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:

Danielle and Gregg got married at the Trentadue Winery, a Sonoma County winery in Alexander Valley. They had an elegant and traditional Jewish wedding.

I really loved how their photos came out. Here are 7 of my favorites.
