So this past weekend during First Exposures mentoring I was out taking photos with one of the mentees and came across this new gyro woman ad – this time for Chicken Gyros. I hadn’t seen this one and it is nice to see a new addition to the library of stock gyro women in the posters (as we’ve noted before on our blog). My mentee was mostly documenting graffiti and I actually was able to learn a [...]
Last night Creativity Explored had their 25th Anniversary Benefit at Foreign Cinema. The event had a silver theme to it (25 years, the silver anniversary) and most of the artists, mentors, board members and supporters were on hand on a beautiful and balmy evening. Creativity Explored does some great work and if you are an artist yourself or a supporter of the arts, CE is a great organization to get behind. In their own words, they are [...]
So last night Tipping Point had their 2008 Benefit party at Bimbo’s. They raised a lot of money for the groups they support and all sorts of luminaries were on hand. The work Tipping Point does is really impressive and you can find out more in this video they produced.
It was just us girls at the Boys and Girls Club of San Francisco event Saturday. They’ve created a fantastic clubhouse complete with pool tables, computer lab, photo studio, darkroom, and silk screening. The girls were really showered with attention by all the volunteers. Was great to see and document.

We were a sponsor for the Bark & Whine Ball, the only ball you can bring your best friend. Our photo booth station was a pretty big hit because we were projecting the photo shoot real time as the guests in joy and amazement. Unfortunately by the end of the night, i had lost my voice trying to cajole dogs into being cooperative.

We crossed the Bay to document the Crowden Music Center’s gala at the Oakland Rotunda. It was a really lovely event with performances from the young and talented.
Myleen and I donated part of our lazy Sunday to shoot this year’s Compassionate Chefs Cafe at the very delicious New Delhi Restaurant on Ellis Street. This was a lively Bollywood-themed event that benefitted both the Tenderloin After School Program in San Francisco and the Gandhi Ashram of New Delhi. We hear they raised over $16K! If you’re interested in working with Orange as part of our Social Photography program, please let us know.
Orange was on hand to capture the 5th Annual Girlstock in downtown Oakland as part of our social photography program. An excellent opportunity to see some local talent at intimate venues, plus the proceeds benefit two great organizations, The Positive Resource Center and Pets Are Wonderful Support. My favorite were the completely mesmerizing, sword-balancing Suhaila Salimpour belly dancers.
