Franco Uomo Fashion @ Santana Row (Men’s Clothing)

Franco has a bunch of new clothes to show off, and since he’s already located at beautiful Santana Row, it stands to reason that we’d do our fashion shoot here. Every alley is a gem, with beautiful textured wood and vibrant paint. It’s tough to take a bad photo with all the wonderful backdrops to […]

#1 “Best of Yelp”

I just happened to be looking for something on Yelp today and noticed that the Yelp Folks were headlining their “Best Of” businesses on their main page. It defaulted to the Santa Cruz area as that’s where I live, and out of curiosity I clicked on the “Professional Services” category. My jaw dropped when I […]

JT & Chloe (Brother & Sister Portraits)

JT & Chloe’s mom hired me to take some photos of her kids as a surprise for father’s day. They are super cute, and very sassy with each other. I tried to capture all the in-between moments, the tickling before the pushing, the hand-holding before the pinching, the arm around the shoulder before the headlock […]

Blue Rock BBQ (Interiors)

Owen and Marie Jobson have done a fantastic job with their first restaurant, Blue Rock BBQ (San Jose). The interior, signage and and identity all indicate a corporate franchise – but alas, this is simply a well executed vision by two entrepreneurs who are passionate about southern cooking and bringing service back to the service […]

Morton’s the Steakhouse (Interiors Part II)

So round one for Morton’s was last week, this week we focused on promoting the space for weddings and parties. Morton’s is world-renowned for their excellent cuts of cow-flesh (and who doesn’t love that!), and in that regard they don’t disappoint. But for some reason people don’t see Morton’s as a kid-friendly or fun party-friendly […]

Tarragon (Interiors + Food)

Tarragon is an amazing restaurant owned and managed by Dottia Bilic (and hubby) located in downtown Sunnyvale – you know – Murphy Street. Downstairs is a first-class restaurant with open kitchen, upstairs is a large banquet and patio space perfect for weddings/receptions. It’s a great venue to eat and to party, and I highly recommend […]

Tomatina (Interiors + Food)

Ah, Tomatina, how I love you even though you’re kind of a chain restaurant… but I won’t hold that against you, because your pizza is sooo good! And who knew you had such succulent desserts? I mean, look at these cream-puff things? Thanks for “using” my services, I will forever thank you [burp!]. Enjoy the […]

Faultline Brewery (Interiors + Food)

Faultline Brewery in Sunnyvale needed some new shots, so of course I was there to do what I do best – eat food! Did I just say that? Um… well, I shot it, THEN ate it, like a good boy. This is actually quite a nice location for a wedding (Sarah + Matt), there’s lots […]

Arya Global Cuisine (Food + Interiors)

Mike and Fera own Arya Global Cuisine in Cupertino – it’s a beautiful space off El Camino Real. They have created a unique blend of Persian, Italian and American cuisine that is really quite good. The space is deceptively large and can accommodate events and parties of all kinds. Drop in and say Chris from […]

Jennifer Galvin (Portrait)

My wife is a runner and swears by Jennifer Galvin’s body therapy services. Not just a masseuse, Jennifer knows how to safely manipulate your appendages like a surgeon takes to the blade. Her clients tend to be athletes looking for relief from specific injuries, or simply people that have pain or stress and need a […]

Morton’s the Steakhouse (Interiors Part I)

So I definitely was not prepared for the number of interior photos I’d be shooting for Morton’s the Steakhouse in San Jose. When I assured them it would only take a couple of hours, they hesitated, unsure of whether I was grasping the entirety of their needs. You see, usually I go into a place […]

Gaurav + Isha (Engagement)

I met Gaurav through my Yelp profile, he originally wanted me to take photos of his actual proposal. I was thinking, cool, I will finally be hired to to Schmauch-arazzi work! But alas, plans changed – I guess the pressure was too great. However, his fiancee said “yes” this morning so I made my way […]

Ok, so forgive me the dramatic headline. I’m on a roll for non-professional posts on my blog, so here’s one more; I tend to avoid putting personal stuff here, but I thought there were a few gems from today that I had to share. Well more than a few – between my wife and I […]

Medallion Steakhouse (Interiors + Food)

I had a quick shoot today with Lee Duvall’s Medallion Steakhouse in Burlingame. She wanted some interiors of the restaurant that opened late last year – and since this is my specialty I was on the case. We managed to shoot a tasty-looking steak (it was wayyy too rare to eat unfortunately) and some crab […]

Strawberry Day at Gault Elementary

Stawberry Day at Gault Elementary (my daughter’s school) is full of (you guessed it) strawberry-related activities, the core of which is a little hide-and-seek in the special outdoor “Life Lab,” the expansive garden that the teachers and kids maintain. The kids were having a ton of fun, and I had a great time chasing them […]

Gutter Patrol (Photos + Mailer Design)

Gutter Patrol wanted a postcard mailer to help promote their window cleaning services. Since this is GoodEye Photography + Design, I put on both my photographer and design hats to come up with a concept that would attract attention and communicate the message. It took me a while to sell the husband & wife team […]

Magazine Cover (Before / After: v10 i07)

People keep asking me “Did you really take that photo,” or, “Did you photoshop that picture together?” – so to put the questions to rest I’m writing this here blog post. As you can plainly see in the top left photo, the clouds, grass, cows and lone tree are all part of the original landscape. […]

Mill Rose Inn, HMB (Interiors / Exteriors)

My wife and I recently stayed at Mill Rose Inn, nestled near downtown Half Moon Bay. It may not boast an ocean view, but once you walk into the secluded gardens, you’re immersed in an oasis of comfort and class. You’ll feel like royalty occupying one of the six unique rooms – the design of […]
