Gardener's Day Off

Another assignment for my Advance Fashion Critique Class. We had to take a photo from our portfolio and recreate it. I decided to use this photo. Model is Parisa Taheri.

Human Canvas, Rachel

I'm continuing my Human Canvas series. For this I liked the idea of "blending in" with one's surroundings. It took about 4 1/2 hours to paint. Model is Rachel Curry.

Rain on my Parade

Here is one of my assignments that I did for my Advanced Fashion Critique class at SVA. The assignment was to do "street style photography", but of course it had to be fashionable. Since I live in NYC I constantly see men dressed in suites hustling and bustling all around the city. I wanted to make fun of these stereotypical businessman. Specifically on how they all look the same and are almost always straight faced. I wanted these photos to be full of color and character. I like exaggerating things and making people stick out from the "norm".

Parisa

Back in September I met up with my "long-lost-cousin" (okay she is not "long-lost" but I just recently met her for the frist time in my life!), Parisa Taheri. We pretty much got along right off the bat when we first met! We have a lot in common and she loves to model, so how can I not take photos of her? Expect to see more of my lovely cousin in future photo shoots!

Brooklyn Bridge

While the lovely Karen Castillo was visiting me in New York City we woke up at 4:30am to see the sunrise on the Brooklyn Bridge. All went well, expect for the fact that it was super clouds and overcast. We still took photos anyway.

Karen

Karen Castillo (aka Undergrounmess on flickr) came from Florida to New York City for a few days to adventure and explore. Here are photos from our first full day together at MoMA.

random photo that I liked from that evening:
