The weather is sunny and warm and just like Jessica Jacobsen you could be hot poolside in front of my cameras. Send me an e-mail to SecondFocus@mac.com and we can chat about it. We can also discuss photography for your magazine, online or print features, or your advertising campaign. Thanks!

Laugh and Cry with Gena Rowlands
Last night at Cinémas Palme D’Or for Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks – The Movie. Followed by questions and answers with the wonderful Gena Rowlands starring along with Cheyenne Jackson.
A filled theatre laughed endlessly at all the right places and tears welled up for the touching moments. An auditorium that filled with applause at the close and credits scrolled across the screen. Even my name was there as “stills photographer”.
Without question, a movie and story that will make you laugh and touch your heart. Great music too! Go see it! Thanks!
Exclusive Real Property Photography
Practicing my skills as a photographer of high end real properties. I think I made this look elegant, don’t you? Just needs a little landscaping work perhaps and some window treatments. Yesterday traveling around Wonder Valley near Joshua Tree and Twentynine Palms.
Gena Rowlands In Person
A photograph I shot of Gena Rowlands in Budapest, Hungary on the set of Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks – The Movie during production. Tomorrow night Gena will be doing a Q&A after the movie at the Cinémas Palme D’Or in Palm Desert. Of course I have already seen the movie but it will be fun to hear what Gena has to say and to see the movie in my own backyard after spending 7 weeks in Budapest photographing it! Maybe you might want to go see it too! It is great fun! 
The World Of Farming
Last week on the way to Salton Sea, a different route taking us through the farm land of Mecca. It is truly a different world than what we experience in more urban living. And if you think you work hard, well these people really do work hard.
Maybe A Million!
The 14ft x 7ft huge banner that will hanging at the shows at Muscle Beach/Venice this Summer. The photographs of Travis Ely and Stephanie Lugo taken by me. How exciting to be a part of world famous Muscle Beach at world famous Venice Beach! I am guessing almost a million people will be seeing that banner. Thanks!
Not My Fault!
My friend Lydia Tack says I have a camera lens that automatically finds girls with long legs. Well this one is not my fault because Jennifer Henry brought them with her to our photo shoot. There was nothing I could do but take the photographs anyway. And if it is ok with you guys I will be showing more of them to you soon.
Miles And Miles And Then…
Sunrise the other morning taking a different route to the Salton Sea. A day for a combination of photo excursion and location scouting. Almost 25 miles of road with no one to be seen and then coming around a turn, a crew shooting a Nike commercial complete with a California Highway Patrol escort.
Dangerous In Winter
For those of you in the depths of Winter around the country or around the world. Do not invite Victoria Kirsanova for a visit. She will melt all the snow and ice and cause flooding. Much too hot! From our photo shoot with Makeup and Hair Styling by Natalie Lyle.
