The Slow Club Restaurant has been an iconic eatery in San Francisco’s Mission District for over 20 years. I remember doing lunch take-out for photo shoots during my photo assisting days.

When my friend Paul told me he was going to open a restaurant in the old Slow Club location, it was awesome news!

The Morris SF (named after Paul’s father) is being run by Owner/Sommelier Paul Einbund, Chef Gavin Schimdt, and General Manager Kosta Antonoglou. This little neighborhood restaurant has an endless selection of libations to quench your thirst and serves amazing delicious food.

These are a few P.R. shots for the restaurant.

Photography Info

Everything was shot with natural light except for the portrait of Paul at the bar. Using natural light let me be more spontaneous in capturing the moment. Since there was not enough natural light at the bar, we used a Profoto Beauty Dish to mimic the existing light for Paul’s portrait.
