they are framed by a Picasso in the background- of course I forgot to write down which one!

Yesterday was one of the best days, all around, in general I have had! For a myriad of reasons(not in any particular order!)- I got to shoot; I was with my husband (sans kids); I got out of the state; I saw fine art at the MOMA ; it was beautiful perfect weather; I was with two of the nicest, most genuine people; I had my crocs on! I had linguini and clam sauce and pistacio gelato! Oh and I got to lie down on the disgusting New York City sidewalks! What a most perfect day I had with Kate & Ted- we went to Central Park- found this awesome observation tower near Shakespeare’s Garden in Central Park, rode the subway, took a cab, ate in Little Italy- went to MOMA and saw some of the most wonderful art pieces in the history of the world! I had never been before and I actually got a little verclempt- and almost cried- I was really overwhelmed at being so close to a ginormous Monet, and seeing Picasso’s famous piece Les Demoiselles d’Avignon was so moving and intense. I was surrounded by Cezanne, Klee, Gustav Klimt, Kandinsky, Matisse, Warhol- I could go on and on. And here I was amongst these masters trying to create my own slice of art. Extremely humbling and energizing at the same time. I was so motivated by the creative energy that was there and all of the people who went to see all of that incredible work. I couldn’t wait to share some images and have been working on them all day so Kate and Ted can see them! Enjoy!

Today was the weirdest combo of weather I have seen in a while! I had two shoots today, this first of which was at Harkness Park in Waterford with the wonderful Janet & Tom! It was all cloudy and weird with spotty sun while driving down- when I got to Harkness it was super foggy (my favorite weather btw) and I was super psyched. Then we hit a small random patch of sun, which kind of seemed to follow us around? Almost creeped me out because we were surrounded by the densest fog…I read a lot of Stephen King in my day and he wrote a lot of scary stories about fog. Even though it was like noon, we all kind of got a bit freaked out! OK mostly me but I am a scaredy cat and not afraid to admit it! Despite the fright factor it created some pretty cool atmosphere for our shoot and I tried to catch it as best I could. It was almost like when you have the dream of trying so hard to run and your feet are like glued to the floor and you get caught by whoever is chasing you? It was so beautiful and eerie and unusual that I was flailing internally because there were about 1,000 different ways I wanted to shoot and not burn Janet & Tom out at the same time. We all had a great time and really got into trying some new things like leap frog! And yes, I had to throw in my feet pictures, as usual! My feet FROZE by the way, I got in the water with them and was numb for a while. You suffer, I suffer! Thanks Janet and Tom for a fun shoot today!

Justin Marantz — Simply beautiful! It looks like something out of a fairy tale or some huge budget motion picture! btw...how much did it cost to have a whole crew fill the beach with fog machines? ( April 28, 2007 @ 8:31 pm )

Ah, so. Last Wednesday’s meeting was, AS ALWAYS, a super blast! Paul from Studio Foto did a bang up job of demoing Successware. He is such a rockin’ public speaker- to quote him, he is ‘AWESOME!’ He doesn’t call himself awesome, tho he should, cuz he is! Paul & Krystal’s studio rocks the house, as does their work. They were gracious hosts, thru and thru and I can’t wait to go back and chill at their studio! There were some highlights, for sure: the train (which is like TWO FEET AWAY)going by and blaring it’s horn! a bunch of people almost passed out! Me being one of them. Jacklyn Greenberg and Richard Esposito being named top dog photogs in the New Haven Advocate! Steve DePino got four photos on 5 million bottles of Jones Soda bottles! How cool is that? Can you see who I am rubbing elbows with? Can you? Our PUG people are super talented and really just all around awesome people, I am so psyched to have them all in my life! Also love our superhero fashion sense, no?
