Hartmann Studios threw their 2013 Client Appreciation event last night at Fort Mason Center and it was the event to be at for event industry professionals. Here’s a few of our shots from the evening but we’ll be posting the full gallery online soon. We’ve also posted some of […]
Sometimes we get so busy that we forget to blog about fun events that we get to cover. One of those was the Variety Children’s Comedy Benefit that headlined Zach Galifianakis. It happened during the always fun SF Sketchfest, and was help at The Punchline’s in support of Variety’s Therapeutic Scholarship Program. The program proving scholarships to deserving disabled children to receive specialized care and to achieve greatness through their Mobility […]
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 […]
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 […]
What’s the best part about event and hospitality conventions? Going home with all the freebies? Well, aside from that, it’s a chance to get great personal interaction and insight from the kinds of companies that you cross paths with every day. It also provides a rare opportunity, as so much is done virtually these days, to put everyone and everything into perspective. Visiting an exhibit booth […]
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 […]
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 […]
Last night we had a blast at The Bold Italic‘s 2nd microhood event here in the Dogpatch, 3rd Base. If you stopped by the Dodocase space, then you probably hopped into our photobooth and tried some samples of delicious Almanac Beers, or maybe some Spicy Vines Spiced Wine? Of course there was the addictive Bacon Crack from Nosh This available too and plenty […]
Help-Portrait was a lot of fun this year and Orange was happy to participate including donating equipment and supplies as well as manpower. This year our Help-Portrait location at the Bayview Opera House photographed over 670 people and included 117 volunteers. It was even crazier than last year and the vibe was fantastic. The kids in First Exposures all had fun and realized the power of giving back to the community. This video was […]
