Blog Construction Zone


As you may notice, the blog is currently undergoing some design construction (non-branded colors, fonts, layouts, etc). I’ve been hearing from many that the comments section wasn’t working (on the previous design) as well a lot feedback on functionality — i.e., the header and other sections not opening, or looking “quite funky.”

So, the design will be swithing back and forth the next few days as I get everything ironed out and running smoothly. Thanks to those that have sent me e-mails about the design problems, and thanks to all for hanging in there with me.

Forgotten Images

I’ve “re-discovered” a 2007 hard drive full of raw images - many of which I quickly backed-up, with hopes of returning and spending time with them. Well, it appears the images quickly accumulated, and my time didn’t keep pace. Thankfully, I downloaded and backed-up, knowing they’d be patiently awaiting some post-production love.

I’m bringing some of these new favorites “back to life” here on the blog.

Make it a great day.

This photograph…it’s technically imperfect in some ways…but I like looking at it.

Have a great day!

Oscar De La Hoya vs Steve Forbes

My brother-in-law Dave is in town, so we headed out to the Home Depot Center last night to enjoy the Oscar De La Hoya/Steve Forbes bout. Dave grabbed this awesome picture of the HBO crew (we were up and close and personal).

Our post-fight agenda included some good eats and 747-watching at the Tom Bradley terminal at LAX.

Derek Shapton - Photographer

Thanks to Heather Morton (art buyer blog), I recently discovered the work of Derek Shapton. My favorites include his people images, along with his documentary and editorial work.

Derek’s most recent personal/fine art project, ‘Here,” takes him back to his childhood stomping grounds.

In his words, “For the past year, I have been revisiting and photographing the locations of vivid early memories, ranging from the sidewalk in front of my childhood house to the park I used to play in to the former location of the pool where I first learned to swim. The images in Here are selections from this ongoing exploration.”

“The series had its genesis as I played with my two and a half year old son. His awareness and understanding of the world is developing incredibly quickly, and it occurred to me that my earliest recollections are from when I was just a little older than he is.”

Derek is an inspiration. Think about what he says at the 2:00 mark on the video below (so true). I dig his work…do you?

Engagement Shoot - Laguna Beach

I had such a blast on this recent engagement shoot with Amber and Ben. These two are such a joy to work with, and I can’t wait for their wedding in July — it’s going to be spectacular.

Thank you Amber and Ben for your enthusiasm, and appreciation for the value of photography. I feel so blessed to be your photographer.

For my blog readers, check-out Amber (and her twin sister) redefining the softball industry by inspiring and teaching girls of all ages with customized clinics at Twin Pitch Softball. And then stop by the Pony website to check-out Ben’s work as head of marketing — click on Pony TV to see Pony’s new “Back in the Game” spots…brilliant work!

I could be a just a tad biased, but Kai seems to be getting cuter every day…

Freeman Patterson on “The Candid Frame”

I’ve long admired the work of photographer Freeman Patterson. So, I was especially thrilled to learn that Ibarionex Perello scored an interview with Freeman for his “The Candid Frame” podcast. If you haven’t yet discovered The Candid Frame, be sure to check it out (Ibarionex has logged 50+ interview-style episodes with an assortment of amazing photographers).
