We know everyone is busy welcoming in the new year and perhaps making their own New Years Resolutions so if you resolve to keep up with what’s happening in the events industry then here’s a list we’ve compiled of the top events industry blogs to follow.
Another standby, the Event Manager Blog is full of great insights and perspectives. We like their take on things like this post: 7 Winning Ways of the Event […]
We were fortunate enough to get to attend chasejarvisLIVE live and in person recently! Two members from our team were in attendance in the standing-room-only creativeLIVE studios here in San Francisco on Wednesday June 18th where Tina Roth Eisenberg (aka @swissmiss) was in conversation with Chase Jarvis.
One of the themes was side projects and labors of love and why you […]
Recently we had two awesome customer service experiences with two brands we have had a longstanding relationship with. One is Think Tank Photo who produces camera bags and accessories, and the other is with Lexar Media. The first product we ever bought from Think Tank was the Airport Antidote camera bag. It was right after the company started up and we heard about them when shooting for the […]
As photographers, you may have heard about the Instagram terms of service kerfuffle a while back, but it kind of died down and then it seemed like radio silence. However, the real issue for all users is what the those TOS (Terms of Service) really are and how they impact all users of Instagram.

Pinball machines are popping up all over. Is this a trend or something old becoming cool again? We decided to investigate mostly because our company has a couple big pinball fans in our midst and we hope that it’s both a trend and becoming cool again.
We talked to Luiza Flodr of Video Amusement, which is a company that rents video games, pinball […]
Photographing events gives us a pretty broad exposure into the world of how events are run and how people respond to them. However, on Tuesday March 19th, Kevin White, CSEP, and Chief Strategist at XPL presented on the psychology of events. This was an interesting topic since it went much deeper into how to make events with maximum impact.
The keys can down to something that all photographers are familiar […]
One of the trends that we’re happy to see is the integration of design not just into graphics and marketing but as a general philosophy. We’ve shot things at IDEO and with the d:school at Stanford and this whole design world view seems to be gaining more and more momentum. I recently watched Milton Glaser: To Inform and Delight and found his insights to […]
It’s Friday! It’s San Francisco Beer Week! In honor of that earlier this week we hosted some of our Associate Photographers at the studio for a photo booth and happy hour gathering. As we’re evolving our program, we brought together some folks to chat about the changes that are happening with the program and some of the new things we’ve implemented as well […]
Ever since Polaroid announced that it was done with instant photography and the Impossible Project started up, I’ve been obsessed with instant photography. I had some of the last packs of Polaroid film and still have one pack in the fridge that, most likely, I should use pretty soon.
Anyhow, when I heard about Instant: The Story of Polaroid was being released, I was excited to check […]
Most people know of Tony Bennett as the amazing musician, but he’s also a painter and does watercolors. I had just come from checking out a watercolor show of a high school friend, Iain Stewart, when I decided to crack open this book and start on it while visiting my family in Alabama.
Right off the bat, some of the things Bennett notes were […]
