Morning Photo Walk around Downtown City Park in Paso Robles California
I found myself in Paso Robles, California in walking distance to Downtown City Park. I took my camera in the cooler morning time around this park enjoying for the first time in a long time a peaceful photo walk just making photos of things I found interesting. This led me to making photos of the structures in the park itself, including a Carnegie Library turned museum, various flowers and greenery, as well as some unique features along the streets around the park. If you visit Paso Robles, this park is even nicer at night when strings of lights dangle from the trees, and on Thursday evenings in the summer there is live music.

First headshot shoot in the new Pacific Grove photo studio!!
When I got a call from Ashley about a headshot session within a couple of days, normally I would say yes, no problem. But! I had just started to move into a new photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California. I did have all the lighting and equipment needed to make a headshot already in the studio, but also a ton of other stuff too scattered all over the place. So I said as long as you do not mind a bit of a mess, and the smell of fresh paint, then I am available. As you can see, you would never know what things were like by seeing the end result of Ashley’s headshots! Be sure and check out the BTS shot below to see what it looked like outside of the camera’s view. Thank you Ashley for your patience and being a great first client in my new studio!
Making product photography shots of wine bottles in Pacific Grove
Jeff of Tamayo Wines brought several bottles of wine to my photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California to have professional product photos made for use on his website. I used a light cone with two continues lights and shot on a reflective black acrylic base, even though the client wanted the photos edited and delivered on just a transparent background. These kinds of product shoots are always a fun challenge to aim for as much consistency as possible between bottle shots, allowing for variation in bottle size and glass color. Thank you Jeff for choosing me as your product photographer!
Sunset Fine Art Photography of Bird Rock along 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach
This April evening out at Bird Rock on 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach, California was a rare to the horizon sunset view. I took just my Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM lens, for a different perspective from the typical wide sunset shots. As I was letting the sun go down, I photographed these small flowers first (see the photo story). Many large rocks just off shore in this area function as bird rookeries, so I wonder why this one gets the distinction as bird rock? Maybe it was the first to be named so? As you can see in the background of some of the photos, there are lots of birds that do not get to live this close to where they go hunting during the day and have to fly further down the coastline. How did these birds get to be so lucky? All questions I ask myself!
