Outside In 4 food cart madness
Pork belly sliders, check… Fries with mysterious fowl meat and cheese bits, check… creme brulee, check… AND chicken adobo, check. Yes a few of my foodie friends and I stuffed ourselves silly at Heart wine bar in the Mission. Food carts galore were packed into the loungey spot. Those featured were the infamous Creme Brulee Cart, […]
Keith Elam, aka Guru
It’s been a few days since the Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal (Guru) has passed away. And while I never met the man, or even saw him perform, I’ve been a huge fan of Guru and DJ Premier since Daily Operation and onward. And it was through Guru’s solo projects (Jazzmatazz) that pioneered the Jazz and […]

Austin to Syracuse to NYC
I spent the last week flying all over the place checking out graduate programs I’d been accepted to. First Austin which consisted of a whole lot of drinking and eating courtesy of Dan (former manager Poleng Lounge, RIP) over at Parkside. Wine, beer, raw bar, oysters, crab cakes… you name it, we had it. Everything […]
The Good Foot weekly jump-off at SOM.
Check out some pics from my longtime SF State buddies Distortion2Static’s weekly party The Good Foot at the new Mission district hot spot, SOM. Now you might recognize this location as the old Pink, but SOM. has completely renovated the place and it looks fantastic. Big ups to Hakobo and others for the overhaul. If […]
SFIAAFF aka longest acronym festival wrapped up
After a long week of shooting q&as, parties, after parties, and galas, my work at the 28th annual San Francisco Asian American Film Festival is done! I had a lot of fun this year, and felt like I captured a wide variety of shots. The last weekend of the festival featured my hometown of San […]
SFIAAFF 2010 days 2-4 and everything in between
Its been a crazy and fun few days out shooting all over the City for the San Francisco International Film Festival. I’ve been to almost all of the parties/afterpartys, a few of the movies (mostly just the q&as) and even saw a bunch of dudes in Bruce Lee Game of Death outfits. The festival isn’t […]

SFIAAFF coming in March
Don’t miss out on this year’s San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival (yeah, hella long title) beginning in early march. One of the films I’m definitely going to go see is Au Revoir Taipei, set in my birthplace, Taiwan. I shot the launch party for this year’s festival at 111 Minna. For the rest of […]

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of… ok sorry the Jay-Z and Alicia Keys song is annoying me now, so I’ll save all that and give you some pics from my time in NYC. For more check out my flickr set of my wanderings in NYC.
just kickin’ it
Found these shots of my little nephew’s team playing soccer. I Thought these turned out ok for shooting about half the game, and not having a super long lens. These were shot with a Canon 70-200 2.8L on my trusty Canon 40D. Soccer is pretty hard to shoot, all the action tends to be in […]
