Snapshot

I am fleshing out another new project. Well maybe more of an exercise than an actual project. A colleague/mentor gave me an idea for a shoot where you break the 4-5 foot intimacy barrier and shoot a friend for a few hours using a short lens so you have to get close to them. Shooting pieces, parts, snippets etc. I am still figuring out the reasons and the why of it but thought I would share a few of the shots so far. I definitely want to explore this more. It was funny how my subjects said they felt really self conscious with a  camera that close to them while they did everyday things. It is challenging to find interesting parts to shoot when the temps are such that everyone is bundled up in massive layers. So stay tuned and let's see where this goes.

And it seems I am fond of hands.

Trapeze!!!!!

I finally used the gift certificate I got for Christmas from my little sis, Jill. She and I took Trapeze lessons when she came to visit me last year and she knows how much I love it. So last week I took another class and I am kicking myself for waiting so long. It is SO DARN FUN!!!! I have learned new tricks every time and they are getting so fancy and cool. Today I was so excited to try the set split. It just looks so circusy and trapezey! I know that neither one of those are words but that is the only way to describe it. I let me camera run and got a video that ,while it is crap lighting you can see my catch on my new trick LOVE IT!  Take a look.

Me and LD back in da day

My former assistant from Quiksilver was in town this week and she crashed at my place while she was here. It was fun to catch up and have girl time. As I was archive digging tonight I ran across this gem from one of our QS Waterman shoots. We always knew how to throw a little fun into an otherwise tedious project with our Mannies, Bryan and Chad. Oh the days.

Henri Bendel

I am in Love. It happened quite suddenly although I met him years ago. We rekindled our affair on Fashion's night out a few months back and now it's official, I am head over heels. :) His name is Henri and I love everything about him. I want to be a Bendel Girl for the rest of my life. All illustrations by Izak Zenou who does Incredibly beautiful work. Oh to be THAT talented....swoon.
