When I arrived, the house was buzzing with preparations for Lily’s big day. This was the day she would be introduced to solid food. But you have to think of solid as a flexible term. Solid like… soupy rice pudding. But food that’s not in a bottle is a big deal! We were all making…
First of all, if you’re ever trying to find the Queen Anne district, don’t be fooled by the numbering grid in downtown Seattle. They are not connected. In fact, they run in opposite directions. But besides my embarassingly dramatic 45-minute-late entrance, everything about my workshop with Laurence Kim was fantastic. Why fly to Seattle when…
Dan Hutchings is a classical vocalist based in San Francisco now, but soon moving out of state. He’s reserved, straightforward, and classically good looking too. The cool thing about this session is that it’s the first one I did right here, at my new place in San Francisco. Looking forward to many more to come!
My favorite thing about our “tafLabs” room is not the ten computers or the impressive mass of wires and hard drives everywhere. It’s not even the six Canon DSLRs with all their amazing lenses scattered on all the desks. (And you know how much I love my DSLRs!) No, it has nothing to do with…
Susie peered into the window like a child sneaking a peek at the Christmas presents long before it was time, and she gestured me over to show me. In one room, a harpsicord with light-colored wood ornately painted with floral designs. In another, a stark modernist piece with sleek curving lines and a bold red,…
They met through Craigslist! When Kevin was looking for housing for a summer internship in San Francisco, he came across Jenny’s apartment, which was being sublet for a summer. He didn’t end up living there; he didn’t even really get to know Jenny that well right away, but the connection was made. A couple years…
She’s got soul, she’s got style, and it’s no surprise that she’s on the rise. While a lot of musicians these days are going all-virtual with their webcam performances, Krystle Tugadi has taken it back to the stage. She performs live shows several times a week around her Los Angeles/Orange County home base. Don’t worry,…
Duncan is charmingly good looking, and he’s an actor and incredibly talented dancer. Spend some time with him, and you also get to see that he’s a giant goofball on the inside. Plus, have I mentioned he’s an amazing hip hop/break-dancer? Seriously. Look him up on youtube. But check out these photos first:
Even when you first meet her, you can just feel that she is living life and loving it. With a dance background, Amanda moved from Chicago out to Los Angeles to start up her acting career. She’s a wonderful person to be around, and it also doesn’t hurt that she’s amazingly hot. Well, you can…
If you’ve been following along with my blog in the past couple years, you might remember Henry krumping on the streets of San Francisco. I’ve worked with Henry a number of times here and there, and he’s always been a great person to work with and a wonderful friend. He’s on the up and up…
He is her rock. He has a commanding presence, matched with the kindest eyes. She’s the spontaneous, rambunctious, playful one. They knew within four months of dating that they wanted to get married, but their families insisted they were too young, and so they’ve put it off for six years, keeping their relationship going across…
I first met David at the beginning of this year when I did group portraits of the San Francisco Guitar Quartet. This time, I met him down at the beautiful Santa Clara University campus for an individual headshot session. The Spanish style buildings, abundant greenery, and the beautiful Mission Church made for a wonderfully serene…
