** BLOG to debut Wednesday late afternoon.
People Who Will Change the World
My name: Aaron Fallon
What I do: I shoot the things that surround me in my life----- which happens to involve music, actors, surfing and beach culture, my little sisters, traveling, and----- a lot of old cars.
Where I live: Venice, California
A piece of equipment I could never part with- my holga
Something I have learned along the way- be flexible --- things rarely go exactly as planned on a shoot, being able to adapt is crucial
3 things I have with me on every shoot- a belt----there's nothing more uncomfortable than droopy drawers when you're shooting. my olympus stylus (film, not digital). my ipod.
What I spend most of my time doing in my business- working on my portfolios and marketing myself to potential clients.
Someone that inspires me- my friend Sheri---she and her husband have been traveling around the world on bicycles. They left from Paris about 3 years ago and headed east.
Something that is overrated- cruise ship vacations----it's just not my style
A vendor I would recommend-
L.A. Photo Group-----equipment rentals. I show up at a shoot and the gear's there and ready to go.
Something I'm saving up for- solar panels--- and a house----- so that I can use them. and a new surfboard.
My style is- a little retro, often deliberate, and sometimes from the hip.
3 things you'll find on my desk- a stack of business cards from people I need to contact. a green swingline stapler. returned promos that have been marked RTS for whatever reason.
What inspires me- music. painters. traveling.
If not a photographer I would have been- like Peter in the movie Office Space
Aaron's favorite image of recent
Something in my refrigerator- you'll always find
tapioca pudding from Trader Joes
Where I shop- B&B Hardware on Washington---they have everything.
The CD I'm listening to- By All Means Necessary www.byallmeansnecessary.com and ---The Sun
When I have free time you'll find me-
riding a very rusty beach cruiser around Venice, probably with a surfboard on the back of it.
A pet peeve of mine is- being passive aggressive and making snide remarks
Sexy is- directly related to confidence.
My best feature- I am very honest (sometimes my worst feature too)
Something I'm passionate about-
being passionate. apathy is a disease-----(i once read that written in chalk on the sidewalk)
Where you'll find me on a Friday night at 9 p.m.-
Hama Sushi.

So think completely white and then maybe a red bull can, or a Betsy Johnson handbag, or sushi. The only thing that we should see in the photograph amongst WHITE is this "something" you indulge in nothing else. Very clean! Send to info@bludomain.com NO using Photo Shop to add the image in.

** The new must- have boxer for men "Bend The Rules" Most men I assume don't really look for the perfect pair of underwear to wear daily. However there is nothing sexier than a man in a good pair of boxers. These boxers rock some hot designs- skulls, crosses and more. And they are anti-bacterial.

Ready for the ski season? A day on the ski slopes can be miserable without a decent pair of ski googles especially in extreme conditions such as snow, sleet and heavy rain.
