moving pictures

Hope you guys had a great long weekend (or even just a regular one!) I had Tuesday off as well so mine was extra looong. However--I put my time to good use, namely by finally finishing up editing all the Super8 footage I took during my trip with the Pains to Japan, Australia and New Zealand back in February (see photos posts here, here and here.) It was really hard cramming all the highlights into 2:40 (guess that's what I get for choosing the shortest song off their album?) but I think I got most of the best bits in there!

Anyways, I hope you like it! I encourage you to click through and watch it a bit bigger/better quality if you have the time. Also, and I can't say this enough: thank you a million times over to everyone in the band and to everyone who helped make our trip possible. Here's to the memoriessss!!

P.S. I put together a post talking a bit about Super8 last year, but if you guys have any other questions please feel free to ask away! I was fortunate this time to shoot on a borrowed Canon 518, which is a camera I'd really like to own myself and a great, basic, easy to use model.

bows & bandits

The sweet girls from Bows & Bandits Vintage asked me to round up a few of my favorite pieces in their store at the moment--have a look! Plus, I absolutely love the selection of photos they chose for my little feature. Thanks ladies!!

beach bum

A few snaps I took back in April at the shoot for the We Are Handsome piece in FADER. It was a nice sunny day down at Brighton Beach, but don't be fooled--it was FREEZING! Don't think you could have paid me enough to be wearing a swimsuit in that icy wind...

Anyways, hope you're plans today include some beach time, or at least a good amount of lounging! No beach for me, but I'm headed to the park for some serious lay down/sandwiches/Italian Ice times. Lethargy, I salute you!!

dream about me

Yesterday, I wore one of my very favorite summer shirts. It makes me feel like a pixelated rainbow...or maybe like I just stepped out of a Depreciation Guild music video??

Happy long weekend!

light & magic

One of the things I love unconditionally about our apartment, despite a leaking refrigerator and temperamental oven, is the light. Here's a couple of snaps, one taken early in the morning, one late in the afternoon, from another fresh roll. I've got all kinds of stuff to show you!
