    I really enjoyed the event. I like how the challenges allowed me to focus on some things I generally don't consider.

    PHOTOGRAPHERS
    Brian Rivera
    I'm Brian Rivera aka Mista Play Boy (Hip Hop Artist) born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas. I've been recording music since I was 14 years old and quickly knew that I would need artwork for my music releases, but didn't have the money to hire anybody at such a young age. I figured out how album covers were made when my algebra teacher told me it was done by using a program called "photoshop" which he used because he did photography when not teaching. I later discovered Photoshop later that day in my high school print shop and quickly downloaded a bootleg copy when I got home. I would take my own pictures on a small digital camera and just try to mimic what I saw from albums I would by. This showed me how layers were used to create designs in Photoshop. I quickly started making my cover art and as I got older started to design for other local artist and places of business for events. When I got into my 20's I saved up enough money to buy my first Nikon and started to learn the fundamentals of photography. At the same time I was learning how to shoot videos to later create music videos for myself. As always, I later found myself doing for others as well. I've since then worked and designed for not only locals in my city, state, but also for high profile artist as well across the United States. I've created viral memes that have been featured on TMZ, Complex Magazine, and so much more. I'm best known for photo manipulation besides being creative and thinking outside of the box. I love creating, and when I'm not creating music. I'm creating in other ways that still relate to music and other passions of mine like photography and film.

    Brian Rivera is available for private bookings

    Available for graphic design, photography, and video services for content across all social media platforms. This would include photoshoots, event reels, artwork related to flyers, logos and much more.

    We took a trip to a rookery via boat. The birds were so busy building nests that they did not even notice us drifting off in the distance. This photo was taken from a boat during my 2024 whooping crane workshop.

    This is the best way to capture sunrises in Corpus Christi. On this day, the sun was barely peaking through the clouds and offered great shadow and hue to the photo. The waves were silent and the water left by the tide gave a great reflection.

    Title or Location: How Bridge Cemetery
    I heard there was a flock of Bohemian waxwing (Bombycilla garrulus) at Howbridge Cemetery Atherton. Being a cemetery setting respect and care was taken using long lens from footpath. This bird is extremely photogenic and looks like a painting, the feathers are so fine the photos of them appear to be over edited but all I do is maybe crop and lightning.I always shoot in Raw info here Canon 7D 400mm f5.6 1/250, ISO500

    Title or Location: Home Yard
    I setup bird feeders at home including a hummingbird feeder. They are super active and are use to me being close to them so I grabbed my Canon R5 with my Canon 70-200mm f2.8 lens and placed myself within 8 feet from the feeder rendering great closeup shots while they feed and the late afternoon sun gives this Rufous hummingbird that beautiful glow
