After seeing a facebook post that my friend Mike was going to be promoted, I HAD to run over to GB America to photograph. It is not often that the photographer is photographed, so I thought it would be fun… besides, I had to drop off a camera body and a lens to Canon in Irvine At the end of class, as is customary, Mike was presented his new rank to the applause of his classmates and training partners. I know he was excited an I could see that he was happy. Here are some shots of him training before and after his promotion. For some of you that do not know, Mike is an AWESOME photographer and guy. He is someone that I look up to in the business world of photography. You can see his work and learn more about him here (http://mikecolon.com/)

I received a couple of the Budo Videos Catalogs (www.budovideos.com) last night. Joe, the editor asked for permission to use a couple photos of Marcio Feitosa for an upcoming article. I was pleased to see 3 photos in there and the article was a good one. I was an interview of Marcio where the main focus was on the future of Grace Barra. You should check it out, subscribe to the catalog, there is a lot more in there than gear, the articles are good and getting better. The one thing that I enjoy is at the end of the catalog, they ask a random question to many big named BJJ folks. This one asked people their favorite movie, it was cool to see what Kyra Gracie and Eddie Bravo say is theirs… check it out !

Grand Opening | San Clemente, CA

This past Sunday I was asked to document the Grand Opening for the Gracie Barra San Clemente Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy. It was a joy and a packed event. There were more BJJ Black Belts there at that one point than ANYWHERE in the world. Each Black Belt shared a technique with the guests and a lot was learned. Here are some photos.
