YOU'RE THE STAR OF MY MOVIE

Lesley M.M. Blume sells books much faster than most people. Her new book, Let’s Bring Back, based on her column for The Huffington Post is selling like hotcakes. Here’s a pic I took of her for Castor & Pollux.

I was recently given the opportunity to plead my case in court that I wasn’t actually driving 90mph on I-87 this past summer. (In my defense I was trying to pass an erratic Massachusetts driver–commonly know as Massholes… I lived there so I know of what I speak.) Two points and $180 later I decide [...]

New pic of mine up at the Castor & Pollux blog “Loving.” It’s of Laura Connors. She works next to Castor & Pollux at Seagull Hair and is a hoot. Read about Bob from Twin Peaks and other cultural touchstones in her questionnaire.

Here are some photos of Prospect Park after the hail storm in Brooklyn last night. The air temperature was alternately warm or cold depending on where I was standing and I was completely alone once I entered the park. Spooky. A few days ago I marveled how my favorite tree in the park had withstood [...]

I shot a photo of Francesca Bonato for the Ladies of Castor & Pollux series. She’s Italian, lives in Mexico, designs jewelry (Hacienda Montaecristo), has hotels (Coqui Coqui) and her husband, Nicolas Malleville gets to lay next to Kate Moss in ad campaigns. Nice life, right? She is also nice, super talented, and beautiful. She [...]

I shot the stills for Holle Singer’s short “Bang” recently. (Yes, there were bunnies on set and yes they are cute!) On the Electric Circus site you can see, and vote for your favorite including shorts by Duncan Cargill, Rachel Macaulay, Ben Gutteridge, Sean Gray, Lee Ford, and Achim Bornhak.

I shot the cover for Colin Loggins’ latest Full Catastrophe Living release “Drowning By Proxy.” It’s got an indie pop sensibility + drum machines + a love of 80s English new wave. Think Ultra Vivid Scene, Guided By Voices, and New Order. It’s both ecstatic and introspective and it reminds me of feelings I had [...]

The West Indian Day Parade is massive. If you haven’t been you should put it on the to do list. Loud music, bikinis/feathers/glitter, jerk chicken, lots of people, lots of people dancing, flat bed trucks full of speakers. These pictures were taken when people finished the parade and I concentrated on the bikinis/feathers/glitter aspect but [...]

Here’s a new portrait I took of of beauty expert Jessa Blades. See her interview at the Castor & Pollux Loving Blog.
