Spring 2011 and some poses

SAFP says yes to practicing your craft:

I am posting this after a recent shoot with a beautiful model that was pretty new to being in front of a camera. It took a lot of time for her to get comfortable with the idea of not over thinking it and just being herself. The inspiration has to come from somewhere. There are lookbooks everywhere, this one is just models doing their thing for Cushnie Et Ochs (via refinerey29.com) with all the snow and cold here without winter officially starting yet I am posting these pictures of what spring should look like in 2011. out

See more designer lookbooks.

 

Rhymefest campaign Kickoff at the Shrine

Some pictures of Rhymefest's campaign kickoff at the Shrine. Fest brings 'em out even on a Sunday.

The dope part was that there was a good mix of people - man of the people style. Since he announced his candidacy they have gotten right into him for previous infractions but this seems to be the way of communities adn the peope that comprise them. People make mistakes and at some point you need to give them space to get past it. Focus your lens on communities and you can't just keep tearing down the bricks and mortar of a neighborhood and think that you are truly changing an area for the better. This going to be an interesting election year in Chicago.
