About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Becky Gold (aka FoTo GirL) and I began my company, OC Foto, a few years ago in order to follow my dreams and passion. Ever since I was a kid I've always loved the concept of photography. To capture moments in time that would last a lifetime has always amazed and intrigued me. I have taken numerous photography classes from high school through college but I believe you can NEVER learn all there is regarding photography concepts and ideas. Therefore I am currently enrolled in a digital imaging/graphic arts class.
Another major passion of mine has always been music. I love the music industry and all types of music ranging from the mellow, relaxing sounds of Enya and Jack Johnson to the hard, metal tones of Pantera and Slayer.........and everything in between. There is a different feel to each type of music and I try to capture that feeling through my photographs.
Residing in Southern California gives me the opportunity to meet many interesting people and attend numerous events of all types.
I love all types of photography and would love to work with you on any venture you may need help with. My price list for photo shoots may be found on the link provided for my website. Please view samples of my work and hopefully you will develop a feel for each moment captured in time as I have.
OC Foto for photos that ROCK!!!!

My Interests

MUSIC promotions, band photos (live & group), concerts, parties, weddings, family portraits, head shots, glamour photography, flyers, press kits, etc.......You name it, I'll shoot it or make it happen!

I'd like to meet:

Bands, Musicians, Models, Actors, Writers, Producers, Club Owners, Promoters, etc. looking for quality photos or promotional needs at an affordable price. Working together can only make things better! Plus I'm always looking to meet and share ideas with creative, self-motivated people as myself!
I also do band booking for Fitzgeralds Pub in Huntington Beach, CA. If you're interested in doing a show please ask for details. The current shows scheduled are listed in a blog on my other profile "Becky Gold aka FoTo GirL".
You can also check us out on the web at www.OCFOTO.com .......click here. While I have no problem posting flyers and band bulletins....if you post a comment about a new cell phone, or a link to some cheesy porn site, or penis enlargement ads or any of that other BS it will be deleted..... I support the music and entertainment industry.......get it? got it? GOOD!

Music:

All kinds of music..........you name it, I love it. Music is a way of life and each type has a personality. Whether it be rock, rap, punk, hip hop, metal, etc...they all have qualities to capture in photos. My job is to get that unique photo that you don't see everyday........ Variety is the spice of life baby...........all types from Pantera to Enya. Normally my radio is set at 106.7, 102.7 or 105.9. Rock, metal, hip-hop, punk, rap, alternative, etc......they all have a place in my life. Unwritten Law, NIN, Static X, Slayer, Linkin Park, Disturbed, Sublime, Pennywise, Papa Roach, Limp Bizkit, Eminem, Iron Maiden, Nelly, Usher, Beastie Boys, are a few of my favorites...............and don't forget the local bands like Thrill Deluxe, Switchback, Flatline, Hard Head, Sick Life, The Bombshells, Annew, Marijayne, OPM, Chemical Burn, Flap Jax, StinkEye, Lifeline, Dyer, Quota, Device, Simple Thoughts, Commonwealth, Hit Skwad, Core 10, Belikose, Omenus, Innercell, Chasom, Ioma, Six, Looney Binn, The Heathens, Supe, Outlett, Neverwonder, Soul Damage, Vindakits, Avava, 1AD7, Intentional Rage, Satur 9, Anna's Brother, Ooze and many more talented people that I've worked with....... OC Foto loves the music industry!
