Well one of the most fun things about event photography that I really enjoy is the fact that you never know who you might meet. This past weekend I was shooting at Casa Real, where we were shooting an event that Method 42 had produced and I ran into surf legend Jeff Clark. Most people have heard of Mavericks, the surf competition up here in Northern California and may have seen the movie Riding Giants in which [...]
Last night Creativity Explored had their 25th Anniversary Benefit at Foreign Cinema. The event had a silver theme to it (25 years, the silver anniversary) and most of the artists, mentors, board members and supporters were on hand on a beautiful and balmy evening. Creativity Explored does some great work and if you are an artist yourself or a supporter of the arts, CE is a great organization to get behind. In their own words, they are [...]
Currently the San Jose Museum of Art has an exhibition called Robots. Since we do quite a lot of shooting over at the museum for green screen, on-site printing and various photo booths and candids, we get to see a lot of the work throughout the year. The Robots exhibit is pretty interesting and there are some great pieces. This piece is located outdoors and he was keeping an evil eye on us during our last shoot [...]
Last weekend we shot a wedding down in San Jose and when you do a lot of weddings you see a lot of the same vendors around. At this particular wedding there seemed to be a lot of ‘A-team’ players and it’s always nice to work with top vendors. These floral designs were done by Natalie Bowen of Natalie Bowen Floral Design. She’s based in San Francisco but does work all over the Bay Area.
Tonight Melanie Charlton Fascitelli had a book signing party @ Carrots. Her book is entitled Shop Your Closet: The Ultimate Guide to Organizing your Closet with Style and is available now at Carrots and online.
So last night Tipping Point had their 2008 Benefit party at Bimbo’s. They raised a lot of money for the groups they support and all sorts of luminaries were on hand. The work Tipping Point does is really impressive and you can find out more in this video they produced.
So flying back from Costa Rica above El Salvador I saw this storm cloud out the airplane window. There was lightning in the cloud but it was hard to catch being night time and having to hand hold the camera as well as try to catch a series of lighting. Most of them were just the clouds glowing but I lucked out on this shot. Canon 50mm 1.4 lens at 2.0, 1/15 sec. and ISO 640
Last night AdAuthority had a party at Slide that packed the club. DJ Scotty Boy flew in from Las Vegas to spin and there was dancing breaking out all over. Lotus Vodka was poured for the ladies complimentary and everyone seemed to have a great time. Ad industry folks definitely know how to enjoy themselves…

It was just us girls at the Boys and Girls Club of San Francisco event Saturday. They’ve created a fantastic clubhouse complete with pool tables, computer lab, photo studio, darkroom, and silk screening. The girls were really showered with attention by all the volunteers. Was great to see and document.
