New Year, New Work!

We're looking forward to connecting and collaborating with you in this new year. Thank you to our wonderful collaborators and clients who continue to allow us to truly do what we love to do - to produce and create imagery through this photographic process.  Our resolution this year is to build relationships beyond the internet - get back to our roots of putting names with faces, hitting the pavement and rediscovering the value of a firm hand shake and hello, over "likes" on social media.  Let's connect - grab a coffee and talk shop in this new year. Build a dialogue that can evolve over time. We're in this for longevity - and have been blessed to do what we do since 2003. We're looking forward to seeing what 2015 brings and most of all looking forward to rediscovering old relationships and building new ones. Wishing you all the most prosperous new year.

Benefit Cosmetics

We're excited to share the release of a project we produced and shot back in June. We've been working with Benefit Cosmetics since 2009, but it isn't too often we get to work on a project that isn't your traditional beauty portrait. We took a break from mascara, eyebrows and lashes and we were able to create these scenarios and sets at our favorite studio in San Francisco, Left Space. Thanks to our amazing crew of stylists and art directors as well as our energetic cast of characters.

The year is nearing a close and the holidays are fast approaching - but, wait! We still have time to produce and shoot a project for you. In the meantime please check out more of our work from this project.

Fall is Here!

Yet another great collaboration with Active Family Magazine and these amazing Kids from JE Model Management.  It's nice to get back into doing some editorial - with monthly updates.  Most of the other projects we work on are for our advertising clients and the client is under NDA until months down the line and even then we forget to post about it.  Thanks for such an amazing crew and talent.  

And Production Paradise thanks for the feature!

Happy Holidays to you all!

Too School for Cool!

Or, Is it Too Cool for School? For some reason I think that song by Pink, Raise Your Glass - might have gotten stuck in our heads and mixed up the saying.

Now that summer is finally over - the kids are back at school and we can get back to business. Hope you all had a great vacation this summer. We've been working hard over here to bring you some new content. This new project for Active Family Magazine was shot in San Francisco for their Septemeber Issue. We love working with kids - they are so real and raw - genuine and no non-sense. It's exciting to see their different energies and always a challenge to manage them on a production. We thought this was a fun and proper project to share.
