My Heart and Mind are ready again....

I have been longing for something and I've been toiling over this...what is it? It came to me in the last few days, after a few conversations with people I care and respect...I NEED FILM. I need the technical, hands on, completely personal feeling it gives me and my work. This is my art. This is how I say what I don't have the words to say....It's time to go there again....here are some that I love...that are from years past...but I still love. Time to make more.

Avi and Friends

Some fun in the studio. They were playing movie stars...yikes.

Egg - www.eggmusic.net

Egg. www.eggmusic.net. I've written about these guys before, my friend Steve is the drummer for them. They are a super fun "kindie rock" band. They are based in Los Angeles, and so they flew me down there this past weekend to do some photos for their upcoming new website look...here is a sneak peek at a few of the photos.... Also, they will playing up in San Francisco on April 25, at Recess Urban Recreation. www.recessurbanrecreation.com

Rachel - The FAB Personal Chef / Caterer

Rachel's cooking is awesome. Let's start there. Last week I went over to her place to do a trade with her. I photograph her amazing dishes for her blog, rjsteiger.blogspot.com, and I get to walk away with food for my family! These photos are all done in her beautiful kitchen in San Francisco. All totally healthy and yummy meals. And to take a quote from her blog, " I can make your life easier by shopping, cooking & delivering meals tailored to meet your needs." Trust me, your life will be made MUCH easier if you have her helping out....just in the few days of my family eating the meals she's prepared, I've actually had time to sit down and help Isaac with his homework, read more than 4 minutes of book time before bedtime, AND actually cram in a show or two on the boob toob.

Anyway, here are a few photos from our day last week, and her yumilicious creations.
Again, here is the link to her blog, and you can find her contact info there too:
