As you may know, I have a huge fan of fashion photography, especially the art of David Lachapelle. However, I have stumbled upon (via myspace… shut it! I know you still have a profile there)  German photographer/artist Tina Cassati. I seriously couldn’t understand her website because it was in German. ( I only know ‘Shizer’, shizerkapt, KaufHauf, and  ’Das iz mein Stool’ courtesy of a summer spent in Nuremberg during my youth.) So I have no idea where she was published, what campaigns she’s done, or where she went to school- the only thing I know is that she’s German and she has the coolest photos! Check out her myspace and see more photos, especially the ones with the Matthew Barney looking dude. Good Stuff!

Jesus is my Homeboy

My all-time favorite photographer, David LaChapelle, did a thought provoking spread for I-D magazine. I think this is one of LaChapelle’s more profound collection of works. Those of you not familiar with LaChapelle’s work,  his distinct photos paint a vivid picture worth looking at for hours since each photo’s story unfolds before your eyes. He also is known for his fashion influenced and celebrity models in his photos. Add a splash of color and humor and you’ve got a distinguishable David LaChapelle photo. So , is Jesus your homeboy? Makes you wonder if he really sees us like this… 

PS- check out my interview with David LaChapelle for his feature movie, ‘Rize’ .
