Caminos October Cover
As many of you know, I shoot most of Caminos' cover images. For the October cover, they told me they were running a story on increased Latino (mostly Mexican American) enrollment at the local community college. Considering the current political climate, I felt it was necessary to create the image below. Enjoy!

Gaffes...and such...
I love shooting events...yes, I did say that...most photographers hate them...they don't like the unpredictability...I dig it! Every time I shoot events, I capture some funny, weird, interesting, and strange stuff. They're typically poorly composed...lit terribly, etc...but I like it like that sometimes. Now, I typically never edit them...they never get to become a jpg...they stay NEF forever (for you Nikon users). I do this to preserve peoples integrity...but today, I'll cut loose...hopefully Cassie & Kevin won't kill me for using their friends and family for my own glory (ok...they're not too incriminating...nor worth much glory). Anyway...if you're a people watcher, you might enjoy this...click HERE to see them.

My Mom, Aunt, & Grandmother
My pretty mother, my super sweet aunt (who passed away in 1994), and my grandmother with her 2nd husband. Unfortunately, I don't know my grandmother well...dang, I can't even understand her when she talks! All these pics were taken before I was born...I believe in the mid to early 70's. My 2nd cousin sent them my way...thank you Miriam!
And this is why we take pictures......wow....

Asante
A few months ago on my first of 3 flights to Florida, I was sitting next to a rather important man. We talked...meaningful talk. He asked why we chose to relocate to Southern Oregon...asked about my kids, etc. I told him I was a photographer...he worked for some medical thing...he wasn't very specific. At the end of the flight he stated, "Good luck, Ezra." I told him I would see him around...because it's a small valley. I remembered his name. Roy Vinyard. As soon I as I got to Florida, I googled his name for his contact info...all in effort to send him a kind email. I do this often. No such luck...his email isn't public. But I did find out that he is the CEO of
Asante Health System...the largest healthcare provider in this part of the state.
Fast forward half a year...and Asante contacts me...they want me to photograph their annual
Carpenter Awards Celebration...in addition to doing a few portraits of Dr. Brian Gross. I landed this little gig thanks to a fellow chamber member (Linda Farland). It gave me the opportunity to reintroduce myself to Roy. He remembered me.
On a flight to Florida in February, I was sitting in front of 3 guys that had just started a t-shirt company. They got on the plane drunk...and got drunker! It was a 5 hour flight of drunken madness. They were super obnoxious, rude, inconsiderate, loud...and just straight up offensive!
I think you get my point. Always be on your best behavior!
This is my favorite picture from the Asante event...enjoy!

My near death experience!
Let me tell you about my near death experience yesterday. I'm shooting the interior of this lovely cabin (below). You see that ladder...I climbed up it with my gear...I'm solo...no assistants...no nobody! Tripod, camera, light stand, light...I get it up there safely...including myself. I get situated upstairs...and start shooting. Long story short (look at the image to the right)...I almost backed off of the ledge b/c I wasn't paying attention. The crazy thing is...the cabin is well secluded...I was alone...and I had no cell phone reception. I would have been screwed...but thank God, I live to shoot another day!
Hope you enjoy the images!
