Funky Fresh Hot Off The Press
Hello Beautiful People! I am so excited to have been featured in the latest issue of Funky Fresh Magazine. It was both an honor and a ridiculous pleasure to work and be alongside so many phenomenal artists.
I first met Founder and Editor in Chief Lena Hart when I was seeking a photographer to shoot photos for my website last year. We hit it off right from the start, so when she contacted me to see if I’d be interested in being interviewed for the magazine I jumped on it.
Lena’s talent is pure genius mixed with healthy dose of fun. What I love about working with Lena is her ability to draw out and amplify the various facets of her subjects – it’s actually a lot like what I do, but her medium is photography and mine is…well, you’ll read all about that in the article. This particular shoot allowed some aspects of me out that don’t always get to come out to play to be seen and juxtaposed with the energy and spiritual work I do, like my car aficionado and mechanic background.
One of Lena’s partners in creativity, DJ Cellus, brings his own brand of funk to the mix, curating a different themed mix tape of incredible musicians to compliment each quarterly issue.
