Bantam is a relatively new restaurant on Fair Ave. on the West side of Santa Cruz off Mission. It’s got a decidedly cool atmosphere with its distressed/recycled wood and artistic touches like the enormous airplane propeller-style fan.

And of course, those antler chandeliers speak for themselves… Chef Carlo whipped up some of their specialty dishes […]

Bob wrote a book about solar energy with an emphasis on the far-forward view of the technology; I swear we talked more about this topic than we spent time taking photos! Bob contacted per his marketing agent’s request for a “smart, approachable” photo for the bio. We met at his home in the Santa Cruz mountains, and the first thing I did […]

This law firm is redesigning their website, so the design team needed some fresh content to work into things. It was a drizzly, yucky December morning, so luckily most of what we wanted to accomplish was indoors. We started with everyone’s favorites – headshots!
