Bay to Breakers is more than a foot race; it’s hands down the earliest free for all party in the country and it’s totally San Francisco. Where else could you run naked down city streets with an open beer at 9am and not get arrested? Tens of thousands of people dress in wild costumes every…
San Francisco’s 11th Annual “How Weird Street Faire” is a venue like no other and it’s all for a good cause — to showcase electronic music and raise money and awareness for world peace. The corner of Howard and 2nd is the gateway to a 10-block psychedelic event where “anything goes”. The sounds are eclectic…
San Francisco is a city of communities – each rich with culture and tradition. The 12th Annual Glen Park Festival is small, manageable, and a true family affair. The festival brings out local artists, musicians, chefs and supports children’s projects within the neighborhood. I came out for the dancing and had a blast shooting this!
Opposition to the proposed sit/lie ordinance is gaining new momentum as a second city-wide wave of demonstrations swept through San Francisco. I made it a “green” day and took the bus to the Mission, the subway to the Castro, hoofed it to the Haight, and then continued to rely on Muni to reach the Tenderloin…

San Francisco started off in full bloom this Easter Sunday – and from what I captured before 10:30am – you never would have known it was a day that turned to rain. I started off in Huntington Park at the top of Nob Hill, captivated as always by the Fountain of the Tortoises. Across the…
I love how this tale unfolds – I aimlessly ventured out to look for a story. It was one of those amazing Sundays where it feels like San Diego and you almost forget it’s San Francisco. You’re amused by tourists who think this weather is the norm and stroll about carefree thinking they’ve uncovered a…
Anti-war demonstrators take to the streets on the anniversary of the start of the Iraq war. Among them — parents of soldiers and former sons and daughters of the Vietnam-era.
There’s another attraction winding its way down this tourist destination street, and their loud squawking will stop you in your tracks. Ever since the 2003 documentary about the homeless musician who befriended the birds, The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill, I’ve been fascinated by this flock! I read the movie was among the top 30 nonfiction…
