What does free breakfast feel like?

Y&R came to me and said;

“Free breakfast at Hampton Inn feels like a carousel!  The old beautiful kind but instead of ponies and other animals the people are riding on food items!”

And,

“Hampton Inn have gyms too, and when you are in them you feel like you are on top of the world!”

I can relate to the gym feeling, and to the excitement of good food, so I said “Sure!”

A behind the scenes look at working with Saatchi LA and Toyota honoring Nature Conservationists

I got asked by Saatchi LA to work with them and Toyota on an image honoring Nature conservationists.

Looking for truly lush and green environments we travelled to Olympic National Park in Washington, spending 3 days capturing background plates. We then spent a day south of San Francisco photographing all our talent in a location offering parts of the same environments found in Seattle. This so that we could seamlessly blend our talent into the background.

Take a minute to see how all the parts came together…

 

 

The Frameworks and Dassualt Systemes

When one is deep into a photo shoot with all its logistics, travel and creative endeavors one moves at what feels like a million miles an hour…

It’s afterwards, when one look at the images and what was accomplished, the realities of my job sink in. I’m so blessed being able to do what I do and work and hang out with creatives like Ray Brennan and art producers like Tanja Adams.

This assignment was just a treat in scope, creativity, travel, food and fun….
