Heyo friends. I just mnoved to San Francisco and was wondering if any of you knew of anyone other photogs in the area. Tim Halberg was my "mentor" in SB. I'm going to miss him dearly.

So if you know of anyone up here, or just know of cool people, I'd love to hear from you!

Thanks ahead of time!

Mark

Hi Mark! I'm in the area. There's a thread around here somewhere about having dinner in SF on like 9/5 i think. You should join!

Hi Mark,

Welcome to the Bay Area, we have quite a nice group here we call ourselves OSPwest. There is a planning in the works for a get together in February; be sure to join in it was lots of fun last year, and you will meet so many great and talented photographers.

Thank you all! I'm off to Portland, have a 7 am flight, and have to catch BART at 5 am! Ah! Will get in touch with all of you when I get back. Thanks for the invite for dinner, I'll most likely be there!

Welcome to San Francisco. I'm based in the Bay Area and look foward to meeting you!
Yep, there is a dinner being arranged for 9/5. The full post can be found here:

I don't think there's a venue yet.

You might also want to join PPGBA, we meet every 3rd Thursday of the month. It's a great place to network.

Welcome to OSP! Glad you joined us... you'll love it here!

What up Mark!
Welcome to the Bay Area.
There are several awesome and niiiiiice photogs from the area on OSP.
Hope to see you at one of the events coming up.

I just posted in another forum, but this dinner on 9/5, I'd be happy to have the meeting place be at my place. It's big enough, and it's literally 2 blocks from haight/ashbury. and i'd love to meet you all! i think i changed my avetar photo, but it didn't update! ok hope you're all well!

i need to find my new tim halberg! ha.

oh and nikon made kind of a sweet comeback don't you all think? but mark III is also rediculous! I guess we'll talk about it when we meet up.

Oh another thing, how's the dating scene up here? Ha. No wait, I'm serious!

Also I was looking for a good church.
To sell my BMW.
To buy a vespa.
To date a local.
To meet tons of wedding coordinators and photogs.
And to have buddies to tour the city with!

Ok, that's all for now. Feel free to write me dumb emails or text silly stuff.
