It’s all in the details…

I met with Mike (the owner of Le Papillon in San Jose) today to get some fresh interiors of his restaurant. He wanted detail shots that give visitors to his website the feel for the place without doing the customary “room” shots. I thought it was a good chance to use the 50mm/1.4 and 85mm/1.4 […]

Mary Ann Dach – Flight Instructor

The Wave did a story recently on learning to fly… I met up with Mary Ann Dach, a flight instructor down at Magnum Aviation in San Martin. She was super-nice, although a little nervous in front of my big camera. I encouraged her to throw on her large, dark aviator glasses after which she seemed […]

The Plumed Horse, Saratoga

I can’t believe I’ve never checked this place out before. It’s pretty unassuming from the outside, but the interior is amazing, and the see-thru wine cellar is incredibly unique! Here’s a few photos from the gallery.

State of Grace Tattoo

Visited a South San Jose tattoo parlor today. I don’t have any, but I can definitely respect the artwork going on here. The people are fascinating and it was fun to watch & photograph. Here’s a few from the gallery below.

Wine Cellar, Los Gatos

Shot some interiors/exteriors and dishes at Wine Cellar today. The sister/brother owners (Lisa & Steve) are super-nice & very accommodating. I ate the tuna tartar (not pictured) as it’s just so dang tasty! The rest of the shots are here. On the right is Steve, one of the owners. I love the color in this […]

Pampas Churrascaria Prepares to Open in Palo Alto

Pampas, a Brazilian Churrascaria-style restaurant is about to open in Palo Alto. The owners have done an amazing job with the space, creating a high-end atmosphere but intended to be “family-friendly” and casual. They even have portable DVD players to distract their younger customers. For more photos, check out these galleries: interiors, headshots, and details. […]

Wedding: Sarah & Matt – April 20, 2008

As a progressive, contemporary wedding photographer shooting in the digital age, it can be overwhelming to come back from a long day’s shooting with the daunting task of processing a couple thousand photos ahead of you. But if I wait a couple days before sitting down at the computer, it can easily become a week, […]

C’mon, Your Mom Deserves an Omelet

Josiah’s latest installment in The Wave Magazine is a “how to” picture-story describing the making of the perfect “1 minute” french-style omelet that you can treat your dearly beloved to this Mother’s Day. Here’s a few pics from the whole session. Eggs, arguably the most important ingredient in an omelet. On a side-note, Josiah says […]

Nikon D300 gets a Big Brother – The D3!

OK, call me a gadget geek, that’s fine (and totally true). Today good ol’ Brown delivered my much anticipated D3 camera body – Nikon’s current flagship full frame (FX) camera. I won’t go into too many details about what makes this camera so special, but its ability to capture almost noise-free images in low-light situations […]

Sugar, Butter Flour Take Two

OK, so even I don’t always get it right the first time (ha ha). Mental note: don’t shoot light objects on white backgrounds. Clients will not be happy. With that said, here’s a few outtakes from the second shoot.

Roux the Day!

Okay…so that’s a totally cheesy title, but Roux Louisiana Kitchen in Santana Row (San Jose, CA) is a pretty fantastic fancy pants restaurant. Featuring southern-style cuisine, it’s more comfort than calorie-conscious food, but you should know that from the name. The interior is stunning and the food is original and quite tasty, as I can […]

Sugar Butter Flour…Oh, My!

Irit & her husband, the owners of Sugar Butter Flour (originally in Sunnyvale and now also at the Pruneyard in Campbell), hired me to shoot their entire line of baked goods, candies, etc. for their website. Having tasted the goods I can highly recommend them to anyone. They even have fancy cakes! Yup, that’s a […]

Five Branches University, Santa Cruz

I had the pleasure of shooting the new promotional photos for Five Branches University. We spent all day in Santa Cruz going through our extensive shot list for the day’s worth of work. All the students and staff were very amiable and open to being in the photos, which says a lot for the Santa […]

Ocean Blue Sushi Club, Santa Clara

This is one of those hidden gems…a place stuck in a strip mall environment with rules that prevent outside upgrading…but once you go inside it’s simply stunning! I haven’t tried the food yet, but if they put half the effort into the cuisine as they did into the interior design, well… Outside, nothing special. Inside, […]

Junnoon, Palo Alto

Junnoon wanted to freshen up their photo archive so they kindly called on my services for new interiors, headshots, details, food, cocktails, etc. I spent about 3.5 hours over two days to complete the project. There’s so much going on in the well-designed interior that it’s a joy to shoot in. The lighting, the decor, […]
