It's February, and that means Wekfest! It's one of the only car shows any of us go to, so we're making this coverage huge! The show was at Fort Mason for the second time, but I still miss the old days when it was in Japantown. Oh well, times change, so without further ado... Read More
While not exactly common, total lunar eclipses are something most people get to see a few times. A total lunar eclipse at moonset during the dawn right over San Francisco is a little bit more rare. Trusty old Facebook gave us the heads up on this one, and Joe and I got up at 3:30am to go shoot this possibly once in a lifetime event. Read More
In all of our travels throughout the last twelve months, a handful of photos stands out from the rest. Many end up as wallpapers. A few never make it into posts. But when digging through a hard drive, they're the ones you keep coming across that make you say "Damn! This one is awesome!" These are those photos. December 2010: On the remote northwestern tip of Maui, I waited in a light,… Read More
2011's SF Auto Show was awesome. All the manufacturers had their newest models on display in a setting where you could climb all over them, press all the buttons, and play with all the gadgets. The show also featured a vintage car collection from the Academy of Art University which was truly breathtaking.
Joe and I (and maybe Geoff) are planning an epic wintery photo trek sometime in the next few months, so my wife got me an intervalometer for my birthday. The light on San Francisco this afternoon was awesome, so I decided to send the new intervalometer on its maiden voyage. Canon 5D Mark II, 300mm 2.8 IS with 1.4x Extender (420mm F4). Downtown SF is a straightline distance of 20 miles from my house. One shot every 30 seconds for two hours… Read More
Since Columbus Day a few weeks ago, protestors have set up camp in major cities all over the nation. The group of protestors in San Francisco has been organizing demonstrations every Saturday, so Drew and I decided to jump on the BART and check out what it was all about. Read More
Every now and then I go through an old hard drive and see what's there. This time I came across a photo of local model Jessie Newman I shot back in 2006. She sure was great to work with!

Here at Life Blasters we bring you a pretty wide variety of stuff. We're all photographers in the automotive industry, but this isn't about that. Sure we cover a lot of car events, but the essence of Life Blasting happens off the track, behind the scenes, on the way to or from an event, at your house, or on vacation. Life Blasting is about attacking life… Read More
Drew and I first shot Jimi Hendrix at The Bistro in Hayward. We had just left Buffalo Bill's and were skateboarding around looking for stuff to blast [and a place that served something besides beer and wine --Bohan], and we heard music playing. We said to each other "Hmm, that sounds like Jimi Hendrix." As we skated closer and peeked inside the venue we were in shock. "Holy shit! It actually is Jimi!" Read More
¡WARNING! THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE LIFEBLASTERS POST!
...in fact, this and the installments to come should prove to be some of the rawest material we've ever brought to you. This is not for the feint of heart, or the feint of balls. If you're down for the in-depth… Read More
Bohan: We left Art's arcade and headed over to drop off a load of shirts at our favorite Donut shop, Bob's Donuts. We were in a rush because our friend Amanda was working there that night, and had demanded that we arrive before 1:30am to say hi. Read More
Pitts: Kia and Erika left our group after we were done at Rudy's, and Joe, Drew and I continued on to San Francisco. We stopped by Art's place in the Tenderloin, where we waited 15 minutes for him to come outside. Drew and I were in the CRX and Joe was in his truck, neither was a vehicle with which Art was familiar, so he stayed behind his gate where we couldn't see him, and his phone was upstairs charging so he wasn't getting our texts like "dude hurry… Read More
Before I was into shooting cars, I was into shooting cityscapes. One of my favorite views is San Francisco from Treasure Island.
