I'm lucky to live with someone who is so inspiring and talented. I'm also lucky to live with such a cute pup that follows him around, endlessly.
Alex is preparing for his new show, alongside Matt Ritchie, at Gallery 1988!
I asked him if I could hang around and film him from start to finish as he made a new piece for it!
The video and info on the show got a post on Juxtapoz!
For my birthday, I treated myself to a Fuji Instax mini camera! Since I shoot so many crisp, well planed advertisement shots all day, having a such a lo-fi point-n-shoot no-retouching-anything is like a breath of fresh air.
When my friends sang me happy birthday this year, I was so giddy that I couldn't stop smiling. Not to mention the added humor of them waiting for the moment that I would try to blow out the assorted mix mash of candles. My wish to always find something to laugh about happened before I could even blow out the candles!
my favorite time of day used to be sunrise. I used to love beating the sun to the start of the day. However, we recently made a move to a new home with a west facing balcony and its changed my outlook on the subject. One of my new favorite things is winding down the day on the balcony and watching all the patterns the sun and our fencing creates. I recently went ahead and got some primo seating so that my little best friend can join me in watching these shapes and colors around 7pm every night.
Over the weekend, my best friend came in for a visit. Last time he was visiting us, Alex and I were living in San Francisco and we took a sporadic day trip down to LA to go to Disneyland.
It only seemed appropriate to make a goal out of going to as many Disney parks as we can, within our friendship. So we went to Disney World!
I had big plans of pulling out the old bulky Fuji land camera, and bringing my new little personal camera, but when we finally got into the park, I realized I had forgotten them at home! I ended up just using my iPhone and had such a fun day. Even after my phones battery died.
