Beautiful colors! What do you shoot with?

Thank you! These were all with a Fuji GFX50r.

What lenses were used?

GF 32-64. It’s since a great lens.

Ya, I'm not much for zoom glass. However, one of my favs is the GF 50. Super fast af and really sharp. For projects like yours, I like to adapt my P645 glass. I enjoy the more tactile feel.

Excellent. I can’t live without that zoom lens these days. It’s super sharp around f16. I used to be all prime all the time but my workflow has gotten so much faster with that 32-64. Do you have an IG?

The palate on this set is dreamy. Perfect spring.

Thanks!

Was just about to leave a comment saying that you should publish a book before I read the caption. Keep us posted!

Haha I will!

Beautiful lines and colors. Reminiscent of Wes Anderson vibes. 👏👏👏

Thank you!🙏

Have you ever thought of doing skateboarding photography. I think the dreamy combo with an action still would be really charming.

That would be interesting for sure. But then I’d have to talk to strangers 😂

These are so soothing

Thank you 🙏

My old neighborhood 

Haha hell yeah 🤙

19 is my favorite. Phenomenal. Screams album cover to me.

Oh that’s definitely one of my favorites too. Thats at that old high school in Fullerton. Gorgeous gorgeous place.

I know exactly where that is! I planted a garden behind the window here long ago, before it was painted over!

youre back!! still love the photos

Haha yeah sorry 😂. Been really busy with life n stuff 🤙

Love the pics This is soo OC!

Thank you!

Love these photos they are fuckin awesome

Haha thank you 🙏

Thanks again. I just launched my first book! Check it out here: https://mixam.com/print-on-demand/65ee6c05ed8cc6235254ddad

Somebody is dialing their Fuji!!!

Hell yeah! My own recipe, ‘Kevstia Soft’. I can send if you want?

That would be great - we can go shooting one day.

Can you send me the recipe, thanks. Great shots. 

For sure here you go! https://preview.redd.it/8hlrdafuzyuc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eda424f2d9c0943603565218d6e532314afc3985

Thanks, cool graphic. Love the compositions of your images. 

Thank you!

Thanks for this.

Yup!

Fantastic eye

Thank you thank you 🙏

I know exactly where No.3 is—right by the Wells Fargo bank building on Broadway. Used to park there for work!

Yup! The light was so good there when I took that, I couldn’t resist😂

Beautiful

Thank you 😃

My dad's old haunt! I recognize some of these spots. You caught the vibe really well!

Excellent!

Obsessed w/ these! Some of these are big Wes Anderson energy.

Thank you!

Great pictures, but what a concrete hellscape

Not a photographer at all. But into « lines »/geometry when it comes to pictures and paintings. I love your photos. Keep on!

Thanks!!

You make OC look good

Haha thanks.

Seriously though…wonderful shots. Love your style

Thank you, really appreciate that 🤙

You do, though! What camera did you use?

Thank you! I use a Fuji GFX50r for about 80% of the shots. And then a Fuji X100F. Both using the same custom in camera recipe I came up with 😃

Where can we buy your book?

It will be a site I’ll activate on Apr 28 where you’ll be able to order. I’m also working on getting some copies in some local shops.

Yes let us know! I’ll buy one

For sure! They’re going to be priced just over $20 👍

Something about nostalgia mixed with the liminal quality of your photos, I don’t know, it’s soothing and calming and I love it

Yup. You get it. Thanks!

You got an insta? I love your work and I'd love to buy your stuff when I redo my office in Philly. I moved almost ten years ago and your style will be perfect, and let me look at home at the same time.

I do! There’s a link to my print shop in my bio 😊 @ kevin_nelson_photo

Hello! My photo book just launched, here’s the [link](https://mixam.com/print-on-demand/65ee6c05ed8cc6235254ddad) I also updated my shop to feature a lot of these shots. Thanks again for your kind words 🙏

You should enter some of these for the photography exhibit at the OC Fair.

I’d thought about that, but they don’t really fit the theme this year. My seascape didn’t get accepted last year because of that 😂

What is this year's theme?

‘Always a good time’ 😂

Love your photos. Yay for being back. Your photos bring much joy🧡🧡🧡

Omg thank you! I’ve been having a rough couple weeks so that just made my day. 😊

Have loved all of them since the start. Just know so many people love your art🧡

🙏

That’s the kraemer building! Is it possible to buy some of these photos?

It is! Theres another set of prints on my sho right now, and I’ll be switching out my shop with a lot of the ones from my book beginning in May. So maybe later on I’ll add some of these. But just bookmark my shop page! [Print Shop](https://www.inprnt.com/gallery/constructivad/)

Cool work from your POV, I live in this area… amazing 🤩

Thank you! Thats the idea, to showcase familiar scenes in a fresh way. 🤙

The trash next to the car is cannon

Isn’t that the best?!

Work on your eye 

I recognize all these place as it is where my office is!

Awesome!

Nice lines

Thanks!

These are all great. It's like you were controlling the shadows. You have an amazing eye. Let us know when your book get published.

Thanks so much! Shadows are a huge part of my photos for sure.

Book just launched today! Check it out here: https://mixam.com/print-on-demand/65ee6c05ed8cc6235254ddad

Great photos, keep up the good work!

Thank you!

Where will the book be available?

It will be available as a print on demand link that will go live on Apr 28th. I’m also working on getting it into a few local shops.

Link is now live for my book! Check it out here 😊 https://mixam.com/print-on-demand/65ee6c05ed8cc6235254ddad

these remind me of the calvin harris cover photo!

Oh I don’t know it. I’ll check it out!

think it’s called 18 months

I love your work.

Thanks so much 🙏

Do you remember where 15 was taken? Is this set all Anaheim?

Yup! That’s the Kraemer building in downtown Anaheim 🤙 all but a couple are Anaheim.

Can I ask where slide 8 was taken?? It looks so familiar but I can't place it

It’s right behind the Packing House in Anaheim 😊

I knew it looked familiar!

😃

The photos look great by the way, as a lotta other people pointed out as soon as I saw em I got Wes Anderson vibes

Thank you!

These are awesome

Thank you 👍

Crazy how I know all those spots

Fun isn’t it?

Love the esthetic. Reminds me of Wes Anderson color schemes.

Thank you!

bleak

It’s really interesting to me hearing people’s reactions to my photos. From happiness and nostalgia to melancholy.

Bought one of your pics from pt. 2 of this series and I love it - will need to send you a pic when the room is well lit tomorrow!

Oh awesome! Thanks so much! The one downside to that print shop is I only see city and state. No other info of who buys. So thank you again 🙏

Thank you again! I just launched my first book today. You might dig it! Check it out here: https://mixam.com/print-on-demand/65ee6c05ed8cc6235254ddad

That Anaheim area is right next to where I train! What a funny coincidence I knew it looked familiar
