Buster Posey has been a lot of things: Rookie of the Year, Comeback Player of the Year, Most Valuable Player and a two time World Series Champion. Despite all this, he has never had a walk-off… anything. Until now.
Friday night, Posey hit a homerun on a 3-2 count in the bottom of the ninth to defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers 2 to 1 and extend the Giants win streak to 4.
I had a fantastic assignment two days ago photographing the final shift of toll collectors at the Golden Gate Bridge. California is replacing toll collectors with a full automated system which takes a picture of your license plate and sends you a bill.
Many of the people who were assigned the final shift at the bridge have been on the job for 20 years or more. Below, Marsha Bardhorst begins the last shift of her 19-year career taking cash tolls.
The Boy Scouts of America has been in the news a lot recently, and rightfully so. Let’s hope the Boy Scouts of America HQ get’s its stuff together real quick. While some adult scout leaders have wasted time not being brave, friendly, kind or the rest of the Scout Law, Troop 14 got busy doing real scout stuff this past weekend: snow camping.
I love snow camping. It is one of the most outdoorsman activities you can do. Telling a friend I went snow camping gets the best reaction. “You camped where??”
It has been super long since my last post, but I was very fortunate to travel to Singapore to shoot a wedding in January. Ever since I got back I’ve been busy shooting or editing. Now I am finally going back into my past few months of work and pulling things out to share with you on this blog.
I feel like portraits are becoming more and more of my editorial assignments. Which is odd because I don’t think of myself as a portrait photographer, nor do I advertise myself as one. Below are images from a shoot with an author from New York who wrote a novel taking place in the NYC graffiti world.
The best place for graffiti in San Francisco are the alley ways of the Mission district. Some of the murals on the garage doors are very impressive. If you haven’t seen them, taken the time to check them out after getting a burrito on Valencia Street. Either way just get a burrito. Well worth it.
I was recently assigned to photograph the renovation progress at the old Pacific Telephone Building in downtown San Francisco. It is really an incredible building which has been used for so many different purposes over its life. Originally for offices, at one point the building was more machine than man, housing a ton of telecommunications equipment in its ornate exterior.
Now the iconic 1920’s skyscraper is being renovated by a new owner who will rent it out for office space when it is completed in 9 months.
