Getting the Right Shot

Getting the Right Shot

San Diego is a great location for yacht photography! It's very simple to put the spectacular city skyline in the background of the shot and the flat water of the bay creates ideal conditions for power or sailing yachts to look good. In fact, I find the photography part easy and fun! It's the logistics that can get tricky. Especially if you get several moving pieces to deal with. For instance, an international development company hired me to photograph their luxury yacht that is based here in San Diego as an amenity for buyers of their real estate project here. They needed to hire a Captain to command the 45' water craft. I needed to coordinate a chase boat for me to be able to shoot the yacht from the water. The marketing team based in another city had to be here to direct the shoot (which they did with aplomb!) The best time to get "hero" type on-the-water photos of a yacht are either in the morning or sunset. The chase boat was not available in the evening. So, I chose the Continue Reading

Photographing Sailing in San Diego

Photographing Sailing in San Diego

San Diego is one of America's top sailing cities and it's exciting to be down on the docks and out on the water every day I do it.  As a lifelong photographer, I got into nautical imagery and sailing photography, intently, when I owned a sailing club for ten years. During that time we took trips all around the world to go sailing and of course, every day at the club was an adventure! It was also when I began to work with video making little keepsake memories for club members when they reached new levels of expertise or went on their first sailing vacation. Nowadays, I can spend hours, happily, just wandering the docks or puttering about the harbor. That's a good thing because one of my clients has me supplying them with 60 photos a month with a nautical theme! This is also making me create a large stock collection of San Diego sailing photography. Now other businesses can license them, as well, for their own social media story telling, web sites, brochures and advertising.

San Diego Stock Photography

San Diego Stock Photography

We have just released our first set of photos now sold through Alamy.com! It is just the beginning of what will become a very large body of work. My concentration is going to center around all that is San Diego for anybody's journalism or advertising purposes. Go see my stock photography! I started this part of the business with a collection I have called Farmers Market. After all, I go to mine every week, religiously, and have gotten to know vendors and other shoppers as one does. Suddenly, I realized I should be documenting it all! It's fun! Each week I shop and after getting my food, return to stroll with my camera. When I get home, I take the bounty into my studio and shoot it as still life subjects. This gives rise to another aspect of all of this and that is creating props and backdrops with which to display. Fortunately, San Diego has no shortage of second hand and thrift shops to go in search of quirky things I can use to photograph fruit and vegetables. But again, Continue Reading
