Adrianna, Take #1

#0488_21 - Adrianna, October 2016

Finally edited through some work I shot with Adrianna way back in October of last year. It was the last shoot I was able to squeeze in before the weather absolutely went sideways on us out here. There was a lot of haze and the light was changing fast, but the wind held off and we were pretty protected by the rocks and were able to shoot for a couple hours without any hypothermia...

All images shot on location at Marshall's Beach in San Francisco. Still have more images to sort through. Hoping to knock out a couple prints in the darkroom from this shoot for future print releases.

Word On The Street

I know it could be worse. I know it could be snow. We're coming out of a drought. I know we need it. But seriously. I'm over it. Enough with the rain... It's making me depressed.

Women's March, San Francisco 2017

Intermitant torential rain not withstanding, well over 100,000 people came out for the Women's March in San Francisco on January 21st.

#0504_15A - "Resist" Civic Center / Women's March, San Francisco, Ca. January 21st, 2017.

#0504_13A - Women's March, San Francisco, Ca. January 21st, 2017.

 

It was a pretty powerful event, to say the least. I've never seen so many take to the streets in such a peaceful demonstration in my entire life. Police presence was virtually non-existent, no arrests were made, everyone got completely soaking wet and absolutely nobody seemed to care...

The march was more of a crawl until the mass hit Market Street. By then it was absolutely pouring. Didn't seem to slow any one down in the least.

Only posting a few images here. For more photographs check out the full Women's March gallery here, or use the link at left.

Inauguration Protests, San Francisco 2017

On inauguration day, January 20th, 2017, hundreds of people gathered on the steps of the old Bank of America Building in San Francisco to protest the election and policies of Donald Trump.

No. 0500_09A - "Resist" Bank of America building, San Francisco, Ca. January 20th, 2017.

No. 0500_22A - A young demonstrator. San Francisco, Ca. January 20th, 2017.

The demonstration was absolutely peaceful despite some reports, there was a minimal police presence, I don't believe any arrests were made at BofA specifically. There were other actions around The City where people were arrested. The overwhelming theme was resistance to the racist, misogynistic and hateful policies of the incoming president.

No. 0501_07A - UN Plaza, San Francisco, Ca. January 20th 2017

Later that evening several thousand people gathered at UN Plaza near City Hall for a rally and march against Trump. Demonstrators marched down Market to the Castro District. Again, police presence was minimal, no arrests were made.

Print Release, February 2017 - No. 0419_28A

A little over a year ago now, on New Years Day, we ended up at the beach... It was freezing and horribly windy but the sun was out and the weather didn't seem to phase the dog one bit, as usual (mine is the little one on the left).

No. #0419_28A - Ocean Beach, San Francisco, Ca. January of 2016.
