Arroyo Seco Weekend Combines Music and Food at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena

There’s sweat dripping down your back, but you’re not complaining. You spent twice as much money on food than you normally would, but you’re starving so you’ll tolerate it. If you read the previous sentences and thought I was describing a day at Disneyland, you would have made a good guess but an incorrect one.

My 15 Favorite Songs to Listen to While Photographing and Blogging

Photographing food in restaurants, editing food photos, and writing reviews is one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. Sure when I have kids, buy a home, and pay off my student loan that sentence may change a bit, but until then this is my greatest accomplishment. In the last two and

“Started a Cleanse” Parody Music Video

There aren’t too many events or things in my life that stand out which I’m proud of. Sure there may be one or two incidents here and there that I’ve done that made me happy, but nothing so significant that it has made me swell with joy at the mere thought of it. When I

BTS: Recording the “Started a Cleanse” Music Video with David Geathers

To say that I’m lucky to have found David Geathers of We Engage Agency to produce my music video would be an understatement. However, for the grace of time and my inability to find a better synonym the word is perfectly fitting. After having a song produced and a cover art created, the next step

Alexis Rawlins is the Best Graphic Designer, Period

Graphic designers and similar creatives aren’t mind readers, but I think Alexis Rawlins might be. Somehow, she knows exactly what I’m looking for even when I give her very little information. I hate to say it, but I do that often. I met Alexis a few years at a job where we both worked; I

BTS: Recording “Started a Cleanse” at Truth Studios

I can’t lie, recording a song for the first time was pretty scary. It was a little scarier than running out of gas on the freeway, but not as scary as finding Chucky under your bed. It was really, somewhere in the middle. Growing up I’ve parodied songs, but never did anything with them. Whether

[New Music Friday]: “Started a Cleanse”, My Food Parody to Maroon 5’s “Don’t Wanna Know”

I don’t know how to start this off other than by stating the obvious: I wrote a parody song about a restaurant! It’s crazy to say that out loud—well in text—but I’ve been working on this so-called project for a while now. It all started late last year as I listened to “Don’t Wanna Know”
