Camp Lune De Miel


At the wedding our friends Yasha and Carrie said something like, "why don't you come to France for your honeymoon?" We said, ok. Deep in the heart of France (about 2 hours west of Lyon) in the Auvergne, is a colony of expats, artists, musicians, builders, and artisans who subsist on the best cheeses, wines, sausages, and good cheer that life has to offer. It was the perfect place for a honeymoon because we got a chance to see a way of life that we aspired to join....

Married – April 20th, 2012



Laurine said yes and we eloped - throwing a surprise wedding at the restaurant Serpentine where we had our first date.

Thanks to Maker Unknown for the photographs (more to follow......)

Panoramics


 I've been experimenting with panoramic photographs. I think this format is going to be very well suited for websites.

Maker Unknown



There have been a few times recently when I'm interviewing a subject for a film and they say something that is so intuitive and effortless that it surprises both of us and the phrase or 'catch-line' sticks. The subject of this film, Paul Kirchner, was discussing his liquor cabinet and in a fit of clarity said, "This is that valuable - I'll die - if someone assures me it'll be in the MOMA under 'Maker Unknown' – early 2000's Maker Unknown......." I would definitely agree that his work does belong in MOMA. I decided to name the movie, "Maker Unknown" and Paul has been using the line ever-since. Here is his website: http://cargocollective.com/makerunknown

The Kids Next Door


We've been watching these kids grow up for the past 6 years. I would reckon that these kids are the heart and soul of San Francisco, and these photographs represent what I love about photography.

House Boat Transfer Across SF, BAY


Its not every day you get to follow a 200,000 pound house-boat on its path home – from Sausalito to San Francisco – passing the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and then the Bay Bridge. This was just about the most dramatic entrance I've ever made into San Francisco thanks to a very cooperative chase-boat (piloted by Cap'n George) and some incredible weather. The good news is the boat floats and Sarah and Kimo are ready to start a new home together (literally.) The only bad news is that I forgot the bloody mary mix.

Here's the story of the house-boat's first few chapters from the seafaring owners: http://kimoandsarahbuildahouseboat.com/blog/
