Team Hoop!

Our Sam has joined a terrific basketball club called “Team Hoop” based in San Bruno, CA. It is an inspiring group of motivating people who seem to get great results from their boys and girls.

Their first official games of the year were today in Morgan Hill, and Sam’s 8th grade team went 2-0, despite a grueling, physical and nail-biting second game against a formidable opponent.

I’ve posted a gallery of photos from the first game here on my website. Check ’em out if you’re interested.

Go Team Hoop! :)

A breastfeeding photoshoot

Well, you’ll just have to trust me on this one, but I did an extensive photoshoot today for babycenter which covered a whole bunch of their breastfeeding products. Our model and her daughter were awesome, and we all were thrilled with the photos we got. I spent quite a bit of time working on the setup and the lighting, and I think it worked well, don’t you?

This was actually the “comp” I showed the art director to explain the setup. She just about busted a gut.

My niece the supermodel

This week’s photoshoot featured fashions for pregnant moms, t-shirts and other stuff for new dads and grandfathers, a bra fit guide for new moms, and a whole mess o’ really cute baby clothes.

And one of our star models was none other than my darling niece Anna. The little pipsqueak charmed everybody in my studio with her good nature, her great “looks”, and her wonderful results. I’m not kidding when I say this kid has talent.

We Are In Business

We had a very, very busy day yesterday, but it was also very, very successful. We had a terrific crew (as usual!), our clients were helpful and positive, and our models were professional, beautiful, and endlessly patient. Today’s schedule calls for mostly kids and dads, so it’ll be entirely different approach, but hopefully every bit as successful.

As usual, kudos to Sara and Susie for your awesome efforts.

Ready for our first photo shoot

The boxes are (a little) unpacked, the gear is (mostly) organized, the studio is (somewhat) painted, the network is (kinda) up, and I’m (sorta) ready to rock and roll! But truth be told, were it not for all the hard work by Sara and Susie, I’d be dead meat right about now. I feel pretty good about opening our doors officially for the first studio shoot tomorrow morning.

Susie has racked the garments and ready or not, it’s show time.
