Hey! My name is Emiliano Solorio! I’m a college student, musician, Lego masterbuilder, and photographer with an emphasis on vintage film looks! As a dedicated musician myself, I have a deep appreciation for local music scenes and try to snap as many pics as I can at every gig and concert I attend/play! I’m going to school for nursing, and hope to be an RN or maybe a doctor someday! I’m also the lead singer/guitarist in the band WhoseHouseIsThis? , and grew up enamored by the psychedelic sounds of the 60’s and 70’s. The fashion and filmic looks of media from that time is a heavy influence on my own style, musicianship, and photography!

So why “Kip”?

When I was about 8 years old, a little game called ‘Minecraft’ was starting to gain some serious popularity with everyone at school. I was never allowed to own any game consoles, but I wanted to fit in, so I just made up a fake username called “The_Kipinator”, knowing full well if anyone actually tried to look it up, it didn’t even exist. Over the years I just ended up using the username '‘The Kipinator” and the name “Kip” for everything online, and it just stuck. Pretty underwhelming story, huh? Maybe because it’s just the truth… but who would know? It could be a dumb lie. But I wouldn’t do that, right?
