Outside Magazine picked up James’s shot for their 2010 Wall Calendar. Pick one up and in June of next year, a curious sea lion will be staring you in the face! Happy Holidays to all!

Outside Magazine's 2010 Wall Calendar
We recently shot an assignment for Bicycling Magazine highlighting Santa Barbara and where to go to for a ‘Perfect Day.’ We shot restaurants, food, drinks, and of course bicycling the mountain and beach roads. To get the scoop, pick up the December issue all you bicycling enthusiasts!

The 'Perfect Day' in Santa Barbara, California
Check out the latest Organic Gardening Magazine to see an assignment we shot for them. We went to a Montecito home to shoot this beautifully landscaped yard. One part of the article talks about how the design and plant choice shows seasonal color that compliments the modern lines and architecture of the home. Being gardeners ourselves (or we try to be!) and inspired by modern design, this was a fun shoot!

Organic Gardening Assignment
We had a bunch of assignments this spring that took us all over Santa Barbara County for the annual Visitors Guide. We shot everything from food to chefs and wineries. It’s always fun to explore Santa Barbara and all it has to offer, even learning about new gems. Here are some of the tearsheets to check out!
