Event photography is great cardio!

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 […]

Pier 24 Photography

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 […]

Shooting with the Gigapan

2017-07-24T21:23:03-07:00By |Categories: Photography, Point of View, Reviews, Special Events and Meetings|Tags: , , |

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 […]

The Computer History Museum takes you back… to the future?

2017-07-24T21:23:03-07:00By |Categories: Business, Photography, Point of View, Special Events and Meetings|Tags: , , , , , , |

Atari 2600 Joystick 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 […]

We’re looking forward to checking out The Winery SF on Treasure Island since we haven’t yet shot there, while the historic Old […]

bay to breakers photos bridesWe love Bay to Breakers and since our studio moved off the race path we hadn’t done a photo booth or photostation like we had in the past so this year we had access to a perfect street spot on Hayes Hill where we set up an impromptu photo booth and enjoyed our Sunday morning.  Here’s a few snaps that we […]

Book Review: What Got You Here, Won’t Get You There

2017-07-24T21:23:04-07:00By |Categories: Business, Photography, Point of View, Reviews|Tags: , , , |

Successful people have little reason to change… makes sense doesn’t it? That’s sort of the gist behind Marshall Goldsmith’s book “What Got You Here, Won’t Get You There”.  It’s a great read for anyone who works with others and/or is a leader so it really hit home for me. As a small business, one of our most important assets is our people, and we’re always striving […]

Greenbuild conference and working with other green businesses

Coming up is the Greenbuild conference and we are super excited for it.  As a San Francisco Green Business and the first photography studio to earn the City and County of San Francisco’s designation for that, we’re always happy to see more green related conferences happening.  It’s a trend that we are in full support of and we look forward to working with many of the […]

We at Orange Photography are huge supporters of biking and while there’s been a lot of negative publicity of bikers in the news, we know that the majority of bikers are good people who follow the rules of the road and of course one of the biggest cycling days in San Francisco is Bike to Work Day.  This year it’s on May 10th and […]
