It has been a while since I last posted on my blog, so I need to catch up on all the great shoots and travels I’ve been on, over the past month.   This shoot with Dana and Joni took place in late March.  They are a great couple, and have an electrifying chemistry between the two of them. The shoot took place a bit after 5pm in downtown San Francisco, with very little sunlight left. I had my lovely assistant, Olya, help me with the lights, which are mandatory for shooting after dark. We strolled down Grant Street, through China Town, to North Beach, coming back to Belden Place. We even managed to make our way into an apartment building in China Town for a cool balcony shot. Unfortunately, the conditions of the fire escape made it dangerous to get outside, so we kept going. We got to photograph underneath one of my favorite art installations in the city, “Language of Birds“, by Brian Goggins and Dorka Keen.

I was interviewed by a writer for the SF Examiner a little while ago, and the article just got published. It mailnly focuses on my music photography and my approach. I am very excited to have this honor. The article link is bellow:

This couple turned out to be pretty fun as they warmed up to my unobtrusive style of shooting. Initialy I had to give them specific instructions on how to pose, and I had to remind them to be patient. After making a wine pitstop at a North Beach coffee shop things got a lot better. Here is the first batch from the day.
