#bringbacklivemusic - Regency Ballroom
27 Dec 2020
On Christmas Day I took a drive through San Francisco visiting all of the music venues that, until March 9, 2020, I’d be at every week. It has been nine months since I have been to a live show. As much as I miss live arts I also miss the…

Pandemic Portrait Project
02 Aug 2020
Hey everyone! Happy Saturday. We’ve been stuck in pandemic mode since March. Some of you longer. In mid-February I was in London and things were starting to get weird. Lots of conversations in the pubs about what the COVID-19 was and what was going to happen. Seems like we’re having…

Joshua Tree
05 Jun 2020
After months in hibernation waiting for whatever next crazy thing will strike 2020, I decided to skip town and social distance in south-eastern California. Road trips are my favorite way to get away. I take at least one two-week multi-state trip every fall. We’ll see what happens this year. But…

The Long and Winding Road
31 Mar 2020
Welcome to Spring in 2020. Not quite what anyone planned. I was in India in early February and landed in London around the 10th. Storm Ciara was kicking and making the weather very England-ish. Just then we started hearing serious things about this crazy virus moving its way out of…

“New” gear can be fun
24 Feb 2020
There are times we get into a rut. It can happen in anything we do all the time. For me over the last year it has been photography. I did so many more shoots last year that I got to the point where I didn’t want to see my camera…

Happy Holidays!

The end of the year has come. I am done shooting shows in 2019. This was a record year for me. 67 shows this year up from 28 last year. Much of those were for the Mountain Winery in Saratoga California. They brought me on as their first in-house concert…

Australian band Last Dinosaurs made their US debut on Friday night at Slims in San Francisco. They rocked the sold out house from start to finish. The crowd was totally enthralled and focused for the entire set. If this show was any indication as to what they will do form…

Woop-woop! That’s the sound of the beast!
08 Apr 2019
The most fun show of the year so far! A double-header with Jahi from Public Enemy and KRS-One. The sold out show at Slims in San Francisco was full of energy after a 90-minute set by DJ William Stokes. After a brief tribute to Nipsey Hussle, he played hit after…

Ja Rule and Ashanti
19 Feb 2019
I was at The Warfield in San Francisco on Sunday evening to shoot a stop on Ja Rule and Ashanti’s current tour. They both looked and sounded really good. It could almost have been a show from the early 2000’s. They performed together and individually mixing their hits together for…

February Fun
11 Feb 2019
February is a fun month for shows. Saturday night I was at the Great American Music Hall for a Four Tet show. Was completely unique experience. The hall is a traditional (and very beautiful) early 20th century theater. The “stage” was a raised platform in the center of the floor…

Halloween Weekend in San Francisco
29 Oct 2018
Halloween is San Francisco turned to 11. All of the fun people pop out and all of the oddballs rise up to meet them. It’s like a Tarantino adaptation of a Hunter S. Thompson story. I love it! I shot two shows this weekend. The first was Brian Fallon and…

It has been a long time since I posted anything. It has been a busy couple of months. Lots of travel and a few shows. I just posted photos from EKALI and PRETTYMUCH. Both shows were sold out and a blast. The crowds at each were different but so enthusiastic…

Willie Nelson
07 Aug 2018
A bucket list show. Willie Nelson is someone I have wanted to see for years. Seems like when he was in town, I was not. The weather last night in Saratoga was amazing. The venue, The Mountain Winery, is a great place for a show like this. Allison Krauss opened…
