I want to go SO bad.
Faith, just pay for my ticket and I will gladly fly back.
Since I know everyone already, even the bride’s parents.
I will definitely be at the Seattle reception though.
Count on it.
Oh. God. People are getting married.
Is it a requirement that every park in San Francisco has to have an amazing view???
It was a good day for a photoshoot, that’s for sure.
Oh.
Bernal Heights Park = Dog Narnia
UGGHHHH!
I HATE going to Kirkland!
I had TWO cops follow me home.
LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!

Sometimes I feel like this needs to be done.
Especially to me lately.
It was a gorgeous night, to celebrate the dead.
A day where you honor the dead, but also celebrate being alive. Younger, I remember the small celebrations that would take place on the Day of the Dead in Nogales, Sonora, but that is nothing compared to how they celebrate it in San Francisco. While the holiday was a hybrid of European and Aztec philosophies, it maintains a native indigenous feel. I mostly remember the Pan De Muerto being DELICIOUS. Anyway, about 15,000 people were expected to show up to this celebration. While that fact alone is impressive, what impressed me the most was that people from all origins had gathered together to celebrate a part of my culture.
It was amazing.
I. Love. San Francisco.
I took SO many pictures and it was hard to choose, but my favorite pictures are after the link. Also my Flickr account has the whole gallery.
Halloween this year was, insane. Every year, I do participate on Halloween in some form or another, but not to this extent. Friday, we got tickets to this semi-huge Halloween party in the North Beach Area. By semi-huge I mean like 400 people. I only say semi because that is nothing compared to the Castro extravaganza that we saw on Saturday night. Still, this party on Friday was F-U-N. Tequila shots and a cover band that only plays 80’s music helped. Seriously, this band was so awesome that I want to book them for my sisters wedding in the future.
Saturday afternoon included a delicious hangover brunch in the Mission and passing out (literally) in Dolores Park and eating ice cream. Later that night, after some much needed R&R, we took a cab down to the Castro.
It was like a crazier Mardi Gras. And what is even crazier is that it is not as big as it used to be, but its still big enough that there needs to be 600 cops and firemen everywhere. So big that it was filled by Asian tourists just taking pictures of the debauchery.
Words can’t really explain it and I am too tired to write, so you will have to just look at pictures and be jealous you weren’t here this weekend.
The whole gallery is on my Flickr account (link on the right sidebar), but some of my favorites are…….
Hope everyone had as good a weekend as mine!!!
Pictures and updates to come soon.
P.S. – 80’s cover bands should be a requirement at every party from now on
Happy Halloween!!
As A Present I leave you with one of the most terrifying scenes ever.
Now go party! Especially you Klang! Happy Bday Buddy!
I miss Deborah and her silliness.
Like how she made me post something about her.
I instantly told her she would regret it.
China seems so long ago.
Such a great trip.
Lets go Back!
HAPPY VALLEY!!!!!
Very cruel…….Some people just don.t care for that kind of ride – Omid
HOO ZAH!
Yesterday I had my first client…..CRAZY SAUCE.
She contacted me wanting Headshots, not like the pictures above (I took those for my own enjoyment)
She was awesome, cool, young, starting her own business and living in NYC.
She was in San Francisco visiting friends since she went to SFSU.
It was a GORGEOUS day. San Francisco in October has been incrdible.
She put it best.
The sun is always out in San Francisco, except in the Summer.
Still editing her pictures, but I think most of them came out pretty good.
Some guy came and told us to move, and I was like “EXCUSE ME BITCH?”
Turns out they were filming a movie.
Alamo Square Park is GORGEOUS.
