Wells Fargo History has published one of the books that features images I shot for them in early 2010. The book has a wealth of information about US history, through the lens of Wells Fargo, of course, but the company's been around for so long, and been so central, it's a fascinating read. For example, the first Federal bank charter ever was granted to an ancestor of Wells Fargo Bank.
Most of the photos of three dimensional objects are mine. It's nice to see them in print.
Selections from new work, for a new client, at Kathleen Dughi Jeweler in Mill Valley. They do really nice stuff over there, and they're all super nice. Many carats. I think the larger diamonds in this ring are .5 to .75 carats, so...
I learned from Cairo at Kathleen Dughi that many stones these days are heat treated to intensify the color. Really? The stones weren't good enough before, in all their glitter and shine? We have to make them just a little better? She agreed, and Kathleen Dughi generally stays away from treated stones.
I wrote a post about copyright over on APA SF Blog.
High-end vinegars get high-end photography. The smaller bottle retails for about a hundred bucks. I cooked a little with it, but I think I didn't use enough. I have some cooking-with-vinegar education in front of me, I guess.
I have a lot of bottle photography education behind me though, so that's nice.
