Reading is Glamorous and Fashionable

This is what happens when I get bored. I wish that one of my fashionable, imaginary friends would materialize and hang out with me. This one showed up but I forgot to ask her name. All I really know about her is that she is a proud owner of a library card.

Ottobar 80s Prom

I had a blast shooting Polaroids all night at the Ottobar’s 4th Annual “Pretty In Pink” 80s Prom. City Paper sponsored the event and when they asked me if I wanted to do this again, my only requirement was that I be paid in film. Warning, Jew jokes ahead! CP Superstar, Linda Bernstein (I [...]

I got an email from a friend the other day and she said how nice [...]

Cartoons and Leatherface Create New Fashion Aesthetic
