It’s been a minute since I’ve posted about photography, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been busy shooting. I’ve been doing a lot of corporate work as of late. Taking pictures for businesses that want to enhance their brand. One of my latest projects was for an old friend of mine Mark Vanyo the owner of Vanyo Martial Arts.
I met Mark at the gym back in 2006. Right around that time I saw the movie Ong Bak and wanted to start training Muay Thai immediately. It’s kind of strange to think that I wanted to train a martial art that I figured nobody in my neighborhood would be teaching but alas there was Master Vanyo. We quickly bonded over the love of weightlifting, martial arts, and 80’s action movies. He’s one of the few people I know on the planet that can also quote movies like The Barbarians.
