Shoe Star Elimination 1

I have been shooting the stills for this project for FN for a few months now.

This is like the footwear version of project runway. If you like shoes and reality TV then this next clip is for you.


Nine West FN Shoe Star Episode 2 - Elimination 1

Asi Wind on VH1's Celebracadabra

So I was up late a couple of nights ago, transferring this big job to the WWD server (more on that later.) I was watching VH1 and who did I see on their new celeb reality show about magic but Asi Wind. I did a party with him on New Year's eve and he is amazing.


Each celeb is paired up with a magician. Asi is teaching Ant. Ant is being painted as the shows villain. This means that the producers will keep him on for as long as possible the maximum amount of drama.

Daft Punk Cresendolls

I have had this song in my head for days and wanted to share it. It is from Daft Punk's Discovery album. The video is from an anime film called Interstella 5555. The film is the set to the entire album Discovery.

Jefrey Fashion Cares '08

Last week I shot the Jeffrey Fashion Cares 5th annual charity event for DNR and FN.

Jeffrey and his staff have always done a great job putting on a wonderful event and this year was no different. It was twice the size of last year's event. The money raised goes to Lambda Legal, Gay Men's Health Crisis, and the Hetrick-Martin Institute, home of the Harvey Milk High School.

Jeffrey Kalinsky

Jeffrey was coordinating and making sure that everything was perfect with serious focus. His shoes however told a different story. Seeing as how I was there for FN I had the chance to capture them. They were crazy.

It was a night of a thousand reality stars, well a half dozen any way. There was the latest Project Runway winner Christian Siriano.

Project Runway Judge and former(?) Elle Fashion Director Nina Garcia was also there.

The Bravo Family was out in force. It is NBC's gay channel and this was a very gay event, so it was fitting.

Jack Mackenroth, and Carson Kressley

After the cocktail reception there was a fashion show. Here are some of the highlights.

The Mark Hotel

My dear friend James Sherwin is taking over the helm at The Mark Hotel. The NY Times has done a great article about the hotel featuring oodles of great quotes from James and a photo of him to boot.
