Lensbaby Love

2008-03-26T11:50:00.001-07:00

Weddings needed!

2008-03-19T13:26:00.000-07:00

I have never been good at talking myself up. And in the end, it's the work that really speaks about who the photographer is. Currently I'm trying to find weddings to photograph. While my eye is rather good, there are an amazing amount of fantastic photographers in the Bay Area. It's a bit scary. You have established and not so established photographers who all have good eyes. How do you

Models Needed!

2008-01-30T10:27:00.000-08:00
