It doesn’t mean that my insight is any less valuable than any of your man friends.
Enjoy the boys club.

i was doing some photo research for an upcoming project and ran across these two under a search for “horse polaroid”. neil krug and joni harbeck have combined their extra superpower forces for the PULPARTBOOK. trippy photos of joni shot by neil. trippy photography has always held a soft spot in my heart but these two take it to the next level by shooting the entire project in expired film and polaroids. the work looks like it’s been shot over an extended period of time in various locations but the look is completely cohesive. double up to joni; she looks exactly like giselle!!! and double up to krug for also shooting music videos.  i’m so jealous…. now on to shoot my own work.

(if you’ve never seen it, you’ve clearly missed out)

today i fell upon these beautiful videos while surfing the web and also a list of the top 1o fashion films of the season. the video below is on there. AMAZING. it’s also amazing why more fashion photographers haven’t explored video. i’ve blogged about video before, it’s just so beautiful… whilst i was in journalism school all the talk was about how video is the new photo… blah, blah, blah. i don’t for one bit believe that video can ever replace photo but i DO DEFINITELY believe that photographers can harness the power of video and make shit amazing! like beautiful, mind blowing, art. if you are a great photographer, you have a great eye, why not try video? give it a whirl! i suppose everyone really is behind on the video wave, guy bourdin’s videos were listed in the top 10 of 2009…. hello, those videos were not made in 2009.

what i definitely DO NOT like is that all the cool fashion video work is coming from the Nick Knight/ SHOWstudio part of the world. WTF? are there really no other fashion photographers that have realized video is a really beautfiful element to add to their work? i get it, those guys are wildly intelligent and into beautiful things, but to everyone else: step the fuck up! i’m right on it…

props to kathryn ferguson for really bringing it on video #1. one of her blog posts is titled “experiments with crystals”. girl is cool. this film is tite! last two videos are nick knight, cause i just couldn’t resist posting them…

michel gondry’s work attracts me for this reason. it has a strange, sad, emotionally charged quality to it. i’ve been telling myself for years that i should keep a journal of my dreams.
