Bob Foster and I

Bob Foster and Samuel Lippke discussing Long Beach Politics in the Mayors office.

The Mayor and I talking trash on the Celtics. Talking Long Beach politics and possibilities of a much needed $571million dollar bond... you know just passing time.
I followed him around for a half day, photographed him making speeches, in a boardroom meeting, cutting a ribbon at a property unveiling and documented him riding public transportation. Our mayor is pretty legit. Plus I workout at the gym with him... He's as strong as an OX.

Long Beach Mayors Cup

Saturday morning, LBpost's Ryan Zumallen called my mobile and told me of the Long Beach Mayors Cup Yacht Races happening that afternoon. I had a busy day ahead of me, but I couldn't decline an offer like this. Photographing an amazing event like The Mayors Cup? Sounds like a good Saturday afternoon to me!

Heres some images I took. The rest will be on LBPOST soon.

HERE is the Mayors cup site to learn more.

Cheers!
