Are you as obsessed with Design Sponge as the rest of the world? If you’ve been paying attention, they recently featured some of Miha Matei’s new interiors work!

Ryan Schude’s Ice Cream Chaos

If you need to make a mess (and great photography) Ryan Schude is your man. Who else is going to stand on a ladder and ask 40 kids to throw ice cream at him? Ah yes… now you see why everyone loves him? I recently posted this photo by Ryan Schude in our Q&A. TheContinue reading “Ryan Schude’s Ice Cream Chaos”

Q&A: A Photographer’s Location

Q&A: How does a photographer’s location affect their career? This is one of the questions I always get asked by photographers. Once upon a time, clients could afford to fly you, your assistants, and your ten thousands bags of equipment anywhere they wanted. Now, with the budgets collapsing and the competition from small towns growing,Continue reading “Q&A: A Photographer’s Location”

Mediaweek and Evan Kafka win Ozzie Award!

Some of you may remember when Evan Kafka shot Robert Safian of Fast Company for Mediaweek. The article won an Ozzie Award! I know the Ozzie awards may be random for some of you, but for the rest of us this is an important acknowledgment. The Eddie and Ozzie awards recognize excellence in magazine design.Continue reading “Mediaweek and Evan Kafka win Ozzie Award!”

Photo of my day

Here is a photograph from a recent advertising campaign shot by our photographer Evan Kafka. Isn’t it gorgeous?! The shot was originally in color, but then Evan thought he’d try transferring it to black and white. Something about this man’s intense look and the way his face falls into his hand make this image completelyContinue reading “Photo of my day”

Photo of my day

Here’s a photo from our newest addition, Ryan Pfluger. I couldn’t figure out a way to include it in his online portfolio… it just doesn’t seem to fit anywhere. I’ll keep working on getting it in though, I love it! Check out Ryan’s brand new fashion and portrait portfolios, as well as his blog. —Continue reading “Photo of my day”

Picture Black Friday

Ever notice how weird masses of people can be? Well, nothing is weirder than Black Friday shopping. I totally get the reasoning and we all know sales make us nuts, but the amount of nuts on Black Friday seems to go way beyond the norm. If you’re in the mood to document the phenomenon, checkContinue reading “Picture Black Friday”

The Ultimate Photo Camping Trip!

I love camping. I love photographers. A camping trip with a bunch of photographers!?! YES. Apparently, there’s something different in the air in California. From my desk chair here in New York, it seems photographers in LA and San Fran simply like each other more. They also like to work with each other and getContinue reading “The Ultimate Photo Camping Trip!”

Finn O’Hara and a very large dog named Darcy

As an agent, I get oodles of promotional emails a day from photographers. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining! I love seeing new work from people. That being said, sometimes I have the time to look and click around, other days I’m so busy that I’m only checking the emails that are absolutely necessary.Continue reading “Finn O’Hara and a very large dog named Darcy”

NEW Q&A: Is it time to stop assisting?

While the becoming a photographer doesn’t have the clear career progression some professions do, there is an ideal order to things: assist your idols and eventually leave the nest when you’re ready. However, with magazines becoming scarce and the number of assignments to be had dwindling, breaking out on your own is more difficult thanContinue reading “NEW Q&A: Is it time to stop assisting?”

Nicholas Haggard

While meandering through one of my favorite photographer’s blogs (check out Ryan Pfluger here), I stumbled upon another gem. Nicholas Haggard has a similar style to many photographers I’m seeing out there, except he just seems to do it better than most. The color palette, the treatment of his subjects… amazing. These photos make meContinue reading “Nicholas Haggard”

Derrick Gomez for Harvard Yard

Check out the new work from Derrick Gomez for the new clothing line, Harvard Yard. The Harvard name is certainly one of the most globally recognizable, in both positive and negative ways. The school licensing their name to a high end clothing line seems to be generating a similarly polarized buzz. Either way, these shotsContinue reading “Derrick Gomez for Harvard Yard”

Offensive Legos?

Just because you can take a photo of something, doesn’t mean you should… or that it’s a good photo. I recently ran across Mike Stimpson’s images on the Daily Beast. Stimpson uses lego toys to recreate some of the most iconic photographs of our time. Some are cute and humorous… others, usually the ones aboutContinue reading “Offensive Legos?”

Oh Maggie…

If you haven’t been exposed to Ofer Wolberger or the Life With Maggie project, well then here’s your chance to be wowed by greatness. Life With Maggie introduces us to a character in a complicated and intimate way. As an archetype of a “tourist,” a “lover,” and a “friend,” Maggie is simultaneously a blank canvasContinue reading “Oh Maggie…”
