AEPi 25th Anniversary Gala

AEPi at UC Berkeley just turned 25! Congratulations!

(p.s. Bet you didn't know I'm available to shoot events for student groups.... ) 

Boys Can Dance Too

I loved this young man dancing on Bancroft and Telegraph yesterday. So cool so young is impressive, ha ha :)

Boy in the Trees

Donny and I met up to take some portraits of each other for Nathan Yan's Photo Decal class. Assignment: portraits. :)

I'm loving the whimsical feel of the trees. Feels like childhood. :) 

And one that Donny Lavezzo took of me that I quite like. :)

Cute Puppies! (All is right in the world)

Puppies make me happy. 'Nuff said. :)

Bare Shoot: A Sort of Sneak Peak :) [but mostly just photos of a cute puppy; oops ;) ]

This is Bare Magazine. These are some shots from my shoot with them today. Expect a full review of Issue Seven when it comes out. With my photos in it. Yuppp, that's right. (:  

Make-up. Done by the lovely and talented Mary King. You rock, girlie!

Pretty pretty make-up brushes. (:

I. WANT.

Sigh. I love this for so many reasons: 1. The bracelet. Courtesy of Sway, it's beautiful beautiful beautiful. Sigh. 2. The fabric. I can't give any more away. Wait for Issue 7 of Bare to come out! :D 3. The colors all together in this frame--Sather Gate, the gold of the bracelet, the red of the fabric. 4. The memories. Okay. That's all. (: 

Dear Jonathan, 

Can you and I please do a shoot?! We can do whatever you want. You style and I shootl; I will shoot all day, everyday for you, as long as you keep up these ridiculously hot poses. And osmosis some of your style over to me. Ha ha. Coo? Coo. 

Love, Simone

And now, for the main attraction. This is Pip. As in Pipsqueak. So freakin' adorable. He gave me puppy kisses. Yayyy. (: 

My favorite. I can hear my puppy at home getting jealous. Sigh.

Simone had a wonderful day. And, in other news, I just bought a new lens. GAH. I CAN'T WAITTTT. yee. (: 

Cal Rugby v. Saint Mary's

Photos from my first rugby game last weekend. As I said on the field and again when I got home to anybody who would listen, rugby is quite possibly one of the most interesting sports ever played. Seriously. Check it.

P.S. Thinking about what makes a cool/interesting/quality artistic photo versus what makes a good newspaper/photojournalistic photo. Sometimes one photo can be both, sometimes it can't. See if you can pick out which ones are which. (:

P.P.S. Are you aware that Cal has the best rugby team in America? And pretty much has since forever ago? They are... glorious.

And, of course, always: go bearssss! 

Love this photo of a young fan. Wish he were wearing Cal gear though ... :/ (he was cheering for Cal though, so that's something :D )

Good work, coach! Happy retirement...  (:
