Old Fashioned
Oh my.. Now I am just blushing… 2023 is starting off with a big win.. Our image of an iconic Old Fashioned was just awarded a Graphis Gold! Graphis is an institution among publications and it is a HUGE honor to be included in this years Annual.
I created this image with stylist Alice Arato (along with a few other cocktail images) and am bowled over by the numerous accolades it has garnered.

Last month I was Thrilled to find out that my personal project “Practice” had been honored yet again , this time by being included in the American Photographic Artists – San Francisco Chapter’s Juried Exhibition – “Something Personal”. Over 800 images were submitted and 100 were selected for the final exhibit. A multi-location opening night took place at several SF studios as well as a virtual component online. You can view the Top Winning Images as well as the slideshow of all of the selected photos here.
Thanks Much to APA-SF AND of course the generous jurors!!!
“Practice”
We were once again tapped with a couple Honorable Mentions in this years International Photography Awards. It is always such a privilege to be recognized in the company of so many great creators and in the midst of such stunning imagery!
One of the HM’s was a personal piece we just recently completed.. entitled “Practice” it is a backstage peek at a late 1800’s era tightrope walker practicing her routine, late at night in a secluded corner of the big top.
The other is a series / campaign we shot for the Newport Beach Film Festival entitled “Everyone Plays A Part” having fun with how folks, who are passionate about a certain character from a film, might start to take on that persona in the midst of everyday life… In Newport Beach of course.
Once again we are super grateful to the IPA’s and the judges for this recognition and hopefully you’ll get the opportunity to check out ALL of the winning images over at PhotoAwards.com !
I have of course heard of the Council on Aging. What was news to me until a few months ago was that the Southern California Council on Aging has, for the past few years, had an annual photo competition entitled Aging as Art. What a fantastic theme! A friend of mine who is in healthcare forwarded a link to coasc.org and alerted me to the competition for 2022. I opted to submit one of my favorite photos from my 14 Days in Great Britain Documentary Series. As with many competitions.. I submit.. assuming nothing, and move on. To my genuine surprise, last week I was notified that my image had been awarded Second Place in the Professional Category! It is ALWAYS thrilling to be recognized, and this one was particularly rewarding because of the theme and content.
Hop over and see all of the winning images that celebrate who and what we are as we get older and wiser!
