As so often happens, we’ll see someone, and because of their dress, their demeanor, their presence, we ask to take their photograph.

I don’t think anyone in all our years shooting has ever said “no.”

Thank you to everyone for saying “yes.”

Not a painting-

Not AI-

Not filtered, fixed up or f’d with-

Just a photograph, cropped. 

What you see is what was shot.

Photo apps are like flavored drinks for kids- sweet but ultimately empty.

Shoot like you mean it-

Shoot like it matters-

Shoot like you care.

This is not AI. 

It is a medium format film photograph. 

It is IP: intellectual property. 

We created this image using our skills as photographers.

We own this image. 

If you are diving into the AI pool, good luck- it’s shallow.

Pearl asked us to shoot a couple of promo pix for upcoming gigs in Morongo Valley, San Diego, and wherever the music takes her.

How could we say no!

Sometimes you find yourself in places that are so of another time and so breathtakingly beautiful, you could melt in tears of joy.

As we close in on the 90th portrait we thought we would share our portrait with an update to let you know that we’ve been working on content and layout and are looking for a publisher for our book, tentatively titled “Desert Dwellers, The Palm Springs Portrait Project.” 

This has been an incredible journey so far. We look forward to the next phase… 

Thanks to everyone who has welcomed us into their homes, (and closets!) and into their lives.
