Been So Loooooong…..We’ve Been Gooone…..

Wow, it’s been so long even Blogger forgot about me. I’m back. Hopefully more often. Life and work have gotten super busy and that usually means my photography takes a back seat.

Last week, I shot the last Nine Vines Dinner of the season at Fifth Floor in San Francisco. Here are a couple of highlights from that…


Mario Batali Foundation Golf Tournament

Monday, I had the opportunity to work a booth promoting Bandits at the Mario Batali Foundation Golf Tournament in LA. It was cold & dreary (I know! In LA!) but a good time nonetheless.

 
The highlight of my day was meeting Vinnie Jones (Snatch, Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, Gone in Sixty Seconds) – I heart him. Love those movies and he was SO nice in person! I even got a hug.

Here are others just for fun….

Every year for the Wine Road Barrel Weekend, I help out my favorite winery, Holdredge. John & Carri Holdredge are awesome people and have welcomed me with open arms to chat people up and pour them wine out of the barrel. I enjoy doing it every year and look forward to the next time! In the meantime, I’ll be heading up for a wine tasting weekend in Healdsburg just to visit! They make fantastic Pinots (understatement!)….mmmmmmm…….

I think this is my favorite photo from the weekend. These red, rustic, peeling, weathered chairs are so vibrant and interesting. I may actually print this one!

Ahhhh the cellar door – according to J. R. R. Tolkien – these two words together are the most beautiful in the English language. The is the quintessential winery door shot…I’ve always wanted to take a shot like this. I’m not gonna lie.

This is at another winery in Amador County. This is a pool of water in the top of a wine barrel, the reflection is of the sky, the winery, and their weathervane.

This is the barrel room at Terra d’Oro winery in Amador County. It’s an extremely impressive place both for wine and for photographs! I had to go black & white with this one…it’s just so striking.
