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 […]
Most beer lovers recognize Anchor Steam as the quintessential and/or original S.F. beer brand. But not everyone knows they can book a a tour (up to two months advance notice often required) to see the brewery and learn how their world-class beer is made. Anchor has also been one of my favorite clients over the past few years (we’ve photographed everything from their holiday party/Christmas Ale releases to their […]
You may have heard that Speakeasy has a new taproom designed by Kelly Malone and we finally checked it out during a fundraiser for her. The place is gorgeous and we set up a photobooth for the benefit too and because of the design it was a cinch to make it look amazing since the design and interior is so sweet. The gangster speakeasy style comes through from […]
In case you hadn’t noticed that the city might be a bit more tipsy than usual, that’s because it’s San Francisco Beer Week!
We covered the Opening Night gala on Friday which has grown tremendously over the years and during the week there are a ridiculous number of events going on. There’s probably a lot of “working from home” or calling in sick (which I guess could be […]
If you aren’t already at the DIPA Fest then you might be remembering all the great beers from last night’s opening celebration for San Francisco Beer Week!
Like many, we first had to grab a taste of Pliny the Younger. Always a hugely popular brew, I felt kind of sorry for the Russian River folks with such a huge line right from the start. But there were plenty of great […]
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 […]
The team at Orange knows how to work hard but we also know how to have a good time! After a super busy and successful holiday season, we took a trip out to Tahoe to catch up with each other and get some fresh air. Naturally, there were cameras in every hand along with beers, good food, and […]
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 […]
Colin Kaepernick has got all the hype right now and we recall photographing him the first time and how chill and down to earth he was. In October of 2011 at the 49ers facility in Santa Clara, I spoke with him about what it felt like to be in the NFL and a 49er. He was super excited to play and watching him hum passes was a lot […]
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 […]
