I don’t know about you guys – but I have some major World Cup fever. Games are full of drama, culture, crazy skills (and pretty fútbol players) – it’s all so captivating.

Thanks to SF Recreation and Parks and friends, you can watch the games in Civic Center Plaza. Stop by and watch a game sometime… feel the camaraderie!   Here’s a tiny moment from Tuesday’s matchup, Spain vs. Portugal – […]

The First Exposures program is one we’ve supported for quite some time.  I remember first thinking about doing a similar idea through Orange but then found out that it was already being done well, and now I’ve been mentoring with that program for a few years.  Last month there was an auction which we had our photobooth at and it was a big hit.  But […]

We were delighted to host the First Exposures program as the last real big ‘event’ at our old studio space at 1261 Howard in SOMA.  It was a lot of fun and I think the kids got a kick out of it.  It’s amazing all the different looks you can get in that one spot, and the kids got really creative as did the mentors.

There will be a benefit […]

Our studio manager extraordinaire, Natalie, turns a quarter of a century old today.

It’s a diverse area, sharing borders with Tibet, Vietnam, Myanmar, Laos. I got to see a lot of spectacular things, sweeping views and slices of daily […]
