La Linea
The line to get into the US from Tijuana on a weekday afternoon. This border crossing (San Ysidro) processes more than a million passenger cars and 600,000 pedestrians each month. It can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 4+ hours to cross back into the US.
The Three Amigos
Grace, Omar, and Christy (plus Rocky in arms) In the spring of 2021, Omar was murdered in Tijuana. Grace left soon after and is now living in California.
Realizing a Dream
This is the same fellow who I shot many years ago with his arms outstretched and two girls dancing right behind him. He was involved in drugs heavily back then but told me he dreamed of returning to his career of being a baker. Turns out, he did! (and yes, the pastries are delicious!)
Hong Kong Summer 2022
This corner was home to a small restaurant but Hong Kong bought it to continue expanding.
Mystery Chica
She was at Azul, the restaurant above Hong Kong, one evening before her shift at HK and wanted me to snap her photo.
Gregg & me, Sept 2021
On Calle Coahulia, the night of El Grito, 2021. Each year for El Grito, Adelita hires one of the zonkeys from Revolution to come stand in front of the bar for photos all night.
Entrance to El Burro
One of the last old school bars left in the alley. Recently I noticed the sign on the front of the building had been blacked out with paint. The bar is still operating as it has been for decades but I fear the end is near.
Erica and Carmen
I've been photographing Carmen since before she could walk. This was in about 2019 or so.
