Oceanside - Charles Evan Williams Update

Back in August of 2009 I had the sincere pleasure of meeting and photographing Charles Evan Williams, a local Oceanside resident that was brutally murdered. Click this link to North County Times for a complete update on this tragic event.
For months I saw Charles cruise around town in his unique green Impala and I really wanted to ask him to do a photo shoot with it. Finally, one random day in August I pulled over at his shop and asked him if I could take some photos of him with his car. He happily accepted and was really excited to do the photo shoot. Went home and quickly grabbed my equipment and headed back to get some photos before sundown. Snapped a few casual images of Charles and two of his relatives that showed up to be in some of the photos. Ended up with a handful of awesome photos and I knew he would dig them. Met up with Charles and his fiance a few days later to show him the images and he was absolutely blown away by the results. We had a really good conversation about working together and photographing some of his other vehicles.
Walked away from this meeting really looking forward to working with him. He was definitely a guy you could tell was going somewhere in life and he had the positive attitude to go along with it. Let Charles know I needed to make a few changes to the images and I would be back in a couple days to deliver him a CD with the final images. Before I could meet up with him again his life was abruptly taken away for no apparent reason. To this day, I still have not delivered the final images which haunts me for some reason. For the past few years I have followed this case closely, really feeling for his family and what they have gone through.
I've made recent attempts and will keep trying to contact his family members to deliver these priceless images. These photos are probably the last photos taken of Charles Evan Williams.

Free Teeth Whitening - Diamond Dental Studio

Photographed Dr. Sarah Jebreil and her dental team along with a few of her clients this past week at Diamond Dental Studio in Oceanside, CA.
Diamond Dental Studio is in the process of revamping their website and was in need of some headshots to add to their website. Dr. Sarah wanted some headshots of her team and some "after" images of her clients that have had some minor & major dental work completed. After seeing the "before" images that Dr. Sarah photographed it was quite impressive to see the finished results. Below are the headshots of all the employees of Diamond Dental Studio. You will have to wait for their new website to launch before seeing the client "after" images.

For those in a need of a great dentist I would highly recommend Dr. Sarah Jebreil and her team for your dental work. Tell Dr. Sarah you were referred by Joe Hamilton Photography and receive a free teeth whitening with a regular cleaning, exam and x-rays. Please see below for Diamond Dental Studio contact information.

Banksy in Oceanside - Graffiti Artist

The oscar nominated and internationally known graffiti artist Banksy has possibly hit up Bull Taco, a local taco shop located here in Oceanside, CA. There is a lot of buzz over the internet questioning if it is or isn't Banksy's art work. Of course I had to head over and snap a few photos and check it out for myself. For those not familiar with his work check out his website or his movie trailer for more information. I recently watched his newly released movie "Exit Through The Gift Shop" and it definitely gets the creative juices flowing.
Head over to Bull Taco located at 1815 South Coast Hwy in Oceanside to check out the work and enjoy a taco.

Kristen + Mike - Sunset Portraits

Photographed Kristen & Mike the other day down on the beach during sunset with their two dogs Onyx & Tucker. Kristen & Mike were just looking for some casual portraits of the two of them just hanging out during sunset. Kristen actually went to the same high school as me and it was good to catch up with her and meet her fiance Mike. We ended up with a nice array of images and below are just a few I picked out to display.
Thanks again Kristen & Mike and best wishes to you both in your future to come.

Marissa, Cory & Cayson Family Photo Shoot

Photographed little Cayson with his Mom & Dad (Marissa & Cory) just hanging out on a Saturday morning. It honestly seems like just yesterday photographing Marissa for her maternity photos.
Cayson was just way to cool and I think he really enjoyed my photography equipment. From the tri-pod to the camera, he was quite intrigued and had to check everything out. Especially liked his bib that says, "gotta love me", and his jeans that he kept on tripping over. Again, he was just way to much fun to hang with.
Michele and I are still keeping our fingers crossed on little boys... Michele really can't wait until there are little versions of me running around, I can't wait.

Manuel, Maggy & Bella Family Photos

Photographed Manuel and his family down on the beach during a really nice sunset. Manuel used to work with me at OneSource Distributors before I ventured off into photography. Manuel know lives in Texas and he and and his family made a trip out to California for a short visit. After a family photo shoot they headed up to Disneyland for some fun with the family. Special thanks to Manual, Maggy & Bella for keeping me in mind for their family photos.

Oceanside Pier Portraits with Mich & Wandah

Met up with Mich and Wandah the other day to take some photos of them down by the pier in Oceanside, CA. I was introduced to Mich by a friend of mine that trains with Mich at his Martial Arts School & Dojo in Vista, CA. Might be helping Mich take some photos for his website he is going to launch which I will keep you posted on. Wandah, Mich and I met up just before sundown and the weather was just perfect for taking some beach photos. Below are a few of the images taken on the shoot for your viewing pleasure.

Oceanside Real Estate

My oldest brother James's latest completion over in Oceanside, CA. James is doing a great job of picking up foreclosures, renovating them thoroughly then flipping them. This property was a complete disaster before he came in and worked his magic. Very cool to see James do his process from start to finish. It is honestly crazy to see some of these homes before and after they have been renovated.
Nice work James, keep up the good work!
For more information and images on this property please follow the link below.

"BlueBloodRed" & "Being Jared" Birthday Bash

Headed over to Pier View Pub in Oceanside to celebrate my younger brother Jordan's birthday.
Michele and I cruised over a little earlier to check out the Oceanside Street Fair which is held on Thursdays on the same street as Pier View Pub. Plenty of good food and lots of interesting stuff to check out at each of the vendors booths. If you have not attended the Oceanside Street Fair it is worth checking out.
Jordan set up a show for his band (Being Jared) and my other brother Jeff's band (BlueBloodRed) to play a show on his birthday 7.15.2010. Jordan was pretty stoked to finally play a show with his older brother whom he looks up to a great deal. Jeff & Jordan have always been the true musicians of the family and I was proud to see them both doing what they love to do in front of family & friends.
