Since childhood, I have always had a fondness for Fall. Growing up in Northern California can't compare to the harsh differences that our East Coasters get with their 4seasons, yet here in Wine Country we have learned to sense the seasons approaching by more subtle shifts in things other than weather.. tourist influx, the smell of oak burning, neighbors wrapping their avocado trees... </div>
<div>
We aren't picking grapes just yet, but I am looking forward to a Season of Harvest photos with friends this year.</div>
<div>
In the meantime, we are busy shooting wine bottles!</div>
<div>
Our latest project for the <a href="http://www.buonwine.com/">Buoncristiani Wine Company</a>, to shoot their white wines, is the first of many bottles this season.</div>
<div>
The Buoncristiani's have recently launched their cave tasting room with the <a href="https://www.vintnerscollective.com/">Vintner's Collective</a>, and it's definitely worth checking out!</div>

<br />
Weddings are a beautiful thing.<br />
<br />
Last weekend was a reminder of why I love what I do!<br />
Roma & Tom asked me to be part of their nuptials at the Carneros Inn in Napa, and after meeting Roma and Tom over a glass of champagne during the Kentucky Derby weekend in May, I was happy to be in the saddle for June!<br />
The Ceremony and Party to follow was a beautiful sample of Love and Family and friendship, and I was honored to be tasked to manage the memories.<br />
<br />
Tom & Roma Steffanci own a wine label in the Napa Valley named <a href="http://www.boyanciwine.com/">BOYANCI</a><br />
I have to admit, I already cracked their bottle of Cab (Wedding Guest gift), and it was top-notch! check it out.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Thank You Roma & Tom, may you celebrate your 50th in June of 2063, under a framed photo from a spectacular day!</div>

The two hour drive East from Panama City, to the DariƩn gap, with my Sister's husband, Juan.</div>

Juan is in the exotic hardwood business, and he's brought me along to experience a day-in-the-life of a Tree Farmer. We set off at 6AM to visit his Teak Farm, meet the indigenous peoples, sample the road-side fare, and time permitting search for wild cacao.</div>

Rule #1, bring your passport. Colombia borders Panama to the East, and so it goes without saying that being an American, traveling with my Canadian brother-in-law and his Mexican associate, we were going to be spending some time being profiled at checkpoints.</div>

I felt it was worth stopping last night for a quick sunset landscape photo.. the "driveway" to Gundlach Bundschu makes for an amazing backdrop to a late Spring sunset. Taken from the "SCRIBE" outlet. Thanks, folks!<br />

Variety magazine...Thanks to all of our Clients and Friends of the Business who have asked about our Blog update, and thanks for your patience! It's been an incredibly busy, and enjoyable Spring and Summer Season, and a personal record for miles logged in the air and on the road.<br />
<br />
Among many recent assignments, we most recently have been published in Variety magazine for a private client who is listing their home in Montecito, CA (Santa Barbara).<br />
<br />
This project lasted for a few weeks, and after many patient hours of waiting for the Marine layer to clear, we were able to cover this amazing property from every angle.<br />
<br />

<br />
This property sits right on the Pacific Ocean, and is the quintessential "California" experience... literally just sitting at the beach front seawall and listening to the waves creates a vibe that you can't find anywhere else! This property was a challenge to photograph in that the feeling you get being there is very tough to show in photos.<br />
<br />
This image was recorded as a wide-angle panorama, and covers a view of approximately 220degrees.<br />

Two of the most inviting, easy going, and friendly people we had the opportunity to work with.<br />Wendy & Louis chose the Pavilion at Vintage Estate in Yountville (<a href="http://www.villagio.com/">Villagio Inn&Spa</a>), and must have consulted the Farmer's Almanac for the perfect weather! The venue is an amazing spot for weddings, and the Historic Barrel Room, adjacent to the Pavilion, is the perfect spot for a party.<br />The photos enclosed were from a quick post-nuptial visit to the neighboring Kapcsandy Vineyard...

It's a very <span style="font-weight: bold;">sketchy</span> feeling, a lot like harvesting apples with a golfclub during a thunderstorm.<br /><br />I found that my best strategy was to lock-on my shutter drive for continuous 15 second exposures, cross my fingers, and get as far and low from the camera as possible. <span style="font-style: italic;">Realistically, and as a footnote to you purists out there, there's no other way to get this shot!</span> After 40-50 photos, I knew that I had it! The lightning seems to have grounded to a construction crane which is just out of the frame to the right, as well as a bolt in the distance that hits the roof and antennae of an apartment building.<br /><br />Thanks, Gerhard, for the perfect vantage point, and thanks also for the cigars!

