So I just got this today from a guy who used to shoot for us checking in with him on his availability…
Sorry man, I’ve moved back to New York and am working for Men’s Health magazine.
And — odd story here — there’s a place where we go for lunch on Fridays and they have the usual autographed celeb photos on the wall, and one is of this bodybuilder chick up in a tree in a bikini. Right […]
This must be headshot and portrait season as we’ve had quite a lot of headshots coming through the studio. Today we were shooting for Virgin America airlines and overall the studio has been buzzing lately. This is how the shoot looked like from my desk as I sorted through to make edits and selects from my shoots over the weekend in LA.
Well as it always seems in the US, the holidays are upon us earlier and earlier. We’ve sent out our holiday promotional emails to our customers and they seem to be a hit.
We also found the perfect gift for the studio so if anyone wants to get this for us, we’ll throw in a free studio portrait shoot for this Guinness Kegerator (as well as free […]
The suite we’re staying in at the Hyatt Regency here in Atlanta, GA has a nice window that I decided to leverage for my first shoot in the morning which started at 5:00am PT. This was taken by Hans Klein who was sitting in on the shoot while James Cook was assisting. Personally I ended up liking this making of shot more than the actual photo.
Taura shot the 7×7 Magazine Bring on the Night party at Bambuddha on Tuesday night and it knocked a few of the Orange team outta commission. Here’s a few photos from the festivities.
I have always liked the Canon logo as far as a brand goes and even remember drawing it on gutters in my notebooks. Since we’ve largely standardized on Canon gear, I was looking up some info on the parent company and found some interesting info out on the origins of their brand. Who knew that it started out as Kwanon, the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy?
This is the Daruma that my parents gave to me for the business. I didn’t really know what the meaning/story was behind it so my Dad explained it to me. Here’s the details… “The gift we gave you for celebration of the new phase of your business is a traditional Japanese figurine of the great Buddhist monk called Daruma. He is the founder of Zen Buddhism. He was born in southern India. His Buddhist name is Bodhidharma. [...]
One of the great things about our jobs is the various ways we get to see what goes on in San Francisco, but sometimes just looking at the physical city itself is a pleasure. Here’s a couple shots I took from the last seven days or so…
So my friend Jen Chehardy was visiting along with her roomate so I decided to take them to the Mission and after lunch at Pancho Villa we walked down Valencia and eventually made it up to the roof at Medjool. Once we were there we were greeted with a spectacular view of San Francisco, and a plume of black smoke from a fire in the Mission.
So we had six shoots on Thursday night… #1 – SFMOMA Member Sessions #2 – Passion and Provocation #3 – Group photo #4 – Leadership SF #5 – NAR Gala #6 – Countrywide
