it's a trick new to me.

the best gif you've ever seen, riiight?!
(aiyght, maybe not..but i thought, in honor of my first passover dinner since the 90's, i'd make a first time matzo gif:)

i've found somebody better than you.

dear lovely lumix,
i'm afraid we've grown apart and i'm going to take this opportunity to thank you for all you've given me. i can't even count all the ways you've helped me grow+taught me to share. but sometimes you don't realize what your missing until you find something new...
so while you've been so good to me, i'm afraid we're just going in different directions+i just don't think we work well together anymore. i'm sorry, this may seem like it came out of left field but i had to come clean-i've been thinking about someone else. i thank you for all the fond memories+i will always have a place on my shelf for you.
besitos,
louise

dear canon G11,
i love you. i can't wait to share our lives together. i know we've just met but i think we've really got somethin here. i can't deny it. we have a lot of learn from each other+i don't expect it to be easy at first-enmeshing our lives as it were, but i have deep faith that we will soon get on the same page. i look forward to sharing my future with you.
with the utmost admiration of your sunflare capabilities,
xlouise

another very busy day at the office.

i updated all the photography folders on my website for the first time in YEARS.

SEE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(and please forgive some of the photoshopping, i'm still learning)

we linked arms to the waterfront

just after finishing up a meeting with the lovely christophe (about a potential foto blogging gig at nerve.com), my buddy joel (the albertan's main man) called me saying he needed band fotos by the end of the day for some promo.
i grabbed my polaroids (! my 680 is fixed!!!), some film packs+headed to their rehearsal space on n.6th.. we meandered over to the water to the newish park off n.7th and kent (the one with sweet manhattan in the background).
i shot one pack (10 fotos) +c'est tout! we were done, with 3 that they loved ready to go.
perfecto.
(not my best shadow shot, c'est la vie.)

dear readers, i want to sincerely apologize about the crap quality of the digi work as of late. my lumix is still broken+i can't find the warranty-but i remain hopeful, +thus not (yet) buying a new one..also, i have been taking tons of polaroids but gues what?..we have misplaced the power cord to our flatbed scanner+thus haven't been able to get them up on here.
however, i borrowed some from josh last night, so we're on the up.
quality control--coming soon.

p.s.
they have a residency that starts next thursday at cameo gallery..more info here.

quelle surprise!!!

i got a google alert about this last night.
what an amazing+wild occurence.....
maybe i'm getting somewhere afterall if a lovely teen gal wants to be photoshopped into one of my paintings..(and i have to say this is many peoples least favorite..so there.)
thank you rai. i'm feeling quite glad about it.

dress up+bro down

the purge party was a success, not a smash $uccess-but surely+truely a divine time for all who came...ginger cocktails, banter, trading, bestowing, buying, bowls, + dried cherries...
many more fotos to show you..but not now..now, all you get is this darling foto of my lady bringing the whiteheat of whitelightning to east billyburg..
apologies for the lack of fotos--you'll have to subsist on lots of virtual besos, for now..(you see, this was shot on mi senor's fancy pants camera+not my simple point+shoot, as it's still broken:(.. +well-it takes longer to upload+whatnot..)+i gotta go to bed as i got a wicked pinched nerve in my back 2 days ago+early flight out.
going to georgia manana for my mum's birthday+a visit with my grandfather+relatives+little lucas!..i'll be shooting loads of polaroids. hopefully, i'll show you some when i get back.
xL
p.s. i might shoot some kinda shotgun this weekend--stay tuned.

tdk tuesday.

featuring warhol+a radical tv

a week of cinematic meanderings...

all these (due to our new discovery of instantly streaming netflix!) and an iFC screening of memorial day, produced by my buddy hunter.
(p.s. i'm frickin' sickE + not glad about it).

color blind

p.s. my camera fell down the stairs last night..+i'm in mourning.
fingers crossed it'll be easy to fix.

playing with noise

who doesn't love a little vintage foto action..check out picnik for 60's, holga style+more filters..plus a polaroid option..it's easy breezy.(which means something-coming from a fotographer who can barely adjust minor color in fotoshop).
thank you to the enthusiast + ms. tavi for the heads up.

vacationland

one of my most dear vistas.
