This page has photos of my adventures that include traveling and people I enjoy being with and everything else.

The film Trigger deals with the hard realities of PTSD after a sexual assault. It's produced by the East LA Women's Center and The East LA Society of Film and Art (TELASOFA). Directed by Juan Escobedo.

Toni Torres and Alejandro Patiño are two powerful actors I love photographing. I've also had the pleasure to direct both on several of my projects that include Marisol, Lydia Chlamydia, Gary Gonorrhea and Papi Papilloma.

I travel once a year to Oaxaca. People often ask why I love Oaxaca city so much. The city is magic and I can't explain why I love it so much.

During my last trip I met a group of kids that loved my camera and wanted to hold it. I couldn't say no. I made a promise to them and myself I would come back and teach them to work the camera. In October 2020 during the Day of the Dead, we'll try to have The Tiny Todd's Short Short Film Festival with these adorable Zapotec kids.
