Well, I’m road-tripping right now. But, I didn’t want to have dead air on jakesnewblog during the entire time. So, I queued up a few items to post while we are driving. This is the first one. We may or may not have internetz, where we are going. If we do, then please feel free … Continue reading Photos from B-day→
I had myself a pretty busy little evening, last night. But it ended up being well worth hiking all over the island in the rain. First stop was Chelsea, to shoot El Mac working on his mural for his solo exhibit “The Humble and Sublime,” which opened at the Joshua Liner Gallery last night. I … Continue reading Happy Friday!!→
In another example of deep pockets doing good work, Levi’s has opened a free photo studio/lab on Wooster Street, where the Deitch space used to reside. I dropped by yesterday to check it out. I normally try to avoid NY freebies that are open to the public, because they tend to be a bit too … Continue reading Levi’s Photo Workshop at the Old Deitch Space→
Reagan and I went to the closing party for the RE:Form School Exhibit last night at the St. Patrick’s School in SoHo. It was a very cool project, meant to raise money and awareness for art programs in public schools. In addition to featuring pieces created by students around the country, some heavy hitting contemporary … Continue reading RE:Form School→
Apologies, in advance for the copious amounts of photos in this post. Last Thursday night, I went to DUMBO for a PBR pop-up party. I met up with our friends Sam and Anna, because Sam was doing video. We were totally bummed that Reagan couldn’t make it down. Reagan still wasn’t feeling well, and had … Continue reading A few more from the weekend→
Reagan is still very sickly, so last night I was flying solo at a Drake/Trey Songz show that I was covering. The show was in Times Square, which is my least favorite part of town (a long with mid-town generally). At least the rain had subsided by the time that I arrived. I was able … Continue reading Hump day is all upons→
Last weekend, Maggie, one of Reagan’s good friends that she grew up with in TN was in town with her fiance from DC. It was especially cool to see them because it was our firs time meeting her fiance, despite failed previous attempts. One of the things that we did was visit an exhibit at … Continue reading Ben, Maggie and the BK Museum→
[include file=http://www.jakesnewblog.com/wp-content/gallery/largefiles/sunsetpanorama600.html iframe=true width=658 height=650 scrolling=yes] (slide to view) This is an image that I pieced from a few different images. Like an idiot, I had the cam set to AWB, so the WB is a bit different it each, and you can see the seams. I was feeling too lazy tonight, to fix it. … Continue reading Fantastic Sunset→
I had a blast shooting Thursday night. It is kind of weird, but when I first moved to NYC, I used to have a lot of dreams about being out, about wandering the streets and overwhelmed. In my dream, it was always night and overcast, with the city lights reflecting off of the clouds. The … Continue reading Overcast City + Gourmet at Bloomies→