This 6th Annual Fund Raiser (to help raise money for the Children of St. Charles School in the Bay Area) was a complete turnout!<br /><br />PurkinjeBlue was asked to cover the event this year, and through our Social Responsibility Program we happily donated a photography booth setup to help the cause. We expected a nice party, but were surprised to see the Temple Bar totally packed!<br /><br />What really made the party were the two guests of honor: "Mike" & "Anthony"... these two were like little powerpack Emcees. Good times!<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhscoQLcwT7L1dgZm4D9-FOUlwmhj3gIioSBHhxGTfvpHI-TsdJL8jM2cWvs3huX00CKmBgvuZ30DutKo1swN7Pu-fgglYVc0OHz__BEQcts1BrSfm7pO2hWTDpRaLmPSTy4HvSwcp1_weu/s1600-h/stpats_warmup01.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt;

When I see a potential photo while driving, I usually do the ceremonial quadruple-take glance, then subsequently I find myself debating internally over whether or not it's worth the time... More often than not, I'll get about a half-mile before whipping a U turn, then try my best to look like a complete tourist.<br />Today, I was glad I "stopped to smell the roses" (<span style="font-style: italic;">photograph the mustard</span>), as the bloom fades quickly.Andy Berryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10289318030422686299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960884503009876357.post-53262496770571356282008-12-31T17:52:00.000-08:002009-01-06T18:27:57.382-08:00"Buddy"<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFjwX6Dn0llGbOLYJ-kkduVhfWfDVOfjnI20LZCT0lJaIEj_dmDDztEG1XRFOg4vxd-g2qMYM6YhZ1Vt9RYRSNWNmPrY1daMDLAg6jqF1H-3eRH1RDHb6B4xMJQHo1nUKLkj_eoNmujMfO/s1600-h/buddy_petportrait_purkinjeb.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFjwX6Dn0llGbOLYJ-kkduVhfWfDVOfjnI20LZCT0lJaIEj_dmDDztEG1XRFOg4vxd-g2qMYM6YhZ1Vt9RYRSNWNmPrY1daMDLAg6jqF1H-3eRH1RDHb6B4xMJQHo1nUKLkj_eoNmujMfO/s400/buddy_petportrait_purkinjeb.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288372896923715954" border="0" /></a><br />What a perfect day for a portrait of our furry, four-legged friend, "Buddy"... Buddy's adopted parents live in NorthBeach, and they wanted to portray Buddy in his element. After several great spots, including the park, walking the cablecar tracks, and running up the near vertical ascent of Taylor street, Buddy seemed most comfortable right at his own front stoop.<br />I found myself reaching into my bag of tricks to get these RCA-style shots of Buddy... the old "cat sounds" trick works every time.Andy Berryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10289318030422686299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960884503009876357.post-72752200434406736062008-12-27T18:49:00.000-08:002008-12-29T19:26:47.221-08:00Little "Elle", cutest baby of 2008 award<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0HJY6xhqsChtEG0uRcVELb8UGRzN4mXJCYw_dHxkOGjhBZsJU9uqcIKqbIaWTauyGNFc5qbINnnyH2F_A6VlvfuYuaM6tALwbQac-mN-loO1fKhkegU90OFIGpLSKQMP9Ltt1gAnQQoO3/s1600-h/purkinjeblue_elle.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 189px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0HJY6xhqsChtEG0uRcVELb8UGRzN4mXJCYw_dHxkOGjhBZsJU9uqcIKqbIaWTauyGNFc5qbINnnyH2F_A6VlvfuYuaM6tALwbQac-mN-loO1fKhkegU90OFIGpLSKQMP9Ltt1gAnQQoO3/s400/purkinjeblue_elle.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285419181275727378" border="0" /></a><br />We had a wonderful experience with this "little person" portrait. "Elle", and her proud Parents, were all ready to go when we arrived for the portrait. We had yet to meet little Elle, and as we turned the corner into the kitchen, she immediately froze, and just stared at us with her huge blue eyes. "BLUE BERRIES!", I announced!<br />This would turn out to be, officially, the most photos we have ever taken in a thirty minute portrait! Over 300 RAW images @21 megapixel= over 12 gigabytes! (Any professional photographer with the opportunity to photograph such an adorable baby would understand what we mean!)... Thanks, Michelle and Adam.
