First wedding of the year!

2017-07-24T20:46:26-07:00By |Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: , |

So Alician & John got married on New Years Day and we were at a chilly City Hall here in San Francisco.  Although it was cold outside, Alicia braved the elements and we had a good time running around town getting shots in various locations that had sentimental value to them.  This was one shot I liked personally from early in the afternoon…

Happy New Year!

Wow, what a year 2008 was.  We were busy growing Orange and got to see and photograph such a variety of events, celebrations, parties and more.  Our very last shoot of the year was, appropriately, a New Years Eve bash and this was one of the shots from the last few seconds of 2008.  We’re looking forward to another great year in […]

Venue shots

One of the great things about shooting glitzy holiday parties (besides awesome catered food leftovers…) is having access to interesting venues. My favorites are the really old ones with original interior details. Apparently the Regency Center, built at the turn of the century, used to be a Mason lodge. You can see the Lodge level is well maintained with stained glass, red velvet wallpaper, and the carved dark beams. The City Club of SF has patterned copper […]

San Francisco from Treasure Island - Holiday 2008

A quick shot of San Francisco’s Holiday skyline from Treasure Island.  I didn’t even realize Coit Tower was red until I zoomed in while compositing this panoramic shot.  Our city is always so beautiful and especially so during the holidays. (Note: you can purchase this shot online) […]

Career Day @ Thurgood Marshall

2017-07-24T20:46:28-07:00By |Categories: Giving Back, Point of View|Tags: , , , |

So we participated in Career Day at Thurgood Marshall Academic High School here in San Francisco last week and it was a lot of fun.  Although students seemed pretty apathetic, it was cool that they were honest like the time I asked them if our group was less or more boring than the previous group and one girl blurted out “more”.

Here’s a few shots they took as I passed the camera around and explained what we […]

Civil Rights and the Asian Law Caucus

2017-07-24T20:46:28-07:00By |Categories: Event, Point of View|Tags: , , , |

Being half-Japanese, but 100% American, I’ve always been fascinated about the Japanese internment during World War II.  Since I grew up away from the West I didn’t really know anyone who was interned until I moved out to California.  Well, we were hired to shoot the opening of the new Asian Law Caucus building at the edge of North Beach & Chinatown and the daughter of Fred Korematsu who was the Japanese-American who sued the US […]

Torey & Khalid

2008-12-11T13:05:29-08:00By |Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: , , , |

Some people are so photogenic it just ain’t fair. Torey and Khalid are two such people. You may recognize them from some of the Engagement photos. Their beautiful ceremony took place in a Redwood clearing in Woodside, California and the sunlight filtering through the trees was so perfect for some shots it’ll just make you tingle.
