Brian and I just landed from an amazing week in Mexico filled with family, friends and a new set of friends and family! Funny how that works when two people get married!
My brother Kevin and his beautiful new wife, Tanya, were married in quite possibly the most beautiful place I've ever seen (next to our wedding in Kaua'i in 2009). The wedding took place at the same spot Kevin proposed to Tanya a couple years ago. It was a private lush pocket of beach in between Todos Santos and Pescadero on the Baja peninsula of Mexico. Playa Las Palmas is a perfect setting complete with a handful of beautiful horses, and, of course lush palm trees leading to the beach. Here are a few snapshots that I did for the new couple (since I was the honorary photographer for the week!). With the exception of the last pic of Brian and I hammin' it up for the camera.
I'm gearing up for another gig in another warm climate on another continent for a couple weeks - whew - my airline miles are sure piling up this year so far! Have a great week and we'll catch ya on the other side of the world!

So, The Rapture (AKA Judgement Day) is upon us and we decided to celebrate with another update to the website! As you're running out of the house to stock up on pantry staples, helmets and bugs spray, you'll have a chance to check out the site on your phone! The lovely and talented Deb at dstripe.com hooked up our clean and simple Flash-based website to a clean and simple mobile site for all you smartphone users out there! Take some time to check out the site on your iPad while you're at it too (she did some custom coding for that as well).
I've also got some career-evolving work going on over here and you'll be seeing some new and interesting things popping up on the site in the next couple months. Stay tuned for the next chapter for Ryan Robinson Studio. It'll sure knock your socks off (or, at least encourage you to do some more doodling).
Speaking of Judgement Day, have a listen to one of my favorite bands, The Rapture.

I've recently collaborated with the lovely and talented gal, Nikki, over at Caliente Creative for a new campaign for a Chicago school in need. Nikki and I (along with Greentarget, DLA Piper, Accenture, McDonalds, and Karyn’s Restaurants) are participating in this program unofficially coined "Campaign for Crane". "Campaign for Crane" is a fundraising program designed to improve both the aesthetics and infrastructure of the Richard T. Crane school. In addition, this campaign will help develop and maintain outside mentoring and tutoring programs which are vital to the development of Crane's students.
Nikki contacted me to create the photography for the "Campaign for Crane" brochure. This brochure will be handed out to potential corporate and individual donors for the school's first fundraiser on May 16th. We spent the day photographing various students and mentors around the hallways and classrooms of the school.
