In Hollywood there is a saying… never work with children or animals… but I love kids and clearly they love me… I promise great shots were had eventually! In truth, we take what they give us and it is usually the honest pictures that are cherished.
The Pandemic Generation
Apparently 9-12 months ago quite a lot of people got busy making more people.
Jury Dury
I did my civic duty. It was long and tedious. I spent the many breaks we got taking pictures with my iPhone 11. Here are the images…
Lila Heller
Rare plug here… https://www.lilaheller.com/ Truly amazing what she can do with the mind and body. Worked out a pretty sweet business deal to make sure that there is plenty more to come! Can you say retreats?
Insta Models
Hired by an Instagram account (that I won’t name) to help them build up ‘inventory’. Ah… Insta… you fickle beast. You want a never ending photo roll that is measured in likes and comments… these ladies are working hard for those followers and I am doing my best to help.
In the world of Dior, real men wear purses
I don’t wear a purse myself but after spending an afternoon with this model from Paris I am sure that if I did, this handy ode to the lunch box accessory from Dior would be my go to choice!
African Art
My father has many hobbies and interest but one was collecting museum quality African art and antiquities. He asked me to photograph these pieces to be auctioned in Paris.
Wyclef Jean
Sometimes you get an assignment and think to yourself “Really? You want me to take a last minute assignment to shoot Wyclef in concert? All access including stage and green room? Snoop is opening? AND you are paying me how much!!!???” And then you try act like you do this all the time…
Bernie wins California!
Yes I am a huge Bernie fan so it was without hesitation that I took this assignment to cover one of his last rallies before the California Primary. It was electric and inspiring.
Traditional home blessing
Ceremonies and rituals are fascination to photograph because as the moments unfold we become both participant and professional voyeur. This event was the blessing of a new home following a traditional Indian wedding.
Hunky Jesus
Is it April Fool’s day or just another Easter in San Francisco…. All I can say is JESUS! Hunky Jesus that is. Thanks to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for a yearly event that is very much part of what makes San Francisco such a fun place to live.
Beauty Heroes
In what was the famous (infamous) Plant Recording Studio in Sausalito, Beauty Heroes held a Master Class on sustainable cosmetics and beauty treatments. Workshops and samples and sound therapy and yoga oh my!
