Pretty much when you walk into any cafe in the bay area, you see people, and their laptop and/or ipod. And because people are busy with getting stuff done online or listening to songs on their itunes, they're simply happy with being on their own. For the most part, cafe is now more than a cozy place to get fresh grounded coffee and hang out with friends. My thoughts about sitting at the cafe, not being occupied, and enjoy what's in the mug is not always the reality.
With photography, I want to re-create my fantasy of seeing people actually having a good time in cafes. I'm constantly exploring the city, finding those unique backdrops and bringing my couples in for those fantastic moments. It's happening.
