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.
Ghana Youth Photo Project Fundraiser @ 111 Minna!
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.
As part of our Social Photography program, we often like to support other arts organizations, and Southern Exposure is a very cool group. We shot Momentum, their Annual Spring Fundraiser and Art Auction and one of the pieces up for the live auction was this Gus Van Sant piece. Personally I liked a piece that ended up going for upwards of $800 so I wasn’t able to take it home.
