Fotografia de J

He's back and he is bolder than ever! Barring the many studies and scientific evidence done to cover this subject, all I know is that personally, a time away - away from it all - is good for the spirit, it feeds the soul! When life is wearing you down and you don't know which path exactly you want to take, you step back and if you are J, you go fly to Colombia!

After almost 10 years of being away from home, he left Canada in December to be reunited with his beloved familia in Cali and Santa Marta. I was very happy for him that finally, he had to chance to his Mom, Dad, sister, brothers and all the nieces and nephews who have grown so much since the last time he saw them. Let's try to ignore the fact that he left me with virtually no photos to post but that's another story!

Looking back and reading J's first ever post and photos here, I am reminded of the simpler times when all we had was a point and shoot. When all we did was take a photo, download and post. Everything was untouched and pure of technological magic. Today, all the photos are still unedited (alright, that may be more because I'm lazy and not at all tech-savvy) but you should see J during a shoot, he has taken things to a higher level with expensive SLRs, fancy lenses, accessories, a new attitude and a fresh dose of inspiration and creativity!

Over the years, I have developed a passion for photography (fotografia) in general. In the past few months, I have took photos of Gen whenever we were bored at work, then I told her hey, I would like to photograph you, go change! I never thought how good they were, in fact, I still think they are just nice photos of her. Then ML comes with the crazy idea of making a blog to give people some ideas on how to put things together, how to dress nicely. Since her sense of style is endless from chic to elegant, from fun to serious, from office-like to street-like. All extremes but great. We decided to take some photos and try this idea out and it's working out very well and we both are enjoying this work. Great photos, great style and super writing!


This is my very first post, and I would like to share with you some of my work, something I could have not done without ML's inspiration and encouragement.

Twenty York Street wouldn't be what it is without him and if it were left to me, I would be cutting People's Magazine, taking celebrity outfits and pasting my big 'ol head on top of it! The horror, I know!

I would love for you guys to go and visit J's blog and become his friends too! We would love to hear about what you think of his work!
