This past Sunday Jack and I had our baby shower for Uma at the studio. Everyone from the studio was on hand to celebrate with us, and our friends had some fun using the Open Air Photobooth too. We love the photo booth! It’s been to corporate events, weddings, private parties, kids parties and now a baby shower. Where will it be used […]

Tuesday night we covered the WWF’s Year of the Tiger event at the Asian Art Museum. One of the most interesting things about shooting events like this is picking up knowledge about whatever it is you are photographing. I didn’t realize that in the wild, there are only about 3200 tigers left in the world.  And for those of you […]

The difference between a headshot and portrait?

A headshot is sternum up, tightly cropped, with a standard backdrop. Some even refer to them as mug shots. Simple, direct, and predictable stylization, which is usually shot at the studio.

Last week I received a call from Florian of Germany. He told me that he was going to be in SF for a week and wanted to do a portrait session. I didn’t quite believe it because there have been plenty of scams going around about foreigners securing services, trying to pay in advance, etc. Anyway, it turns out it was a real inquiry and he walks into […]
