I checked out the annual Mods Vs Rockers bike rally this weekend in San Diego. Every time I go to something like this, I’m reminded of how much I want another motorcycle. Words cannot describe how many sick bikes were at this thing. Check out the audio slide show for a glimpse of the sights and sounds.(Watch it in High Quality!) Or, watch it here.

My portrait of reformed pack rat Ange Aguirre is on the stands in the January/February 2009 issue of Psychology Today…

To counter rumors that all I do is climb mountains and shoot tattoos, I thought I’d show you a couple of portraits I made recently for San Diego Magazine‘s article on leaders of tomorrow. On the left is Christopher Yanov who works with inner city youth, keeping them out of gangs and helping to send some to college. On the right is Lihini Aluwihare, a Marine chemist at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the youngest professor the institution has ever had.
San Diego Magazine has been a client of mine for years. They were one of the first mainstream books to hire me when I was starting out. I’ve repaid the favor with several awards for photography which my work has won them. Shooting for San Diego Magazine, I’ve meet some of the most interesting and influential people in the local community.
