Hidden in Plain Sight

was part of the inspiration behind choosing the Ricoh GR III camera for Star Trails back in 2023. I wanted a camera that could capture real moments without making people feel like they had to pose or become camera shy in front of a big camera and lens.

The small build of the Ricoh allows me to be a fly on the wall capturing moments from the trails to the streets. It’s a camera I take EVERYWHERE.

I really love photography, but what I appreciate most is seeing how differently we all view the same world. Portraits, documentary, landscapes, & everyday life. Give ten people a camera on the same block and you’ll probably get ten completely different photographs. That’s what makes it special. Your perspective matters. Take the photo, even if no one else ever sees it.

My love for photography started when I saw the work my uncle was shooting. They weren’t the usual family gatherings or holiday photos. They were candid frames of friends, everyday moments, and parts of the city that no longer exist. The idea that you could capture a moment in time and keep it forever fascinated me.

For a long time, being a “photographer” felt like something you had to pursue professionally to take seriously. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized photography doesn’t have to be a profession to be meaningful. For me, it’s therapeutic. It keeps me curious, makes me pay attention, and has become part of my everyday life.

That’s the spirit behind this photo walk. No pressure to create the perfect image. No right or wrong way to shoot. Just bring whatever camera you have, walk the neighborhood, pay attention to what’s around you, and photograph what catches your eye.

Sometimes the best photographs are already there hidden in plain sight.

Fotowalk 10/3 @ 10 am with @fotodays__ meeting at @buenodays.coffee 📸☕️

With the increase in 3rd spaces I created “ISO” in 2024. Not far from home but far enough to step out.

Changing your scenery offers a mental break from the pressures of work & home.

In basketball, ISO stands for ISOLATION, an offensive strategy where teammates clear out to one side of the court so a single player can face their defender in a one-on-one matchup.

ISO provided me the space to focus one-on-one with my next project.

My love for basketball and up cycling became the perfect opportunity to create this space.

My name is Eric, and I love clouds ☁️

I’m excited to announce that we’re back with @fitted_fanatic for another C(LOUD) ☁️ fitted, this time in a classic black with a green UV.

My love for logos, fitted hats, and creating something with meaning all came together to bring this idea to life.
This hat is for the people who choose to go above and beyond the C(LOUDS) to reach their goals. The dreamers. The risk takers. The ones who keep pushing when the destination feels out of reach.

Whether you picked up the first version, missed your chance, or know someone who represents that mindset this hat is for you.

This hat is a reminder to keep your head in the clouds, feet moving forward, and your goals even higher☁️

C(LOUD) 2.0 — New Era 59FIFTY
Black Crown / Green UV

Pre-orders are open now through 8/20.
