Bill Gates on Philanthropy

7194_SequoiaGates_0083fLast week we photographed Bill Gates talking about philanthropy and a host of other subjects at the AirBnB headquarters in San Francisco.  He spoke to Sequoia’s Michael Moritz and it was an interesting exchange to hear one of the world’s foremost philanthropists and tech luminaries speak.  It was neat to see that Gates is a very down-to-earth guy, and still a nerd at heart.

As the event photographer, […]

genex2013_0709fWe shoot quite a bit in Las Vegas, and people are always interested in what types of photo shoot locations there are.  Of course there’s the Strip and downtown (where we like shooting around the graffiti spots) but there’s also places further out that are quite popular including the dry lake bed south of town and Red Rocks and Nelson, the abandoned mining town.

Of course, […]

6184_KellyMaloneSpeakeasy_0048fWe do a ton of holiday parties each year and of course our studio booth and photo booth options are always a hit but we’ve also got to see a lot of different other holiday party venues and ideas that people have for their holiday parties and thought we’d showcase a few of the things we’ve seen.  One of the things for smaller companies is […]

Recology and Art at the Dump tour

06_26_13_Recology_orange_RAW-0013fRecology is known to most local Bay Area folks as the company that picks up our trash, compost and recycling.  But in 1993 they started their Artists in Residence Program aka Art at the Dump.

Currently two artists are working in the program: Kristin Cammermeyer (a painter doing stop motion), and Chad Hasegawa.

We took our team out to check it out and as a Green Business, also to see what […]

Imagine: How Creativity Works by Jonah Lehrer is a good book for photographers since it delves into creativity and inspiration and where that all comes from.

Since many photographers are also small business owners, the same creativity and inspiration is also useful for running and growing a business.

Some of the insights that came out of the book make a lot of sense and having done a […]

In case you didn’t fly Emirates Air last month, you might not have seen the May 2013 issue of Open Skies Magazine which featured one of our photos on the cover for a piece entitled Pinball Wizards starting on page 46. As you might know if you’re a reader of our blog, we’ve been seeing pinball trending in popularity and this is yet another article supporting […]

Visit Denmark!

We got to work this event that Key Events put on for Visit Denmark and SAS Airlines and you can see our photography team at work shooting Polaroids and such in this video.  I recently made my first trip to Denmark and Copenhagen (and Roskilde) and flew SAS to Copenhagen and had a wonderful time.  The Smørrebrød brought back memories from the trip (I had it several times, and you can get some […]

Summer movies will be upon soon and we’ve already started having some fun photo booths starting with this Iron Man 3 premiere party.

This Iron Man photo booth was interactive with a real live Iron Man, who as you can see here, wasn’t using his full powers…

However, we predict one of the popular themes for events and parties will be The Great Gatsby.  If you’ve seen Baz Luhrmann’s […]

Time Lapse Photo Booths

2017-07-24T21:22:57-07:00By |Categories: Photobooth, Point of View, Special Events and Meetings|Tags: , , |

Time lapse and photo booths can go quite well together.  We do regular time lapses (as shown above, for the 2011 ISES-NCC Gala at the Bently Reserve) as well as regular photo booths of all sorts, so setting up a time lapse photo booth is a fun merge of the two.  We’ve done this quite a lot for private parties as well as corporate so if you haven’t thought of a […]
