Here are some photos from the opening of a new concept store downtown BOFFO designed by Nicola Formichetti & Gage/Clemenceau Architects. I shot these for MIlk Made last week. The mirrored space is Nicola’s representation of a “digital” cave; it is a collision of visions from both the punk era and the future. You can read more about the store HERE.

This week I’ve been doing small editorials for Milk Made working with All Day Everyday and a Leica M9. Everything I’ve gone to so far has involved music in some shape or form. Here are some of my favorite images from the week thus far. The first night features Hole and Courtney Love at the Hiro Ballroom. The second night features Our Mountain, whose members include model Abbey Lee Kershaw. Theophilus London also stopped by the Milk Basement. The third night was held at the Mondrian Soho with a performance by Neon Indian. Some of the images have already made it onto Milk Made.

Here are some new photographs from last weekend in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Super weird down there. Most of these photos are from one roll of film shot around
Juno Beach and the Holiday Inn Express where I stayed. Just photographing color.
All images taken with the Olympus Stylus Epic and Kodak 160NC.

As soon as I got to their house, the first things I noticed were the changes between floors and all the new pieces acquired since my last visit. The “inspiration room” really felt like walking into an exhibit at the Museum of Jurassic Technology or a curiosities shop from a hundred years ago but as cozy as a home could ever be. The fencing mask with the top hat is still my all time favorite combination of pieces. So weird. These are the photos that the New York TImes missed.

My friends Grace and Kenyan were gracious enough to let me come up and shoot a lookbook in and around their house this past weekend. This is their second home upstate and it was really cool to see how they decorated and put together this new home. I ended up sleeping in what is called “the inspiration room” and now I’m already eager to drive back up there. Whenever I go visit them, I end up shooting all the objects, interiors, and the surrounding landscape. Kenyan’s acquired a bunch of new pieces I’d never seen and has a new studio in a three level barn down the road. Big thanks to Jake Jones for lending a hand on the shoot. Amazing weekend away.
