á la Bruschetta

July 26th, 2009

I had the opportunity to photograph one of the new dishes at Yia-Yia’s. Upon approval the image will be utilized as lead art in some new marketing materials. Though food photography is not my focus, I am certainly glad for the opportunity. Now, if I could just find a way to replicate smell via the web…hmmm. Grilled Crostini, warm mozzarella, oven roasted tomatoes, basil pesto and warm balsamic drizzle, oh so good!

Return to the Heavens

July 14th, 2009

Nearly seven years on the west coast, moons spent in intimate union with tides of destiny, left me bereft one life wonder; the Rocky Mountains. Exactly one month after I quit smoking I challenged Torreys Peak with Coda, Mia and some friends from work. The experience was electrifying. Home have I returned!

Party in Perigee

December 16th, 2008


On December 12, 2008 the Moon was in perigee, meaning it was at its closest point to earth in a 15 year cycle. It also meant it was 6% closer than average, and so 11% brighter! It was also the night of a certain Christmas Party for a certain bunch of news hounds on a certain boat in a certain harbor in Ventura. And like all full moons, it certainly brought about the wilder side of the night.

This plucky photog was on the scene, and though names are being withheld for the protection of those captured here, their stories will none the less shock and amaze you.

Join the FSCEPE (Family Style Clothing & Extras Potluck & Exchange) team!

December 14th, 2008

Perhaps a new tradition: the “Family Style Clothing & Extras Potluck & Exchange.” The idea was to exercise detachment and generosity by going through closets, holding only favorite items and bagging the rest. This was also encouraged for any “extras” one might have. Sort of a “white-elephant” centered more around truly useful items, not garbage.

Though no plastic gag gifts were present to set the atmosphere to “party”, good times ensued simply from the joy of trade, good food and the discovery of the perfect outfit combination!
