I spent the weekend down in Long Beach, California with my friend @AnteHipHop working on his new album cover for his latest release: Cruise Control Vol. 2…
The weather and lighting in southern California is always amazing. We kicked it on the beach all day Friday after location scouting in Laguna and ended up with some gnarly sunburns. The next day we ended up finding the perfect spot for the album cover shot. After heading north to San Pedro we came upon an overlook that was envisioned in the early concept stages. With the help of a friendly crew, we setup the lights just as the sun was coming into the golden hour. The set was disrupted shortly because we were apparently on private property and ended up getting kicked out by security. But not without the final shot that Ante had chose for his newest album!
Ante and I spent the rest of the weekend kicking it with the @CrookedApples crew in downtown Hollywood. Check out the candids at the following gallery: http://prints.fstop13.com/antecrookedapples
