I was hired to shoot architectural interior and exterior photos of Fogo de Chao’s newest location at Santana Row in San Jose, California. There are several challenges to this spot – it’s on a high traffic location (both foot traffic from the mall and cars from the main roads), it has a stoplight and streetlight right in […]

Morton’s the Steakhouse (San Jose) is partnering up with the San Francisco 49ers for their upcoming “Celebrity Servers” event. It’s a fund-raising effort to benefit different charities that each celebrity chooses to represent. If you’d like to be served by Alex Smith or Patrick Willis and have the opportunity to bid on signed sports memorabilia […]

Morton’s Steakhouse San Jose held a VIP event this evening promoting their newly expanded space that can be used for events, receptions, or even dinner (haha). It was bedecked with cool, glowing, kiosk-like tables, beautiful bouquets, fancy lighting and chic furniture. Next to the bar was a beautifully sculptured ice luge that was being used […]

The CEO loved my Morton’s San Jose photos so much, corporate immediately booked my services for the San Francisco location. It really looks very similar to the San Jose location, except it’s two floors and they have a two full bars and a nifty glass wine room. Here’s a few of my favorites… Like what […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

I met up with my buddy Daniel Patino today, the Executive Chef at Downtown San Jose’s Arcadia (in the Marriott Hotel). We wanted a couple photos of their Thanksgiving special which he was kind enough to plate up for me. Here’s a pic from the quick shoot below. Afterwards we went up to the 26th […]

Finally got a chance to get some food shots at Pampas – the meat is amazing and although the plated dishes aren’t the main feature they’re nothing to scoff at. Chef John Karbowski knows his stuff! It was a pleasure as always to work with the team there. More pics here.
