Trip to the Getty

My good friend & photographer Asha Catling & I went to the Getty Museum in Los Angeles yesterday for our very first time.  Greatest experience & inspiration in awhile.  We were so lucky enough to be there for the Irving Penn exhibition of his Small Trades collection. AH! I was mesmerized!  They showcased his 1951 gelatin silver prints & the remake of his 1960s platinum prints in four separate rooms.  I totally bought his coffee table book from the collection.  The Getty is a beautiful place.  The garden and the modern, minimalism styled architecture were my favorite parts of the museum because it made me feel like I was in another world apart from what I usually see.

I am thankful.

Dishes from Julienne Restaurant

Photographed December 3rd, 2009 at the Julienne Restaurant in Santa Barbara, Ca.

Really? This generations of photographers method for marketing themselves is not just promo cards and portfolios anymore.  You should make a rap music video about photography! ha-ha  Joey Lawrence is an amazing photographer with a good sense of humor I guess.   Joey & his friends collaborated to make their own music group called “The Photo Club.”

Go ahead, take a look.

*It REALLY sucks not having my camera.  The manufacturer is taking too long to fix it.  I feel powerless :/
