Friesian Horses

Someone recently asked me… “Do you ever miss your old life?” my response was… “Which one?” It’s true we have many lives all in one.. There was once a time i spent a lot of time around horses.. and sometimes i do miss that for sure.. I was looking for some old images and came across these images which are outtakes from a fashion story.. I am excluding the fashion story.. just this beautiful black friesian stallion

The National for Rolling Stone

Mary J Blige & Catherine Malandrino

What’s better than mixing Music and Fashion with pics? add a charity.. Recently I had the pleasure to head up to Catherine’s showroom and atelier to take pictures of her and Mary working together on their joint charity line.. Ffawn and Malandrino.. which donates money to FFAWN: Foundation for the Achievement of Women Now – a charity founded by Mary J. Blige in 2008 and includes Catherine Malandrino among the Board of Directors. Mary & Catherine are very close friends and it is clear to see how both these very creative women come together, create and truly enjoy each other while doing so.. Last night i was invited to preview the collection at the MoMA.. thank you Elle Magazine (women in music issue)

Ashley Smith (as a nun)

I had posted on this great young woman, Ashley Smith before.. Just as she arrived to NY.. Ashley and I had a lot of fun playing while we took pics and hung out. she has a real open attitude and great personality.. not to mention the face of an angel, a body to die for and of course signature gap teeth.. Look out for this great girl.. Ashley Smith

Washington Square Park Fountain

Sunday’s are for fun! It’s been a long time since children have had the Fountain on in Washington Square Park.. I just happened by.. here are a few little snaps from my iphone..

Devon Aoki

These soft and romantic images were made in my Paris Hotel for The Evening Standard.. Devon is known both for her modeling and for acting.. she is now in a film released today called Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Undead Which is a modern take on the side story from Hamlet.. I recall seeing Tom Stoppards play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead… but i don’t recall any Vampires…

Devon wears Couture special thanks. Gianluca Longo

Kamila (portraits of a Polish Girl)

Another installment of my flipbook/ home sittings from last week.. Hair flips are about timing between the model and photographer but the real challenge is the expression and body language which often can look forced.. Kamila nailed it every time..

Shena (Portrait of a Jamaican girl)

Shena came to see me the other day while on a couple days break from school in Jamaica.. After having a great season in NY and Paris, including shows for Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, and Vuitton. I was told i had to meet and take her picture and that her personality is great.. They weren’t lying.. She is really sweet and fun to shoot. No makeup, No stylist, no retouch.. just Shena Moulton.. thanks again Muse
