In June, we hosted a couple of Fotovision lighting workshops taught by Glenn Matsumura.

I helped Gene out with this fun profile fashion shoot a few weeks ago. The select was just published in the Nob Hill Gazette.
Since the theme was “Luxury at the Pump,” we set up shop at the ol’ San Francisco Petroleum Co. station in the Dogpatch. Cement trucks and double decker tour buses kept stopping by to fill up with diesel, so definitely got some looky loos. I suppose their typical customer isn’t […]

I read a good article on photo permits that Scott Kelby from Photoshop Insider posted. Here in San Francisco we do a lot of location shoots so we’ve come across this. If you are shooting in a Parks and Rec property then you do need a permit. The fees and such are all outlined on the […]
The SF MOMA hosts some really great Family Programs. You can bring the kids for free and check out educational activities hosted in the Koret Center as well as performances around the museum. These are always a joy to shoot (I get paid to stalk the lil munchkins!). Find out more about upcoming programs here.
Perhaps a couple of weeks ago you passed by the Civic Center and noticed it gloriously lit up in blue? The occasion was the SF Symphony’s annual Black and White Ball, which Orange was on hand to shoot. The party was impressive. Above was captured by one of our team, Nikki Richter.
