Printing Onsite – what gear to use?
We get asked a lot about onsite printing, and at several presentations I’ve given in the past the first question is almost inevitably “what gear do you use?” Of course photographers are often very interested in gear, and ever since the advent of digital and the advances in technology in general, the gear seems to change at an ever faster rate.

World Cup: Who Are You Rooting For?
I don’t know about you guys – but I have some major World Cup fever. Games are full of drama, culture, crazy skills (and pretty fútbol players) – it’s all so captivating.
Thanks to SF Recreation and Parks and friends, you can watch the games in Civic Center Plaza. Stop by and watch a game sometime… feel the camaraderie! Here’s a tiny moment from Tuesday’s matchup, Spain vs. Portugal – […]
Wedding trends we like: pockets in dresses
I can’t live without pockets. I hate having limited storage options and one of the coolest things I’ve been seeing at weddings lately is pockets in dresses. My most recent wedding had the coolest pockets – integrated right into the stylish wedding gown. […]

A while back my business partner Jack read Conley’s book Peak: How Great Companies […]
Anchor Brewery press coverage
So the big news has been out for a bit now, but we were on hand to take the press shots of Fritz Maytag, Keith Greggor and Tony Foglio that went along with the announcement. It was an honor to meet Mr. Maytag who’s really humble and soft spoken. As someone who thoroughly enjoys beer (and especially craft brews) I owe thanks to Mr. Maytag.
The shot above was one of the […]

Sarah Silverman backstage and on City Arts & Lectures
We’ve said it many times before that one of the great things about shooting events is the variety of work we get to do. A last minute shoot happened (we often get last minute bookings and are almost always able to respond), and it was for our friends at City Arts & Lectures who had comedienne Sarah Silverman on the program.
As I waited […]
