    I guess that the pressure to start of the year with a golden uplifting post is now gone, since I dropped that depressing bomb of a story about the car problems. But, here is some material to try to liven things a bit. Above: photos we took of each of us on New Year’s day.…

    (Above photo of Greta is for reference only, it was not taken during the incident described below) I have been putting off writing anything because I feel like the first post of the year is such a big deal. But, here it is, January second (almost Jan. 3rd), and I really don’t have anything that…

    I know that this is kind of a cop out. But I have really been busy. I’m not just making excuses, here. One of the things that I have been doing, is putting together some photos for a little feature that an art mag is doing on my work– toot toot (the sound of my…

    Yes, the rumors are true. NYC actually really did get a legitimate snow storm. I used to snicker to myself when they would shut down the schools here because of snow. Growing up in SLC, I recall nary a time when schools were closed because of snow. I haven’t done any side by side statistical…

    I guess that “melee” is not the right word to use. But I’m already feeling like I might have been involved in a melee, and the weekend is only half way over. Friday, I shot a Kid Zoom exhibit at one of the Opera Gallery spaces. I’m not going to lie, I am not a…

    Yesterday was very very rainy. Reagan was in LI during most of the day, for a bridal shower. So, Sam and I hung out all day. The first thing that we did was take him to B&H and get him a camera. He is now the proud owner of a new G-12. After cruising around…

    I’m not really sure why I did the title in Portuguese. I guess because it seems fancier that way. If I knew Italian, it would have been in Italian. But I don’t, so… Portuguese. Anyway, I roped my relatively shy brother into doing a couple of shoots with me, while he was in town (he…

    Man, I’m so glad that the weekend is finally here. In a few minutes, we will be headed out the door to see Piper. I just thought I would share a few photos from last night’s Converse party at their new store in Soho.  Dr. J. came through (I’m almost his same height, BTW): Q-tip…

    Ok, first of all– feel free to count the number of beards that appear in this post. Second of all– we had a blast last night. There were a lot of cool people who showed up to the party at Kiehl’s. Reagan was chatting it up with Dexter, before I snapped the image above. She…
