A Blade Runner Inspired Portraiture

Recently had to chance to collaborate again with Jose J. Palos on another themed shoot. This time around we were working at the basement of the The Rhythm Room. 


The Rhythm Room name was inspired by a turn of the century underground Jazz speakeasy located in what is still today, the heart of DTLA. A true gem, Rhythm Room provided an intimate, private and warm social space where patrons enjoyed stiff cocktails, live music, and the occasional ballroom dancing. 

The revival of Rhythm Room at the Hotel Hayward channels the same spirit from the 1940's, simply a great local joint with live jazz and activities, where friends can congregate, laugh, and catch up over light bites and a drink or two. 

Here is a quick video when we first scouted the place.
