Cat and Max – I love you guys – had a BBQ at their new digs. Yummy food, good people, and way cute kids. I think I could watch kids eat for days. Someone should make a TV show… “Kids Eating”. Enjoy the pictures.
Max covered the labels with blue tape… not wanting to offend any of his guests with his vulgar BBQ rubs. But their identities were revealed. And let me tell you, that was some…

Max, the grill master at work.



Some pictures of Sam.



Marc was awesome with his two adorable kids. Hummus lovers the both of them.

I have been busy getting my social on in the last week. Winnie, my wonderful dog, has been enjoying all the company. Here are some pictures of her and the company.
Winnie loves the hedgehog.


She tolerates love now and then.

Little Aya came over for a visit. So cute.

Went to Bolinas for one of the most sweet, heartfelt graduation ceremonies I have been to. My partner’s nephew graduated from 8th grade.
Congratulations Elias!

I got a call from Jen at Saint Vincent de Paul on Friday. She wanted to know if I could come to a women’s shelter that they work with and take pictures of some of the kids there. How could I say no?
Monday evening Jen picked me up at BART and took me to the shelter (at a confidential location). Part of the challenge of photographing there would be that the images had to be taken in such a way as to obscure the identity of the subjects. This is what I came up with.

Out of chaos comes order.
Just a couple of weeks ago, watching the excavators demolish my driveway and basement, it was difficult to see how the huge mounds of concrete and dirt would disappear. It was also difficult to imagine how my basement would be returned a useable state again.
On Friday, after a week of form work and planning, two concrete trucks, one concrete pumper, four finishers, and the guys who did the form work all came together to bring order to what felt like chaos. Here are a couple of pictures.

The boss stopped by looking all spiffy.


A little story telling while the concrete set up a bit.

Tools of the trade.




Finishers doing their thing. Theses guys were amazing.

I Just received a Finao One Album for a client and took a couple of pictures before sending it on it’s way. We decided on a printed metal cover – kinda cool. Check it out.

I met Zach Brown yesterday in down town SF for our head shot session. We cruised over to Yerba Buena Gardens and then to the church across the street and took some pictures.
A little over a year ago Zach was working in North Carolina on his father’s farm when he realized he needed a change in his life. One evening, while watching a movie he decided it was time to follow his dream, by 2 am he was on the road heading to California.
May we all experience that sense of adventure and will to persue what moves us.
Here are a couple of images from our shoot.

Congratulations Ben and Stacey! I hope you two are enjoying the excellent food and drink and having a wonderful time in Spain.
Their wedding last weekend at the Dunsmuir Estate in Oakland was a total blast. Here are some images from the day.
