For two decades, I’ve lived in the heart of San Francisco, currently living in homey Noe Valley, but I have a deep passion for all corners of our magnificent city. I enjoy applying my knowledge of the city’s culture, history and topography to the current real estate market conditions to find the perfect solution for my clients’ desires and needs, whether they’re looking for a loft in the urban center or a roomy home in one of our many charming neighborhoods. I have a keen eye for detail, spotting potential often overlooked by others, and strive to bring the best possible opportunities to my clients. Read about current market conditions at my website, www.dpaulsf.com.

My photography has been published in Out & About, a travel publication, and on various food sites such as the Cooking Channel blog, Foodzie.com, SF Weekly, Blackboard Eats and SF Station. My work also appears on the blog that my husband and I publish, Hedonia (hedonia.seantimberlake.com), and we self-published a cookbook, Cooking at the Castello, in 2005. My portfolio is at www.dpaulbrown.com.

I worked with all parts of the creative process from live shoots to post production, as well as all departments throughout the company. Working in a live television environment taught that you must meet your deadlines or you missed your shot. I appeared twice on live television, talking about digital cameras and image management software.
