Sarah, Take #1

Sarah was good enough to come by and shoot last minute after another model flaked. Always good shooting with her... Been working on and off with Sarah since 2010...

Great window light in this new space I found, looking forward to shooting more there in the near future...

Word On The Street...

It Technicolor... From April and May, some local color from around The City...

Rain Delay with Amber Kourtney

I've known Amber for some years now, and even though I haven't shot with her as much as some other models, regardless of how long it's been since we last collaborated, it usually takes us all of 30 seconds to get into a groove and start making good images. She's fun to work with, energetic, and always brings something to the table...

We decided we were going to attempt to shoot in the rain. How hard could it be, it rains all winter in Northern California right? Queue drought...

The first go round it was literally 68 degrees and sunny. So much for emo weather, but it was a good shoot none the less. We postponed for a bit, mostly due to my talent for breaking bones. After healing up, we gave it another go, this time it rained all day, stopped for the 2 hours that we were shooting, then picked up again later that night and didn't stop for a week. 

Third time is a charm apparently. We did this shoot in my backyard late one afternoon. It was absolutely pouring and we had an hour and a half worth of light at best. Things finally seemed to go our way. Then we got drunk and ate stir fry.

Self Esteem

For whatever reason, while feeling nostalgic I suppose, and sifting through images for the Word On The Street gallery, I started sorting out some of the self portraits I randomly snap from time to time. I've plugged 30 or so of the images into a new gallery, Self Esteem...

The gallery goes back about 15 years, I've certainly got a lot less beard (and grey hair) in most of them. See if you can pick out when I got married, my wife started feeding me, and I promptly put on 30 pounds...
