Assistants
These are a couple pre-shoot shots of my assistants Tyler an Justin from a recent shoot. A lot of times, the assistants are more photogenic than the actual subjects (but not in Justin’s case).
Edward Hopper
This is a photo I shot for the article in San Francisco Magazine I wrote about the other day. It was shot on location at the very cool restaurant Serpentine, which happens to be in the same building as my studio. The photo editor for the magazine said this felt like an Edward Hopper painting. Edward Hopper is a favorite of mine, so I liked that.
Reinvention
Last month I photographed a project for San Francisco Magazine on “Reinvention.” The article was about eighteen people who have recently reinvented themselves, most of them going from a more traditional career to something they are far more passionate about. It was a great project to work on and I met a lot of interesting people over the four days of shooting.
French Laundry
Back in December I did a shoot for Wine Spectator magazine, photographing French Laundry’s owner and chef Thomas Keller. Unfortunately we didn’t get to eat at French Laundry while we were there since it was early in the morning, but they did provide us with some of the best pastries I’ve ever had in my life. And, the gift bag they gave us full of freshly made desserts was gone within minutes of arriving home.
iPad Portfolio: Game Changer HD
After the iPad was announced I wrote about the potential for using an iPad as a portfolio… Well now the iPad is here (yes, i was one of the loser dorks standing in line at 6:30am) and I did a quick test with a few images to try it out.
I’m writing this on my iPad, and let me tell you, after only a day of use it’s still a major PITA. And don’t worry, I’m not going to talk about anything other than the iPad’s functionality as a portfolio… I’m quite certain there are thousands of iPad reviews out there by now for all the other stuff.
