Over this years Memorial Day weekend, Rachel and I attended her younger sister’s wedding in Tacoma, Washington. For me it was a very casual wedding to shoot as I was also a guest and took photos during the ceremony and briefly during the reception. Their wedding was very much a family and friend affair, her [...]

I have been trying out different pin-up style shots and processes lately. I’ve always loved the style of work and want to try and get into it more. I used to love drawing different pin-up style girls and would try my best to replicate Gil Elvgren and Alfons Mucha (I even tried to learn [...]

For my birthday this year, Rachel took me to the newly remodeled California Academy of Sciences. I used to love coming to this place as a child, my grandmother worked there teaching photography seminars to students and while she was there after hours, I’d get to wander the halls and explore the ancient insects, dinosaurs, [...]

I had been trying to line up a photoshoot with local rapper, Rhino, but he wanted a private jet in order to promote his upcoming album release, Mr. International. Luckily, at the last minute, I was able to pull some strings with an old friend who got us access to the San Jose Jet Center [...]

Occasionally you cross paths with people who are a bit more than ordinary. Seemingly living in their own worlds of fantasy and mysteries, I wanted to try and replicate a part of that. The world Julie has in her imagination, traveling spirits and vampires in the shadows, every turn wields new wonders.
I sat on [...]

On Tuesday, February 24th, I was honored to be able to host one of David Bazan’s house shows here in my own home. Having to clean the house was a whole other issue that my girlfriend, Rachel, and I had to deal with, but the end result was very much worth it. Everything dusted and [...]

I decided to make the trek over the hill to Santa Cruz to catch the next of Dave’s house shows that he is playing in the area. He’s actually playing at my place this coming Tuesday, but being the audiophile freak I am, I couldn’t pass up recording these couple of shows.
Hopefully if you [...]

A buddy of mine, David Bazan, is playing a small string of house shows here in the Bay Area. Last night he played in Berkeley, tonight is Santa Cruz, and next week is here in San Jose. It was a great evening, a very intimate show setting with some really awesome Q & A sessions.

Not even a week after the first shoot, we decided to try out a new girl for some photos and to just get more material to work with for our line of posters and prints for the car washes.
I made a new logo for the bikini car washes and you can kind of see [...]

A friend and I are going to be putting on a bikini car wash this spring/summer for various shops around the Bay Area so we decided to hold a photo shoot at one of the businesses in their warehouse. Initially I thought we’d just be posing the girls with various products around the guy’s place, [...]

On June 15, 1965, this Amphicar was one of two to make the first ride down the Yukon river with another Amphicar, led by two nature photographers/rockhounds, one video documentary maker, and the Alaska Amphicar dealer from Anchorage.
They drove over the Glenn Highway, then down the Alaskan Highway to the junction of the Taylor [...]
The fossils found at the rolling hills of Chengjiang in the Yunnan Province of China are the second oldest fossils found in the world. Only beat by the Ediacaran faunas in Australia, which date to about 580 million years old, the Chengjiang fossils come in at a distant second at 525 million years old, much [...]
