One of my favorite parts about my trip to L.A. in April is this place. It’s a small cabin in Echo Park that I rented for the week (through a friend of a friend). It was the perfect place for me – I could have my coffee in the morning on the porch, send some emails or read at the table, and later in the day, the sunset from the back deck (and the view of L.A.!) was stunning. Simply done – but really thoughtful and tasteful. It was exactly my kind of place. So I couldn’t help but shoot a lot of photos while I was there. It was tough to leave – I wouldn’t mind moving in permanently!
(The great owners, Patrick & Danielle, now rent it out via AirBnB, too – so if you’re interested, details can be found here)
(ps – yes I did snap a photo from the shower. I couldn’t resist. The things I’ll do for a photograph … )

Just a quick one today – I’ve been running errands, enjoying the sunshine, eating leftover pizza for lunch, and now I need to edit lots of photos. Tomorrow, I’ll share a set of good stuff from California.

The weekend before last, I was in Mystic CT for the wedding of a very good friend. These were taken just after sunset on Friday night — surreal light just before the blue hour.

This week I’m putting together a set of photos from California – I can’t wait to share them with you very soon.
I’m also packaging and sending the first orders of my poster (get yours before it’s sold out!).
And I’m spending time pulling my apartment together (finally) so I can invite friends over to hang out in my back garden soon.
Things feel a bit less busy today, and I think the long holiday weekend had a lot to do with it. It feels good.

Memorial Day weekend, 2012.
It’s hot and humid in Brooklyn. I’ve started propping the fan next to my bed at night, and I packed away the down comforter. The subways will soon be unbearably hot but for now, they are nice and cool. We’ve had thunderstorms every day for the past week – big, huge thunderstorms that flood the back garden and send slugs into my apartment. Walking around Fort Greene yesterday, it smelled like BBQs. There are roses all over Williamsburg and everyone is wearing cut-off shorts.

Screenshot from a few minutes ago: a very high-resolution negative scan, zoomed in at 100% so I can remove any dust spots in the scan – and I saw the above image. Process as inspiration. Sometimes the dull parts of photography can be exciting.
