Event photography for AGS in loud and lively Austin, Texas. Attendees enjoyed engaging speeches and relaxed chats under the oak trees. For lunch, guests feasted on tasty barbeque from the well-known Terry Black’s BBQ, a highlight of the day. The atmosphere was enhanced by live music from talented local artists as the sun set. The evening ended with drinks by the campfire, enjoying delicious s'mores under the stars.

ERIC + KATIE | SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER | SAUSALITO COUPLES SHOOT

couples, portrait

Eric and Katie reached out to help commemorate an elopement during their visit to Sausalito. This couple was so easy going and fun to be around and never flinched whenever I gave them silly things to do as we adventured from the Golden Gate Market, down Bridgeway through downtown and ending in the Sausalito Yacht Harbor. Loved the range of romantic, silly and fun photos that we were able to capture together. A total blast was had. Enjoy!

HEAVYBIT PORTAITS I | SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER | SAN FRANCISCO PORTRAITS

portrait

Heavybit has always been a treat to work with, but germane to this post is that they care about aesthetic and have great taste. That goes along with them wanting awesome portrait work for their speakers of the numerous events that they throw. I pride myself with making people feel comfortable and special when I have them in front of my camera. Here’s a series of portraits I’ve taken for them over the years highlighting that.

DAVID & STEPHANIE | SAN FRANCISCO CONSERVATORY OF FLOWERS | ENGAGEMENT

engagement, portrait

David reached out to me wanting to get an engagement proposal documented live. High stress material for all involved. Many props to David and his cojones for going for it. He shot and he hit nothing but net. Stephanie was joyous. Once I was unveiled to both parties we kept it pretty mellow, sweet and romantic as we explored the Conservatory of Flowers and then a mini adventure in the surrounding area of the Golden Gate Park. Got lots of lovely shots of these two cuties and a few solid shots of the viridescent plant life in the conservatory.

UNITE HERE - TAKE BACK THE SENATE | ATLANTA PHOTOGRAPHER | STARLIGHT DRIVE-IN THEATRE CAMPAIGN RALLY EVENT

event, portrait

Over 1000 Unite Here canvassers and allies convened for a car rally at the Starlight Drive-in inside Atlanta in support of Ossoff and Warnock for the two Georgia U.S. Senate seats. To witness thousands of cars and rally-goers honking and being lively during a pandemic and doing it safely is a powerful image forever imprinted in my mind. Union members provided the entertainment and hyped the crowd prior to the main event, Reverend Warnock bringing the heat on why it matters that he be elected.

UNITE HERE - TAKE BACK THE SENATE | ATLANTA PHOTOGRAPHER | TURNER FIELD CAMPAIGN RALLY EVENT

event, portrait

I was beyond honored to have had the opportunity to photograph this Unite Here campaign rally in Atlanta to help elect Jon Ossoff and Reverend Raphael Warnock to the 2 U.S. Senate seats in Georgia. Over 500 political canvassers assembled in a show of force of their collective power while musicians, local politicians and speakers, such as Nsé Ufot of the New Georgia Project, helped provide inspiration and focus to why the runoff election mattered. You can definitely feel the strength and beauty of all the rally-goers spirits in this imagery. Enjoy.

A+A+R+A | SAN FRANCISCO PHOTOGRAPHER | CRISSY FIELD FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY

I rose with the sun at Crissy Field and saw paddlings and flocks of migratory birds pushing on towards their nesting grounds. Ashley and her adorable family came just after most of the birds departure, but just when the golden and amber tones of the solar rays touched us lightly. We walked around, and took in the sights and captured some adorableness. Enjoy.
