This past week we Americans were more than ready to get together with family and gobble up a big meal. But in Indian culture, Diwali (the festival of lights) was just finishing up along with the My India Event Trends showcase at San Francisco City Hall.
We were honored to be asked to capture this cultural and exciting evening and collaborate with some of our favorite […]
Just this past week we were in Chicago to shoot the Schwab IMPACT conference and just got back from it. One of the things that came up during the conference that we’ve tackled before, was the amount of walking during a day of shooting. Talking to one of the other photographers, I decided to track how many steps I took during the full day […]
The Giants won the World Series for the second time in three years and we went to the parade and rally again yesterday! It was so fun and we let folks from the studio take off to check it out if they wanted since so many of us here are Giants fans. I was particularly psyched to see Tony Bennett again and this was the […]
Well, the 2012 baseball season is over and the crew at Orange was super excited to see our San Francisco Giants win the World Series for the second time in three years. It was also awesome that one of the main hashtags for the postseason was #OrangeOctober, which of course, we loved!
During the course of the season, we took some Impossible Project […]
Last night I got an impromptu invitation to check out the game from fellow photographer Myleen Hollero and got to sit in the upper deck for the first time. The view was pretty cool and it was a good game with Madison Bumgarner pitching strong and getting the win, and solid defense to compliment just enough offense including the game winning RBI from Hunter Pence […]
Orange’s guide to natural retouching. (roll over Rebecca above to see her before picture)
The topic of retouching can be a tricky one. With advances in digital technology, the widely accepted embrace of digital photography by the professional photography community and the saturation of photo enhancement programs, everyone is “photoshopping” these days. It’s expected. It’s requested. Even the name of the program, Photoshop, […]
This past weekend we covered Venue Connect 2012 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for the IAVM. It occurred to me during the event that we, as event photographers, do a lot of walking when we shoot. That paired with the less than wise choice to bring my ‘cool’ shoes instead of my super comfy shoes, led me to think a lot about my feet and what they […]
Just last month we finally took our team out to explore Pier 24. If you haven’t heard about it, it’s an exhibition space that’s used to showcase photography. Much of the exhibit is from the Pilara Foundation Collection but they also showcase other work outside of the collection.
The collection on display during our visit (and that’s up until February 28, 2013) is called About Face, and […]
I remember first seeing/hearing about the Gigapan when David Bergman shot with it at President Obama’s inauguration (see the photo here and read about his experience shooting it on his own blog posting). Recently one of our clients hired us to shoot a group shot with it and it was a lot of fun to use. The software is incredibly simple and so is setting […]
Museums are great because they can bring you back to the past, but a good museum can also propel you into the future or at least make you think about it. The Computer History Museum does just that and we’ve shot all kinds of events there from an Audi test drive event in the parking lot to numerous tech parties. The museum has been […]
