I want a Dirkon camera



Back in the late 70s this camera was published in an issue of ABC magazine. All you had to do was pop out the cardboard camera, follow the assembly instructions and in no time you had a working pinhole camera. I would like to get my hands on one of these!

Art school confidential

It's been over a month since being back in Denton and I still haven't found a job. Every day I keep having to buy supplies for my studio classes and I find myself having to cut down on certain supplies in order to save on money. I cannot keep doing this, especially when a lot of your work depends on the materials you have.

Taking photography, painting, and printmaking together is a bad idea! The worst thing is that the class that should stress me out the least is doing the total opposite. Art history survey I online is the worst. Nonetheless, my great time management has taken me where I am now and sooner or later I will be done with school. Hope I can make it because I sure am tired! At this rate I'll look 40 at 25. Someone hire me!

Pascal Grob


If there was a best blogger and lookbook photos of the year award it would probably go to Pascal Grob. His self portraits are probably some of the best I've seen. Teach me your ways!

He's probably one of my favorite fashion bloggers out there. Pretty much a lookbook legend as well.

check out his blog Fashion Bits and Bobs

Random Photo

I really love this image titled Power. I'm not sure if I would get power portrayed through the image if it wasn't for the title though. It definitely is crucial to have the perfect title to your body of work depending on what you want your viewers to get across from it.

Tom Ford's "A Single Man"



Tom Ford's directorial debut for A Single Man should be a good one. I can't wait to see this movie! Watching the trailer I noticed not one person in the movie is ugly. Their styling is probably the best I've seen in any movie lately and the cinematography is unbelievable. Also, Spanish model Jon Kortajarena has a small roll in the film. I must see this when it hits theaters. One more reason to love Tom Ford.


So Young, So Cool

The new editorial by Steven Meisel 'So Young, So Cool' has the models I wish I was photographing at this moment. I really like how many editorials revolve around the title and really don't have much of a concept around it. This is what is really troubling to me throughout my photographic classes at UNT. Sometimes I feel like I need this very deep concept where it is really visible through my pictures otherwise it wont be understood. When I think my concept and ideas are clear through my photos I get the opposite response. So what do I do since things haven't really worked in the past? Well, I think I will start off with a title and go from there. Anyway, enjoy these photos from Steven Meisel.
