Sessions with KAFANI

As of recently I've been collaborating with Kafani "Da Ice King" on a few things.

Cover Feature for this month's issue of OZONE magazine

Kafani liked the design of ishooteverything.com so I created KAFANI.COM feat my photos.

Last but not least my photographs were used for a van wrap during his recent road tour.

Super Big ups! & Thanks to Kafani for repping the "I Shoot People" T-shirt.
thanx to JB @ Ozone mag for sparking the connection.
Stay tuned we got a couple more collaborations in the works.

Peace
