Understanding the Heart Behind "Style My Code": A Journey Rooted in Place and Pride

As a Southern California photographer, I’ve had the unique opportunity to meet people from 
all walks of life. From the bustling valleys to the tranquil deserts, the energetic cities to the 
serene mountains, one thing stands out—pride. Pride in where people come from. Pride in their 
roots. Whether it's the Inland Empire, Los Angeles, or any other corner of Southern California, 
people wear their origins like a badge of honor. This pride is the heartbeat behind my clothing 
line, Style My Code. 
The Heart of Southern California: A Place Like No Other 
Southern California isn’t just a place—it’s an identity. The diversity across this region is 
something that can’t be matched. After years of photographing individuals, families, and 
businesses from across Southern California, one thing has always struck me: people are proud 
of where they come from. 
Take the Inland Empire (909), for example. When someone says they’re from the 909, it’s more 
than just an area code—it’s a declaration of their roots. People from Los Angeles are no 
different. Whether you're from the Westside, Eastside, or Southside, there’s an unwavering 
pride in your area code. This pride is alive and present in the culture, fashion, music, and even 
in casual conversation. 
At Style My Code, I’ve always believed that this sense of belonging, this deep-rooted pride, 
should be reflected in your visual identity. No matter where you come from in Southern 
California, your story is unique—and that’s what I aim to capture. 
Let’s show pride from the area you come from and respect the code and show the world who 
you really are. Wear your area code proudly!!
