I shared this image for the first time on July 7th, 2015. At the time when I created it I guess it just felt right because as you can see, I knew one of them would land as the cover design for my first zine. However what I didn’t know that it would serve as the template for my “Simple Things” zine series. I’ve been speaking a lot lately about volume 4 being my final zine from the series, and I’m always asked why - well this is my reference, I had unintentionally set a bar to reach for myself; plus 4 just feels complete. Though I haven’t quite decided my subject matter, I have a feeling that this volume will be special and the catalyst to future projects. ———————————————————————— I need y’all help…if Volume 1 is “Life As I Know It”, Volume 2 is “Life As I See It”, and Volume 3 is “Life As I Make It” - what should Volume 4 be “Life As_____________”? ———————————————————————— simplethings #simplethingsthezine #simplethingsmerch #lifestyle #mylife #thejourney #lorenzodigginsjr #showyourwork #specialprojects #zine #momentofreflection #momentofgratitude #speakintoexistence #smallvictoriesdoaddup #selfpublished #smallpress #poweredbycbc #colourbloccreativ #cbcpress

This past weekend I had the opportunity to celebrate the beautiful union of my good friend @genesisdianeperez to her husband Edgar...I’m extremely happy for you Gen! May God continue to bless you both as you start this new chapter together . 👰🏽🤵🏻 ———————————————————————— #TenThirteen #mylife #thejourney #lorenzodigginsjr #momentofreflection #momentofgratitude #makeportraits #vscocam #goodvibesonly #smileoften
It feels really good to say that volume 2 from my @thesimplethingsproject zine series is 3 zines away from selling out for the second time. Which means nearly 300 copies have sold (I’ve sold 297)! With that being said, if you’ve been considering getting a copy...I highly suggest you do it now because after these last copies sell, I’m not sure when I’ll be producing more. My 4th and final volume will be releasing this Christmas though ✨🙏🏾 ———————————————————————— Simple Things - The Zine: Volume 2 / Life As I See It - Volume 2 is an ode to my hometown, South Los Angeles. After noticing the big changes that are happening throughout the city and realizing how it will inevitably effect the landscape of the community; with this zine I used photography as my medium to capture a small time capsule in an attempt to preserve the essence before it’s gone. #linkinbio ———————————————————————— #LifeAsISeeItbyLCD #simplethings #simplethingsthezine #simplethingsmerch #lifestyle #mylife #thejourney #lorenzodigginsjr #showyourwork #specialprojects #documentaryphotography #photographyzine #photojournalism #momentofreflection #momentofgratitude #putonforthecity #smallvictoriesdoaddup #selfpublished #smallpress #poweredbycbc #colourbloccreativ #cbcpress
I’m launching a print publication next year (July) and it’s going to be beautiful. You saw it here first.

Everyone isn’t fortunate enough to have a village and for that very reason I am thankful of mine for always being there. Literally no matter the occasion my support system has shown up in some capacity throughout the years; for example this #tbt pic (circa 2000) - this wasn’t even like a championship game but my whole squad was in the bleachers cheering me on as if it were. “Ref you better call the right call or else....🤷🏾‍♂️” *stares off into the stands* 😂🤣 ———————————————————————— #mylife #thejourney #lorenzodigginsjr #momentofreflection #momentofgratitude #makeportraits #goodvibesonly #smileoften #familyportrait #ittakesavillage

I aspire to be a big art book publishing house like #Phaidon, #Assouline, #Taschen, etc...and though that seems so far from now, I do SEE it as a possibility which means it can actually happen. I consider this stage of my journey the “brick laying” stage where I’m essentially laying my foundation. I’m in no rush - this house will be strong. Remember, thoughts become things. #smallvictoriesdoaddup ———————————————————————— #oneframebylcd #TheSimpleThingsProject #The21DayProjectbyLCD #mylife #thejourney #lorenzodigginsjr #showyourwork #specialprojects #passionprojects #momentofreflection #momentofgratitude #makeportraits #goodvibesonly #speakitintoexistence #zine #illustrationzine #photographyzine #selfpublished #smallpress #poweredbycbc #colourbloccreativ #cbcpress
