This is Pete Hodian of Pete’s Shoe Repair, an old-style cobbler who uses equipment that are dated beyond his own 80 years. Although business isn’t as good as it used to be, Pete still enjoys the occasional patron who comes in for a new heel or sole. His favorite part of the day may be when his buddies, Al, Jack and Morrie come by to talk about the day’s news. It keeps his life busy and his spirits up. This photo was one of the outtakes in the printed version in The Bee, but be sure to read Diana Marcum’s great story on Pete. For more of Diana’s work check out her Edge of Town series. There’s also an accompanying video I did for fresnobee.com.

This is Fresno State’s Anthony Harding scoring the first of his two touchdowns that put away my alma mater, San Jose State, at Spartan Stadium in San Jose Friday night. This picture ran on the cover of Sports in The Bee. The first half was flat-out awful so I’m glad we were able to wait for late game stuff.

This is Kai, a cute little girl who I photographed in a portrait session last weekend. She had the Audrey Hepburn thing going pretty good and we did a number of references to old photos of the famous Hollywood star. Can’t help but start humming ‘Moon River’ while working on these photos.
