Sunday evening, Reagan and Jen decided that they wanted to do their hair like the late Amy Winehouse, as a tribute. So, Reagan styled them both up, and we snapped a couple of shots on the roof. I can’t say that I was personally a huge fan of Winehouse. But, I certainly respect the mark that she made.
Element held a preview for their new Emerald collection at Saturday’s Surf (above). I did a little editorial shoot with my homey Jace, on an UWS roof top, for Sons of Intrigue (below).
After shooting, we hung out and enjoyed the weather for a while. I snapped this long exposure of the UWS at dusk.
I covered an Olek installation that was held in a recording studio. You may recall that Olek is the eastern European knitting street artist who once completely covered the Wall St. Bull. Part of the exhibit included various people wearing full body crocheted camo suits (below).
And finally, Reagan walking our friends’ dog, Bear.
Reagan and I spent the majority of the weekend, starting Friday, in Eastern Long Island. The occasion was for our close friend Sarah’s wedding. The wedding was amazing. It was a lot of work for Reagan, since she was actually in the wedding. The bride and all of the maids looked flawless (Reagan published a few photos more wedding photos on Hairdresser on fire). Reagan was no exception. I sneaked my camera along in a tote. I didn’t want to be that guy waving around a big camera, as if the people who were being paid mad cash to shoot the thing weren’t doing a sufficient job. One of the favs that I snapped was the image above.
Saturday evening, we were chilling in the hotel room, and the light was just blasting in from the window, right before the sun set. Reagan was sitting on the bed eating some swedish fish, when I snapped this one. This ended up being one of my favorite shots from the weekend.
I posted one of these images a while back, vaguely mentioning what it was about. Well…. One of Reagan’s friends and long-time client has worked in fashion forever. She recently left her full time gig, in order to freelance. She had this idea where she would use her apartment to style up items, photograph them and sell them online. A few weeks ago she asked me if I would like to shoot it, and help with the web stuff. It sounded fun, so of course I said yes. Anyway, The site went live today. I think that it is pretty cool, given the fact that it was all done with two days of shooting, and only about a week and a half of coding (mostly done by my friend Joe, who I enlisted to help share the load). Anyway, check it out when you get a chance. The site is Hollysapartment.com. Also, check out the write-up in Racked, today. Here are the rest of the rooms we shot, below–
We had a great weekend, with all sorts of patriotic activities. Sunday night, Reagan threw a bachelorette party for her friend who is getting married next weekend. I took the opportunity, while she was out, to build and install her new desk in the former guest bedroom.
She didn’t waste any time putting it to use.
Monday, we barbequed on the roof with our friends Joe, Jen and Frank (plus Nikki the dog) and lit sparklers. The sunset was basically the most amazing thing ever. Here are a few images from the festivities.
The shot below was some team work. Reag wrote “Happy,” Jen wrote “Fourth.”
The next photo was all my idea (haha). Frank shot it for us.
You will probably recognize my hand style on this one.
I mentioned before that my homey M. Cuomo was going to leave his single speed in my care when he moved to Florence. Well, dudes, here she is. I have named her Trixie. Someday she might even be Trixie the fixie. But for now she is just a very loved single speed who just got herself a new set of drop bars.
The top two shots are of Trix as she looked after I took her in. Since then I have hooked her up with a new set of Nitto drop bars. I also flipped over the gooseneck on the stem for a more aggressive riding position. Try not to be jealous. I know that Trixie is hot. I haven’t even had a chance to ride her with the new bars. But Friday is my day off of running. So, you better believe that I’m going to be taking Trixie to work tomorrow instead of the A Train. Some shots of her new bars, below.
Ok, first the PBR Koozy gvwy, now this. I know what you are thinking. Just the same, first person to call me a hipster gets slapped (kidding). But, seriously, don’t call me a hipster, k? Also– thanks again, Mike.
Last night was one of the rare occasions that I made it into the East Village. Shockingly enough, this time it wasn’t to get my Crif Dog fix. I shot a soiree for Lucky Magazine held at a little speakeasy styled spot on East 3rd. Reagan joined the party after she left the salon. Our friend Amanda also met up with us. We had a great time and made some new friends. One more shot–
Not too long ago, on JNB, I gave away a canvas pouch by Madewell. Last week, I received some photos of the pouch in action, with its new owner. The winner was Bethany, and as it turns out, she owns a pair of glocks (a 19 and a 26) named Elsa and Gertie. Well, here are the images. I have to say, it looks like a custom fit.
^Elsa
^Gertie
B, I’m so glad that the pouch worked out. Thanks again for the images!
Despite the less than ideal weather yesterday, I ended up being super productive. I got a couple of images that I really like. The shot above is of the new JR piece on Houston (same spot as Scharf, Fairey, Os Gemeos, etc.). For a couple more looks of the JR piece jump over here. Since it was Thursday, I also hit like 3 gallery openings. All of the installations were very cool. My favorite was probably the show that opened at Kasmin last night. There were a lot of big names there, which makes it fun. Also, I think that I may have shot the only photo in existence, of KAWS smiling. Anyway, while I was scurrying around Chelsea, I saw this girl running like she was being chased by a dude with a chainsaw (she wasn’t).
Apologies to the girl in the photo for recording her stressful moment. But I thought it was awesome to see a girl straight sprinting while wearing a dress. Speaking of stressful moments, check out this mighty comical story that our friend Katie posted this week.
Have a great weekend!
It was a pretty good one. As a bonus, the light was extra pretty while we were driving. Not a bad way to start out the week.
If you haven’t entered to win the Manfrotto kit, hurry up. I’m closing comments on Wednesday and announcing the winner on Thurs. Get stoked.
