Recently traveled down to Southern California for the Beers & Camera x The Darkroom Photography Meetup in Joshua Tree National Park. It was an awesome event and I was able to meet a ton of quality people and photographers. This video recaps the meetup and some other experiences I had while in LA. Enjoy!

Looks like you had a glorious time out there man! Coolest part of the video for me was the mad variety of cars there were at that show haha, literally all ends of the spectrum popping up made it seem like everyone was really just there for the love of cars in general as opposed to trying to flex like things can seem at some car shows. Those little vans were my favorite, they look so sick haha! You got some lovely images too!

It's great to see you back firing on all cylinders and having the opportunity to go on cool meetups like these. I especially liked the shots of the cars & coffee meet like the pink Mazda and the Retro Lady. Also nice to see you filming 16mm again. Looking forward to your next videos.

Thanks for sharing these nice moments with us Brae! So many cameos, I was happy to see all these people together, Mat Marrash, the homeless man, Linus and so on. Also it was kinda funny because most people seemed to have just one camera and you had this huge backpack with all this gear! It reminded me of myself, I always have this heavy backpack full of gear and in a way I'm kind of fed up with it and yet I wouldn't do it any other way! And dude that 105.....
