We did a night shoot in Down Town Los Angeles.
We did it because it was the last night for Filip Grossard in LA.
During his road trip through California he met some guys, who wanted to show us some good spots in LA to take some nice pictures.
AND INDEED, they knew where to go!!
Here’s the result:
Immediately after work we went to Down Town LA, so we could still see the sunset.
But because of the LA traffic, we couldn’t see much of the sunset anymore.
So we had to take all the pictures at “nightlight”.
Because we had to wait for the friends of Filip to arrive, we searched something to eat.
And like always, we couldn’t decide, so we used Yelp to pick our restaurant.
This was the location Yelp Advised :D.
The food wasn’t bad, but the accommodation itself was a little weird, especially the hyper active waitress.
She was jumping around when we ordered, and used A LOT of hand expressions to explain all the kinds of dishes.
After dinner, we went to the US Bank tower, because we agreed on meeting the other guys there.
Because we had to wait for several hours, we played with our camera settings, took some pictures
had some recaps about some great nights and laughed a lot.
Then the friends of Filip arrived.
Really nice guys and they advised us, to climb onto the roof of the Millennium Biltmore hotel.
Because it was a nice old hotel, it was still possible to use the fire stairs to get onto the roof of the hotel.
Once arrived on the roof, the views were breathtaking!!!
You where still between some other skyscrapers but high in the sky :).
To give you an impression, where we took pictures, I added a photo from Google Earth.
Here are some of the pictures, I took on the roof.
Running and climbing ladders.
Trying not to get caught, on the security camera’s.
If we just went to that bar to take some pictures, it would saved us from some crazy stunts.
But still, this was more exiting because it had the feeling of an adventure.
Getting in the hotel, getting to the top floor, take fire stairs, climbs ladders, not get caught on the security camera’s and so on.
After everybody, was satisfied with the pictures they made, we went to a bridge located over the highway.
After those pictures, we called it a night and drove back to Marina Del Rey.
