I'm a moving!.....my blog......

After some deep soul searching, looking out windows on rainy days & sipping INTERNATIONAL DELIGHTS while wearing my favorite cable-knit sweater....I have decide to move my little blog over to TUMBLR.

Flying Saucers?!

No, our studio is not haunted.
I forgot to add this BTS pic to the teaparty story.
We were in our studio the night before the shoot working out this cute little floating teacup gag..
And to think people often doubt me when I say I don't do much in post...

tea time?

For as much as I whine about how lame the British Royals are, and how they a shiningly insipid example of being famous and powerful for all the wrong reasons..I do rather like British music, art, people(generally, anyway)...I particularly like English gardens and teatime, which is why we were happy to shoot this surreal tea-time in the garden inspired shoot for Marie Claire China..China is far away,
and they likened it to Downton Abbey, which makes sense I guess given the rather small window into Anglophilic pastimes the Chinese population is privy to...
Whatever...

outtake from new Marie Claire

Here is an outtake from the Marie Claire China story we shot this weekend..
The idea was that one girl is the muse and embodiment of six different designers' archetypes.
Our model Drielle was perfect for this, as she looked different from shot to shot, and really got into character...

Italian Vogue Video shoot-behind the scenes

Here are some pics from behind the scenes on our Italian Vogue video shoot...it was shot over two days in studio..that Lambo wouldn't fit through my studio's doors, so we shot the car segment at Bathhouse Studios.  The car sitter was nice enough to drive me into the studio for a dramatic entrance..a choice I instantly regretted as I awkwardly wrestled my way out of the car from my near fetal position in the passenger seat, losing my shoe in the process.
