It’s been a minute since I hopped in an uber with the camera in hand but this was my calling. I wanted to be a fly on the wall and capture the emotions of the people marching in DTLA today but at times caught myself getting choked up. Seeing kids, families and normal folks like myself participating and from all walks of life really gave me hope about the future. Im always optimistic when it comes to hope but I remember not wanting to get out of bed the day after the election. Anyways, here are some of my snapshots from today’s Anti Trump Rally.

“Sometimes I find myself on stages, behind turntables, on a plane, at Dodger games or somehow next to a celeb and I always want to break out my iPhone and snap a photo. Not sure why but we all leave this world in one shape or form, and I just want to remind the world that I once existed too” – me

I’m not sure why but for the most part of my daily errands I carry my camera or I phone in the ready position and ready to capture anything that might catch my eye. Below are a series of snapshots from Dallas, Watts, Venice and various dj gigs around town. All shots caught on my I phone 6 Plus or Nikon D90.

Today was just super magical. We got to explore United Record Pressing which use to press up over a thousand records a month during the reign of Motown. There is so much history and yet the pressing continues! Arnold’s Country Kitchen was the highlight on the food front. Puckers was comforting, Merchant had an amazing and tasteful burger, but Arnold’s hit the spot with their Meat and Three menu. Next up was RCA Studio B! Standing on the cue spots where Elvis once stood was pretty magical. Also hearing the sorted string sections in this magical studio gave me chills. Next up is Bonnaroo!

Looking forward to exploring this city’s rich history. Can’t share much but me and the Fuse Team are running around Bonnaroo, eating at some of the best Southern eateries, doing some record digging and checking out some of the coolest historic studios in the area. Follow the real time adventure on my new snapchat! anthonyvaladez1!

The past several days here in Tokyo have been visually incredible. I always knew in order for me to maintain this passion with the camera that it would involve me being far away from home. For some odd reason I picked Tokyo on an open date to just pack up and leave. Things have been crazy with projects back home but I needed a spiritual reset . I landed a gig with some cool folks in Shabuya, mediated with Monks in Kyoto and just enjoyed being alone. Hope you dig these snapshots!
