Billie Jean King at the Esurance Tennis Classic Charity Gala at the Osher Jewish Community Center in San Rafael

I was the event photographer for the Esurance Tennis Classic Charity Gala at the Osher Jewish Community Center in San Rafael. They were raising money for To Celebrate Life Breast Cancer Foundation, Us Too Prostate Cancer Education and Support, and Youth Tennis Advantage. In attendance were some tennis celebrities, including Billie Jean King, Pat Cash, and Anna Kournikova.

Here are some of my favorite photos from the event.

Girls Inc asked me to shoot photos of their 2010 fund raising luncheon this year. I was happy to do so. I have a daughter, and I’m very supportive of the work that Girls Inc does.

The Luncheon was a smashing success. It was in the pavilion at Scott’s Restaurant in Jack London Square. (You can see the background looks like tent material, that’s the pavilion for you.)

1 year old girl dancing at a 60th birthday party in San Diego California

This past weekend, my I flew down to San Diego to shoot a 60th birthday party. With the trip south, I’m a bit behind on my blogging, but I wanted to get this photo up ASAP.

The subject of the photo is just over 1 year old. She was dancing to live music.

I’d also like to take a minute here to offer a shout out to a buddy of mine. Robert is a photographer and videographer whom I’ve known since I was still shooting film.

He is now running a website called Your Bridal Planner. It is a great place to go to learn how to hire a wedding photographer

Photos from EFF benefit Geek Reading: Cory Doctorow's 'For the Win'"

Yesterday, the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) hosted a talk by science fiction author Cory Doctorow. He gave an inspiring talk about how over enforcement of copyright could kill the freedoms we have on the internet. That might be a slightly glib summary. It is late.

The full audio of the talk is here:

I was the photographer for the event.

I got a nice shout-out from Cory here:
