Armani Exchange party where he was spinning. I offered him a free studio session, if he played at my studio opening party, he agreed. We both got a great deal, since I had a somewhat famous DJs spin at my event, and he got a great photoshoot. In addition to the DJing I also got exposure on the Energy 92.7 website, myspace, and other sites. I ended up giving him my deluxe package, 4 hours in studio and outside
