One of our photographers, Court Leve, captured this striking image of green and blue lasers projecting out from the iconic Transamerica building and Lenovo sign over the San Francisco Bay at night. It was such a cool image, we wanted to share it with you.
I am privy to a lot of fantastic city views as someone who gets to shoot in a variety of venues. And what a beautiful city we live in! I’m so lucky to live here. These night exposures were taken on some recent shoots. Some exposures are as long as 30 seconds, so obviously a tripod or flat balcony railing (hang on tight to your camera!) come in handy. In a […]
Here are a few outtakes from the shoot for our eighth anniversary party invite. We used a digital SLR on a tripod, set exposure about 30 seconds on self-timer and used an array of light painting tools (lighter, flashlight, flashing bike light).

So I’m going to be doing a night shoot incorporating the moon into a portrait so last night I did a few test shots. The moon is about 85% full right now and it’s really bright up there since we’ve had some nicely clear nights here in San Francisco. This was one of the quick shots I took which was totally hand held since the moon reflects so much light. I was surprised that I could shoot […]
