I live walking distance from and, with mask, camera, and strobe in tow, I spent a morning the other weekend hanging out with their friendly staff during the bar’s 1 yr anniversary. I’d badly been missing photographing in bars, as well as more from-the-hip editorial style work where I got my start.

It’s amazing that any neighborhood bar can find their footing removed from the most obvious mission to pack barstools, dining tables, and couches, round and after round; very much, in a physical sense, bringing people closer together. But Thunderbolt manages to do it with a steady flow of pop-ups, patio dining, some of the best canned/to-go cocktails I’ve had the pleasure of sipping, and a cast of regulars comprised of neighbors, employees, and the LA bartender community. I’m not surprised! They’re talented and kind, yes, but appear to want to put serving their immediate neighborhood ahead of being known as the destination cocktail bar they’ve undoubtedly become.
Beyond all of that, they put a lot of thought and hard work into their cocktails and have translated that to the at-home drinking experience. So I’d highly recommend keeping an eye on their to-go options, as well patio dining and “events,” as the city of LA inches towards being able to safely dine and drink-in again.

Been busier but been busy.

Re-painted my childhood home for my parents and filling in cracks, sanding doors before the monsoons come — that all counts, surely. Some views from a tall ladder on a hot day. @ Carefree Foothills, Cave Creek, Arizona

iPost impromptu phone-photo shoots on my feed now because I have no idea what the future holds except waffles for brunch. I should probably take a cue and lighten up — that future is kind and fluffy and sweet. @ Echo Park, Los Angeles

Life has been alternating between very scary realities and more mundane moments. Mundane with an asterisk. I’m not really sure what a food photographer is supposed to do in times like these, with brand shoots cancelled and bars and restaurants closed. I guess I’ll just be sharing little moments — little photo shoots from this past week and change as I figure out what’s next for me and what I can do to move the ball forward.
Here’s a chicken I roasted. To stay open and pay employees, a neighborhood restaurant has been selling some of its ingredients — part market, part CSA, part Blue Apron (as I saw someone else say) — so I ordered a chicken, dry brined it as I’ve been instructed by personalities on YouTube, cozied it up to some veggies, and got it up to temp. I camera zoomed deep into the purple potatoes to make pretty transition slides. I then swirled the potatoes in the chicken fat in the hot pan and cut the rest of the bird up for later. @ Echo Park, Los Angeles

I got a lot of candid photos of Peter Bigfoot while at his home, the Reevis Mountain School of Self-Reliance, but this was my favorite.

[1/2] When we arrived this past weekend, we’d only barely missed the untimely death of Moochi the turkey’s (slide #1) boyfriend (slide #10), which Peter said died of a heart attack (and, though it was a bit ironic that we ate turkey that night for dinner, it was from a previous bird). Though Peter spent the weekend grieving his old friend, life at the farm, with large orders coming in for tinctures, required he and his small team press on. and I would go on to pick some of the remaining persimmons, high up in their trees, to take back to Phoenix. @ Superstition Wilderness

Peter Bigfoot’s story could make for quite a folk tale if what they’ve said stretched the truth too thin and if the story wasn’t still being told. But, after several cups of peach pit and anise tea at his farm deep in the Superstitions, Peter showed and his two boys and I the slide show of 70’s-era selfies he took during his life-threatening 15-day solo trek from New River to Four Peaks (through what’s now Cave Creek and Carefree). He did so with no food other than what he could forage and no water other than what he could find — and in two summer weeks where temperatures routinely rose above 115 degrees.
Today, those who aren’t familiar with his schools and healing tinctures may know him better for the pristine fruit — most favorited, fuyu and hachiya persimmons — he’s brought down from mountains over the years, to chefs like Aaron and .
After the papers wrote about his now-famous trek and as the 70s were coming to a close, Peter found an old facility in an opening by a creek deep in the Superstition Mountains and made it his own. He’s been there for almost exactly 40 years. In its heyday in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Peter says the Reevis Mountain School and Farm housed as many as 15-20 live-in workers and interns, tending the farm, helping with classes and making tinctures — medicines extracted from herbs such as horehound foraged from around the property.
Today, Peter is almost 80. He and two, sometimes 3, others operate the farm and school. This past year his home survived a forest fire and the floods that are more common as a result of thinned foliage. They lost a handful of fruit trees, amongst other things.
Still, there is much work to do — especially with fewer hands. But it seems Peter is unobstructed by the challenge ahead. He says, much like a legend or a folk tale, he’ll just have to live on forever. @ Superstition Wilderness

Chef Nobuo with his dish of steamed sea bass, green tea soba noodles, and smoked chicken broth. This was my favorite dish I photographed for and their Top 100 Restaurants issue.
