PHOTOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHERI'm Raymond Planas. "Every picture tells a story." I enjoy photography as a way to write new stories and as a motivation to see the beauty around me as I try to capture it in images/videos. I enjoy sports (football, 49ers, LAFC, Lakers, UNLV basketball), movies (action, sports, comedy), and hiking, among other things.
Why "Purposed Backgrounds"? It's a two-fold story. The first part is the literal meaning: the foreground/subject is the focus of a photo, but the background matters, because we are trying to tell someone's story. And the environment they're in is a part of that whole story. The second part is a more personal, figurative meaning. I believe that I have a purpose: that through my relationship with Christ, I can glorify God - that I am the imperfect background to His love and grace. That because God loves me and forgave me, I am empowered to extend that love and forgiveness to others. (1 John 4:19) |
PHOTOGRAPHERHello. My name is Jess Mijares. I am a firm believer and a follower of Jesus Christ and I am a photographer.
Photography has always been a passion of mine ever since I was a child. I remember picking up a camera for the first time sometime around the age of five and taking a good picture out of it. From then on, I always had thoughts and images in my head of how things would look like. But it was different then. Point and shoot film photography is different. But my take away from that is how to compose an image before actually taking it. It made me look at things in a different perspective. Currently I do have a food Instagram blog; I also do photography for the church every Sunday. Of course my main goal is to develop the skills that I have and use it to help the world be a better place, in my own little way. Part of my passion is food and it includes taking good pictures of it. At the same time helping out restaurants beyond the Las Vegas trip by promoting them and letting people know that there is a gastronomical experience beyond the Las Vegas strip. |
