Since I had a weekend off from wedding photography in Miami, I did some shooting for the coolest sporting event of the month, 2011 Nascar Sprint Cup Championship!!
I saw a couple of old friends from AP and it brought back great memories.
A HUGE thank you to my friend from Nascar, "E" you're the best!!!!
My good friend Rich and I were all over the place shooting but, the weather was not the very best. Wedding photographers would have loved the lighting we had mostly cloudy with very little sun.
Here are some shots from the day enjoy... Goodtimes
Taking a little break from "Miami wedding photography" my full time job!
So I had the pleasure and Honor to work on "The" original Carlos Gracie Sr. photo which is in almost every Jiu-Jitsu academy around the World!
The wife of Rilion Gracie, Chris Gracie asked me a while back if I can fix and touch up the original photo of Carlos Gracie Sr. Rilion Gracie's father but yet keep it clean with the original look, I said I would be honored!!

Below is one of many shots I took of Rilion Gracie son of Carlos Gracie Sr. at my studio a couple of weeks ago..Rilion Gracie is known for having one of if not the best "Guard" in the world yet I am learning from the most down to earth person in the world...

Great job, Ray! Carlos Sr. photo is way better now. And Rilion's pic is sick!
