Once upon a time it was my dream to shoot and direct music videos.  Over time I’ve grown out of MTV.  Heck, MTV has grown out of MTV.  Where are the videos?  They’re still being made and sometimes they’re just great.  They remind us that the power of music + image can be a super […]

a sunday stroll

Marie and I spent our extra hour of sleep this past weekend and took more photos for her blog So What if I Like Pretty Things.  There is no rest for us!  We zipped around the Mission District for a quick stroll and a few poses.  Fall is here and there’s no turning back now. […]

Happy November peeps!  In honor of my sister Marie who moved from Chicago 1 month ago, I thought my latest retro post should represent for the windy city.  Here are some of the mobile adventures I had along Lake Michigan.  High five to Goose Island Brewery, Old Town Social and Big Star for delicious exploits!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to shoot maternity photos for Alli and Dave.  We snapped some sweet photos at their place and then headed to San Francisco’s Presidio to take advantage of the late afternoon light.  Looking forward to sharing more of these soon.

Losing a buddy is hard.  This week I had to put my cat Yoda to sleep.  He was such a good pal.  I also got pretty sick which didn’t help the situation.  When I’m having a rough go I turn to my family, friends, food, and music.  There’s something so comforting in making a mix. […]
