As you are reading this, I’m on a plane flying to Chicago for the weekend! Grace and Geoffrey’s wedding day has arrived! So while I’m away, I invite you to browse my new living quarters in San Francisco. J and I worked very hard putting this place together, and I think it suites both of our dandy personalities extremely well. Don’t just stand there, come on in! (more…)

I.want.one. Yup, I’ve been on the hunt for a fun camera wardrobe change, and now the problem is picking a pattern! My dilemma is the color/pattern choice. I tend to wear mostly black or neutral colors when I shoot weddings so that I blend into the background. I’m thinking these colorful ones might not help :) BUT they are my fav (and strangely the color of my new living room)! Go check out their shops now and check out wrist straps for point & shoot cameras.

ps – it’s possible that a recent viewing of the SATC movie (stopped counting how many times) inspired me to seek these oh-so romantic pink fluffs above :)

Happy Monday, again! Wow, time is flying huh? Time for the 3rd segment of this fantastic guest blogging series from Lisa of Hello Designers called ‘Developing a Visual Vocabulary to Create Brand Consistency for Your Company: Be honest and Be You!’
Hello all! I have had great feedback on this series and hope that you will find this installment just as helpful and inspiring! Today I want to focus on how to create a visual vocabulary for your brand that you, in essence, can pick and choose from to create delightfully impacting and relevant marketing pieces. My goal is to highlight what you, as a client or a creative do-it-yourself entrepreneur, can do to make your brand memorable, beautiful and consistent, which will lead to customer loyalty and success.

“I’ve always been fascinated by pet photography, marveling at the exquisite photos some photographers can make of subjects who may be less than cooperative. To investigate the topic, I’ve rounded-up several pet photographers who have what I’d call a modern style. I’ll be interviewing each of them in a Q & A series. This first interview is with San Francisco-based photographer Edyta Szyszlo. Edyta is a Moderncat fan and you may have seen photos of her two moderncats Desher, an Abyssinian, and Boris, a Russian Blue, in the Moderncat gallery. Edyta currently focuses on portraits of people and pets, as well as wedding and product photography. Her background in fine art is obvious in the beautiful photos she captures.”
