Crest Hardware Art Show

It's that time of year again- time for the Crest Hardware Art Show! I posted about it last year, but just to let you know it is an art show of all hardware inspired art that is held in the Crest Hardware store in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Last year I had four photos in the show and this year I am putting in the two photos below. Please come out as it looks to be even more fun than last year- they are building a stage in Macri Park (the corner of Union and Metropolitan, right by Kellogg's Diner) where there will be bands and djs, including my man, all day long along with beer and food.

Art, Music, Sunshine and Alcohol- it can't get much better than that, right?

Amorphous Metals, Brooklyn.

The Art of Amateur Photography

Random amazing photos from SuperBomba's Flickr stream. An interview with her can be found here.

Constellation Magazine

Some of my photos are in the new issue of Constellation Magazine- the Aries/Taurus issue. You can preview and buy it here. Please check it out- it's an amazing astrology based magazine made by some wonderful people who put a lot of work into it so please take a look and buy a copy!

Meadow Home

I saw this house on a few blogs and I think it is just so beautiful. I've seen cavelike houses with meadows above but I think this is a really gorgeous example. Built by Hiroshi Nakamura in Chiba last year it is a really wonderful house- I wish I could live there...

More faded glitter...

I've been meaning to post some of the colour photos from this shoot for, oh, around 8 months. I've just been so overwhelmed with work that the last thing I want to do when I get home is more photoshop, even if it just dedusting and colour correcting. Hopefully this will change soon. Here are two from the shoot that I had to finish this week for a magazine- I'll finish the rest once fashion week is over.

Gemma Booth's Eccentrically Adorable Photos

Love this interview with Gemma Booth, a fashion photographer who's quirky photoshoots always make me smile. She has a super cute blog, GemBlog, which she updates with fun new work. You can also find her photos on her website. Gemma seems like she would be great fun to work with.
