San Francisco Magazine Fallfest – Wells Fargo First Class Lounge
Today we shot at the Wells Fargo First Class Lounge at San Francisco Magazine’s FallFest down at Justin Herman Plaza. As usual, once the wine got flowing the green screen photo booth caught on and by the end of the day, people were lined up for their pix. We were superimposing people onto the cover of San Francisco Magazine and people were having a lot of fun with it. The event as a whole was a benefit [...]
Erin and Thad
Erin and Thad were married here in San Francisco today at City Hall. They were such an awesome couple and it was nice to have spent time with my fellow Southerners. They were in town from Kentucky and I not only served as their photographer but also as their witness. After the lunchtime vows, they headed off on Muni to Greens for their first meal as a married couple…
CMO Summit
Today we shot the CMO Summit at the Four Seasons Hotel and there were a lot of great presentations and panelists discussing various trends in marketing and what works and doesn’t work. At the end of the event, Yahoo! sponsored the Big Idea Chair Awards and they gave away these tiny versions of the chair which in this shot make your mobile device look gargantuan…
Baby Savannah…
Well i have wanted to meet her for nine months and she has finally arrived. Baby Savannah Rivers Sullivan. She came into our lives….and she just LOVES the camera. Thank goodness since her favorite aunt (well that’s negotiable) is constantly photographing her!
The Agony of Victory?
In Spain covering the Women’s World Championships this shot struck me as this Romanian athlete showed her true emotions on her placing. While making the top five in her class, you can tell exactly how she felt about it…

Microsoft + Titanic = ???
Last night we shot an event for Microsoft at the Metreon and it took place at the Titanic – The Artifacts Exhibit which is a pretty cool installation. I guess it’s been mega-popular as the stay has been extended until Jan 2007. There are some interesting facts and of course the historic pieces that are part of it give you a great feel for what it must have been like in 1912. I overheard some folks saying [...]
What camera should I buy?
I have to say that one question you get a lot of is “What camera should I buy?” I’ve seen this question posted on numerous message boards as well as our email inboxes time and time again. While we use professional digital SLRs, we don’t generally use the digital point and shoot compact cameras as much so we don’t have as much experience making recommendations in that arena. However, one that I’ve personally used and own is [...]
Assistant’s View
I think one of the cool things about assistants aside from the help and insight they can provide during a shoot is that they get shots of you working. It’s funny to see what you look like while you work and to think about what was going through your mind at a particular point in time. I know I was thinking that I wish I could have been both at the far end of the aisle up [...]
Only in San Francisco
I love when I have a different idea of what a shoot might be like and it surprises me. You try to be prepared but sometimes you have pleasant surprises like when I was walking to my shoot this morning and came across Glenda the Good Witch giving directions to a tourist…
