Party at Sabine and Peter’s home last night.

You know me: on my bike, camera slung over my shoulder, looking for the shot, and yes- I talk to strangers.

Especially when they have a great look.

Onward! Mush!

We are shooting PS Portrait Project number 87 today.

Obviously, we aren’t revealing the who, where- we haven’t since number 71, but we’ll leave you to contemplate this Hockney-esque scene at the location.

Enjoy!

Thank you Greg Murphy at the Joslyn Center for inviting us to participate in the benefit fashion show.

Our auction item, “The Palm Springs Portrait Project Experience” raised a nice amount for the center.

A splendid day indeed.

Jim Budman stopped by for a sneak preview of Owen’s show at @thealixgallery this Friday. 

Seen here with Alix’s dog Red.

Two years ago today we took this shot of our friends P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes to try out an idea we had for a photo project. 80 plus portraits later we would like to thank this wonderfully vibrant community of greater Palm springs for your support. We couldn’t have accomplished all this without you. 

We are now winding down, finishing up and sending out our book proposal to publishers. 

Stay tuned!

The desert. 

Swaths of sand and scrub, wide manicured greens, and snow-capped mountains.

The thrill of reaching PS Portrait Project number 80!

Thanks to Jen and Kemble Walters.

“This was an incredible experience! It’s always a good time when you jam “sex pistols radio” and everyone on set is rocking out! Being fairly new to the desert, this experience just reminded us of how magical this place is and how it brings people together in its own unique and creative way!” Jen + Kemble

While it might seem that our PS Portrait Project takes up all our time, the fact is we juggle a number of clients and projects seven days a week.

Meet Victoria Starr, whom we recently photographed for her new website and promotional materials. We also work with interior designers and architects, restaurants and chefs, as well as travel and leisure stories, in addition to the other personal projects we have going.

Alas- we do not shoot weddings or real estate, which is fine by us.
