Cal Football vs. Grambling State

 The UC Berkeley Cal football team opened up its season with a match against Grambling State at Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

 Grambling State was not much of a challenge against a solid Cal team.

 The defense played well...

 ...and the offense tore up the Grambling defense.

 But at halftime was the show everyone was waiting for...

 THE GRAMBLING MARCHING BAND!!

 They were amazing and it was fun watching them preform...

 ...and they ending with a salute to Cali.

 But all in all a good start for Cal's season.

Let's see if their offense can keep running!

Exploring Chinese Cusine in San Francisco for Food Republic

One of my favorite assignments from the past few months has been this shoot about important Chinese Restaurants in San Francisco. 

 It lead me on a culinary tour of San Francisco's Chinese restaurants...

 from the heart of Chinatown.... (pictured Eastern Bakery)...

 to the Richmond District and its amazing Dim Sum restaurants (like Hong Kong Lounge).

I photographed popular favorites like House of Nanking....

 and its amazing selection of food...

 ...and ambiance.

But the best discovery was to see how much people enjoy food and see how it brings people together; especially at Old Mandarin in the Sunset District.  If you have a chance check out the story!
