young Barack and Michelle
I thought this was a sweet photo. Unfortunately, I don’t have a photo credit. Any guesses as to the date? I love their natural pose and the details of the decor.

If you haven’t seen Obama’s People, Nadav Kander’s portrait series of Obama’s administration, posted online on the New York Times website, it’s worth checking out. Most everyone photographed looks a bit awkward, but I think that is the […]

A Five Star Afternoon wedding fair wrap up!

2017-07-24T20:46:25-07:00By |Categories: Point of View|Tags: , , |

Yesterday we participated in the Four Seasons’ wedding fair called “A Five Star Afternoon.”  We’ve been doing this show regularly and it’s always nice to see fellow industry folks and see what everyone’s been up to.  Doing a wedding fair is something that’s good for keeping your brand out there, growing your network, and finding new or potential partners.  Of course the primary goal is also to show your work to prospective couples and to earn […]

Mayor Gavin Newsom at the Rotunda at Neiman Marcus

So we haven’t updated our blog as much this year since we’ve been incredibly busy.  This of course is a good thing considering the economy.  Traditionally for our studio the first quarter is often the slowest as wedding season has not kicked in and corporate and commercial work ramps up […]

SF Camerawork Opening

Last night I checked out the opening for”United in Nima: Bay Area and Ghanaian Youth Share Lives Through the Lens” at SF Camerawork.  I do some mentoring in First Exposures so this opening had a personal connection and it was amazing to see the work the mentees did while in Ghana.  The show is up at Camerawork until March […]
