Mary and Ryan’s wedding was a joy to photograph for two reasons. One, they were a great couple who threw a fun, relaxed and classy backyard wedding at the beautiful home of Mary’s parents in Morgan Hill, Calif. The second reason was that I got to make pictures again with my friend Chris Jordan, who [...]

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Karlene and Richard’s engagement pictures at Tilden Park in Berkeley. The weather was absolutely perfect and Karlene and Richard looked great. I’m really looking forward to shooting their wedding later this month in Soquel so it was fun to see them together and get to know each other [...]

Here are two very charismatic kids I recently photographed for the newspaper. Julian, a 13-year-old shredder from Suisun City, was doing tricks on the street when I saw him. I shot that for a bit for the paper then made a quick portrait for myself afterwards just because I liked his look and direct approach [...]

I used to shoot film back in the day. Most people did, I’m not saying I’m special. There is a lot to like about film, but my favorite quality is how tangible it is. The image is the film, everything else is a copy. You can digitize it, have it scanned, but if you are [...]
