This is a fun shot that I did that is NOT for commercial use. My sensei is a huge fan of Batman, so I took my shot of his Chuck Norris kick that we did in the Dojo, and then found a non-commercial Batman poster and did some graphic art magic to put him on here. I then found a Batman mask that they sell at costume stores and put it on his face. Once in a while it's fun to see and challenge ourselves a little bit with Photoshop, and this was done strictly for that purpose. Hope you like it!
Never, ever give up...

This image was taken a couple of years ago during a Fantasy Shoot that I did in Maui. As I was preparing my Dreams video I was looking through shots from my past and I remembered that there are a lot of shots I've never even published, and I believe this is one of them. It's always fun to pull out some from your past and after going through my collections I realized I have some fun ones to share. Hope you guys like it!

Wow, tonight was such an amazing experience on my third broadcast where we discussed "How I Made it and You Can Too!" It was such a different format where we were able to see each other, see my desktop, and all hear each other. I'll be posting a re-broadcast later tonight or tomorrow!
Thanks,
Jason
If you already registered for the Live Broadcast Beta Test Tonight at 6pm you have been sent an email with log in information to the event. It was changed because I found out that GoToTraining does not allow video conferencing, only GoToMeeting. This is the first time we've used it which is why we're beta testing and providing these presentations for free while we work out the kinks.
There is no way to pre-register for a GoToMeeting (at least that I've found) so I'm not releasing that information out of respect to those that already did pre-register for the GoToTraining because we are still capped at 25 attendees. If you are interested in joining us we only have a few spots left. You can pre-register at the old link which is provided below:
Pre-Register Link Only: After you have registered you will receive separate information to log into the broadcast via email by me or my team. THE LINK BELOW IS ONLY FOR REGISTRATION!
https://attendee.gototraining.com/r/3206776585318468352
Important: If you've never used GoToMeeting before you need to download their software to be able to be part of the broadcast.
Thanks!

Monday's LIVE Broadcast at 6pm Pacific Time- THERE IS A LIMIT OF 25 PEOPLE!!! If you don't register you will miss the cut. Because it's a trial I have no way to extend it to more than 25 of you, so the early bird gets the worm! This is FREE, so take advantage of it while you can. There will be NO COMMERCIALS in tonight's broadcast. I can't wait to speak with you all tonight!
This image was taken during my photo journey through upstate New York in late August of 2012. It was an amazing trip and I just happened to drive by this while I purposely got lost. When I drive I just go crazy places in between points A and B and tell the GPS to keep me off any express ways, highways, or toll ways...because if you wanna find the really good stuff you're only going to see it on the old roads. It was the perfect time of day to shoot and I thought this whole composition was straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting. Hope you like it!

As many of you may or may not know, Facebook only spreads your posts to 20% or less of your "fans"...meaning at any given time if you have 1,000 fans it's almost a guarantee that only 100-150 of your fans will see your post. I find that pretty disheartening considering that us business owners work hard to publish content and to pay for advertising on Facebook. So to make sure that we have other ways to make sure our work is available to be seen I have created some other accounts for your perusal and they will also all be updated daily:

I'm thinking of adding a Google+ Site but I haven't done too much homework on that just yet...

Meet the Real Mexican Chuck Norris, my awesome Sensei Jose Rodriguez! He really is awesome, and for the record my kids are Mexican so let the record be straight that I LOVE Mexicans. We took this shot yesterday at the Dojo after we had just earned our Yellow Belts. I can't tell you how much my family and I love Jose and all the Sensei's at our Dojo. And if this shot is any indicator, he is truly AWESOME! He's a third degree and if I ever became famous he'd be my personal bodyguard. Thanks for you all do Jose!
