SubtleSkeptics ft. Shine: Blue Jeans (Lana Del Rey Cover)
I’ve shot a few videos for my brother’s music covers, but this is probably my favorite one. For this cover of Lana Del Rey’s Blue Jeans, SubtleSkeptics rented out a practice studio in Los Angeles, borrowed a cello and invited the talented Shine Fu (yes, that is her real name) to provide her wonderful vocals for the track. I personally think the cello really goes well with the song and I actually preferred Shine’s voice over Lana’s. Please take a moment to watch it and share it on FB, Twitter,... Read The Rest →
Tanya and Surya: Golden Gate Park Engagement Session
When Tanya and Surya first met at a friend’s party, they spent the night together…Tanya in her bed, and Surya on the couch. C’mon people, this is a PG movie. As the story would go, Tanya’s roommate had invited Surya to her party in hopes of introducing the pair. Her plan worked and the next day, the two had lunch together. The rest, as they say, is history. For their engagement session, we braved the cold and explored Golden Gate Park. Weather forecast said 73 and sunny. Actual weather was... Read The Rest →
Aine and James: University Club San Francisco Wedding
I love all things Irish. Leprechauns. Guinness. Meat and Potatoes. I even know the first six lines of the country’s national anthem in Gaelic. So when Aine and James asked if I would shoot their wedding, I only had one question before saying yes: “Will you be dancing to the Dropkick Murphys?” Aine and James celebrated at the San Francisco University Club with friends and family flying in from as far as Ireland and Scotland. They themselves flew in from New York for the big day. I took a cab... Read The Rest →
Clare and Jason: SF City Hall Wedding
A lot of people say they love San Francisco, but every so often you get a stronger confirmation that you live in an awesome city. Of all the places where a couple can fly to for a wedding, Clare and Jason chose to come to SF to get married at City Hall. And why not. The building is gorgeous, the restaurant scene is a foodie’s paradise, and the weather is…well, the weather is unpredictable, but if you’ve saved up enough karma points for your wedding day, then it can be...

Quynh and Hiep: Family Portraits
This was a first for me. I met with Quynh, her husband Hiep and their beautiful baby Ella at the Bronx Botanical Garden in New York for a family shoot. With babies, the best you can do ahead of a shoot is to make sure they are well-rested, well-fed and well-pooped. And then you hope that they still don’t need more sleep, another bottle, or a diaper change. About 10 minutes into the shoot, Ella decided she wanted more milk and then about an hour into the shoot, she was... Read The Rest →
