As a San Francisco Green Business we’ve always loved Earth Day and supported efforts to green our business as much as we can. In fact, we started out as a digital studio back in 2001 because we liked how digital wasn’t as chemically intensive as traditional film processing was.

As a CPS (Canon Professional Services) member, there are a few things you get that are nice perks but one of the newer things we got this year was the CPS magazine (now in its sixth issue). Since it’s published by Canon there’s an obvious bent towards their products but they do feature some […]

One of the ways I like to spend time is listening to This American Life when I travel or when it’s actually on the air. The program is fantastic with all sorts of stories about an unimaginable number of subjects. […]
We were honored to photograph President Barrack Obama during a recent fundraiser held at the Nob Hill Masonic Center. Gene was there to capture some great images and fun tidbits from the night. The President gave a passionate speech which resulted in some enthusiastic crowd members to shout out “I love you” with the President responding with “I love you too”. Chris Cornell of […]
Last week was the Noise Pop Festival where there were a ton of great bands in town. Shooting shows and bands live is really fun since there’s usually a lot of emotion and passion, which makes it easier to capture interesting photos. Since we were shooting for the festival we got to see a great mix of bands. Here’s a […]

Also last night, La […]

This year, he’s a semifinalist for the James Beard Foundation’s Rising Star Chef of the Year Award. In the Bay Area we’re so fortunate to have […]
