I Can See Your Voice

My dearest friend Candice Callins was on the hit show I Can See Your Voice on Fox. She was THE GAMER, as she is a gamer on TikTok. She did an amazing job - including the final duet with Rick Springfield. [Definitely check it out] During the 'Unlock My Life' segment when they show a video from The Gamer's cellphone they featured a TikTok promo photo I took of Candice. I was not expecting that - it was a very wonderful and pleasant surprise. You can check out the segment here: https://youtu.be/S209Ohsuxck

Volant Magazine

In January, I decided to buy a camera and practice photography. I wanted to learn to take better photos when I traveled - since I travel so much for work. Writing and photography are what got me through the pandemic. I am excited to say that as of today, November 4th, I have officially been published in my first print magazine - Volant Homme with model Jake Jensen who believed in me so much he submitted the photos to the magazine. Photos begin on page 16, which you can preview online: Volant Homme #08

Travels with Michael

1870 Haunt Manor

During the time of Covid, we are facing our first Halloween that is being shut down due to the virus. Normally, I would have already been to Universal Halloween Horror Nights and perhaps have gone to another larger event or horror maze in the area. This year, however, for safety concerns - and having to social distance and avoid large crowds, most events - including the massive Halloween Carnivale - in West Hollywood have been cancelled. Luckily, I was able to attend an awesome horror-themed Escape Room in Fullerton, California: Zoe, by Escapade Games. That was definitely kick-ass - if you are local to Los Angeles or Orange County, I highly recommend it. But one thing you need to check out is 1870 Haunt Manor in Anaheim, CA. Created by 16 year old Mike Fernandez - it is a so...

I’m Not Perfect – BTS

Did an awesome photo shoot with my homegirl Candice Callins yesterday. This is our third photoshoot so far, starting with the one we did earlier this year when I first bought my camera. Candice was the FIRST person I photographed. I wanted to learn how to use my camera and she allowed me to do a photoshoot. I was so nervous - but was also excited. This was something new to me. And I think the photos turned out great. We did a fitness shoot....and even though I LOVE the photos, I look back on them now and see how much I have improved. Quarantining during the pandemic has kept us all mostly isolated. So to break the monotony I took photos. I could walk around my neighborhood and take photos - so it was a great way to practice and hone my skills! Check out the BTS video below as wel...
