Last weekend we had some delightful young gents in the studio for a band photo. Lacking both a brick wall and train tracks we put them in front of various backdrops I had in and near the studio. If you like Gypsy Jazz, check them out here, here and here.

Fast Food Unwrapped – Ongoing Project

admin — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 00:13:11 +0000

I grew up in a small town in the middle of Iowa. In this town I watched fast food used as a means to placate screaming children – myself included. These high calorie foods are now a source of comfort for adults who instill the same bad habits in their children. This epidemic is sending this country’s weight up and health down.

As a photographer there’s not allot I can do except single out a few of the various gross offenders and present them in all their glory. So here they are the highest calorie single entrée item from the big chains. Keep in mind this is an ongoing project and more will be added later.

If you haven’t had one of these yet you really owe it to yourself to find them.

Currently I’m sifting through my archives and posting images that I find interesting for some reason. I hope you’ll find them interesting too.

Miss Mission Valley

Miss Mission Valley, Katie Pastore, was in need of some photos for online social networking (and actual in person networking for that matter). So I was more than happy to oblige. Right now she has her sights set on Miss California Teen 2011. So if you’d like to sponsor her here’s how.

The lovely miss Marie Haddad was in need of some publicity shots for her website and print materials. I was happy to oblige. If you didn’t know she’s a piano player/songwriter/singer. But then maybe the photos kinda gave that away.

Spenser

There’s this guy (I’m pretty sure his name is Spenser ) in the neighborhood who makes these amazing wire sculptures. He then hangs them on various signs, light posts, and power lines for display. I’m all in favor of public art but apparently urban corps is not. They have been systematically removing the pieces one by one. It is my job – nay – duty to document them before they are defiled. This is by no means a complete archive.

Brian Imoto

These photos were taken as actor’s headshots. Now – I’m not gonna say he got the part because of me but I will say that you can catch Brian in “Into the Woods” at the Onstage Playhouse in Chula Vista.

Cardamom Bakery

If you’ve ever been to the Walkabout here at the mCm Gallery then you’ve probably had one of Joanne’s red velvet cupcakes. And if you’ve ever had said cupcake you’d remember because they’re good. Damn good. Cardamom is a family business in North Park – San Diego that is. See, I do get out of my area once in a while.

Halcyon Tea

I have the honor and distinction of being the in-house photographer for Halcyon Tea. Well, not really but almost. They are our most auspicious neighbors here in South Park and what tea they have.
