Serena Wellman for Fitness Magazine

I photographed the lovely Serena Wellman for Fitness Magazine. We shot at Carmel Valley Ranch on their sunny hilltop garden. We drove five hours in the car together that day, and talked non-stop! We found out we had a lot in common and spent a fun day together. 

She recently joined Team in Training, which is a sports endurance event to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, if you'd like to make a donation you can do so here

Farina Cookbook

The Farina Cookbook has finally been released! I'm super excited; this is a collaborative project that I've been working on for quite some time and it feels good to see the final product. It's a farm to table concept that is organized by seasons. Shooting this book took me everywhere from Salinas Valley farms in California to truffle hunting in Alba, Italy and lots of interesting places in between. 

You can order it on Amazon here, online from Farina here, and you can also walk in to Farina in San Francisco and buy a copy from them in person. (However a little bird told me that if you buy it on Amazon you get two complimentary dinner passes to eat at the restaurant...)

Hummingbird Girls



I photographed the Hummingbird Girls! Good friends in real life, Jen and Annalise have a 'penchant for vintage goodies and are happiest when dressed in eclectic secondhand treasures'. Their blog chronicles their personal style in creative locations around the Bay Area and beyond. We gathered in the Panhandle for an sunny afternoon game of croquet. 

You can follow their inspirations and adventures here: blog / tumblr / facebook
