So, yesterday I shot some interiors for Faz at MacArthur Park Restaurant in Palo Alto, and they liked the photos so much they wanted to see what I could do with their food. I obliged, and invited some friends to help eat the tasty morsels. If I didn’t get help eating all the time, I’d […]

I’m lucky enough to be in a position where I can both photograph and design magazine covers, but in the real world it typically doesn’t happen this way. Often the magazine art director (AD) isn’t even involved in the shoot – they simply receive the end result and need to “make it work.” When I […]

I had the pleasure of shooting the new promotional photos for Five Branches University. We spent all day in Santa Cruz going through our extensive shot list for the day’s worth of work. All the students and staff were very amiable and open to being in the photos, which says a lot for the Santa […]
