Van Halen, Sammy Hagar – it must be the holidays
So I just remember seeing something about Van Halen just last week in the Chronicle and then we’re shooting the holiday party for SKYY Spirits and there’s Sammy Hagar. Of course Sammy’s Cabo Wabo was [...]
Ann and Gordon Getty’s Birthday and Holiday party
This shot was taken by Geoff Callan who insisted that there be a shot of the photographer so I grabbed Burning Man founder Larry Harvey so I wouldn't be solo. I hadn't seen Larry at [...]
Eat, Drink, Be Merry!
So we had a rare evening off and took the studio out to dinner and drinks last night. We had a solid dinner at the Oak Room at the Westin St. Francis and then went [...]
49ers vs. Vikings
Maurice Hicks gains some yardage during San Francisco’s 27-7 loss to the Minnesota Vikings at Monster Park on Sunday Dec. 9th, 2007. We were on hand to shoot the game as we also photographed the opening ceremony for Standard Pacific’s awarding of scholarships to three students on the field. Unfortunately the 49ers weren’t able to pull out a victory for the home team though.
Green Screen Photography for Holiday Parties
Green screen photography is a really popular type of event photography that we do here at Orange. During the holiday season, many of our clients ask for green screen photography which entails shooting against a [...]

Tony Award winner Duncan Sheik
Tony Award winner Duncan Sheik was in town for ACT’s Producers Circle dinner tonight. I was fortunate enough to have seen Spring Awakening on Broadway with my sister earlier this year so it was nice to see the man behind the music. Of course having grown up in the 80s I also recall him from his big hit back then. He still looks pretty young but then I guess I hope I don’t look too old too!

Bay Bridge moonrise
Today was spent checking out art at various galleries, including a trip to 49 Geary specifically to check out the Edward Burtynsky Quarries prints at Robert Koch gallery. If I was wealthier I would have picked one up as a gift and got some of my holiday shopping done but instead I didn’t buy anything today. The new Crouching Spider by Louise Bourgeois on the Embarcadero was another stop and it’s a nice piece, although I wish [...]
Christian Lacroix Fashion Show
We don’t shoot that many fashion runaway gigs but the chronicle asked us to cover Christian Lacroix’s new line up last Friday. Although it should be like shooting fish in a barrel, with the constant light changes, i found myself challenged to capture every dress that came down the runaway. I tend to shoot in Manual mode for most of my indoor work but i found that this mode burnt me few times during this shoot!
