Skate, Educate, Enlighten.

This past Saturday I attended The Good Games here in Las Vegas with Janis (SPACE Studio Project Manager) and Mike a local videographer. We were asked to create a promotional video for The Good Games. The Good Games is an annual event for The Winchester Skate Team, they are an 'at risk' youth skate team that is mentored by Hektor Esparza. They are required to keep a certain GPA, be involved in skating and some form of art to be on the team. Hektor is doing a phenomenal job of working with this group of boys, their futures look so bright, they are all so intelligent and kind. I was able to get one of the boys involved in doing a couple of shots for the video (since I don't do the skate board thing). I was happy and fortunate to be able to be a part of this event! Here are a couple of the portraits I took of the boys.
