5 Minutes on the Santa Monica Pier
In our fast paced world and way of life here in Los Angeles, have you ever stood in one location and just looked around?
When I’m out on a shoot, I have very specific sites, scenes, and locations in mind.

The people
The actions
The smells (Well, you won’t be able to get a hint of that from the shots below.)
The sounds (See above)
And just the feeling in the air
Here are the results of my total immersion in the Santa Monica Pier environment; and in less than 5 minutes:
You’ll be surprised what you’ll see when you stop, look, and listen.

I watched Selena shoot a music video on the Santa Monica Pier. She seemed like a really nice kid. What a shame.
On the upside, I’ve seen some good summer concerts there too.
