Childhood Home



I did some photographs of my childhood home in San Francisco while I was home for Thanksgiving. Interiors photography is quite a craft, I've had the special privilege myself of training with Ross Chapple, one of DC's finest interior photographers.

Beaujolais @ 1905 (11.19.08)


DF08_11.19_Beaujolais@1905-106, originally uploaded by DAKOTAFINE.

Beaujolais is a special time of year when the French (and some lush American's apparently) celebrate the very special tradition of drinking some really crappy wine. It tastes like shit.
