Them Thangs

My old friend Justin's blog is back up after a hiatus...he has always had the most amazing aesthetic and he shares my love of black and white photos, biker gangs, hot girls, and aging musicians among other weird cultish thangs.  Check it out if you haven't already.  Apparently it was quite big before he shut it down.

birthday

my beautiful mother and me

its been storming here like crazy.  This is an outtake from a fashion story I shot for Signature Magazine coming out in March. 

Is it a dream
Keeping you awake
Is it the stillness that makes you shake?
If you need to know for sure
What's on the ocean's floor
You'll sink

Do you like things the way they seem
Or are you looking behind the scenes
Well if you gotta know
What it takes to make it so
Just believe

Are there dark spots to your mind
Hidden secrets left behind
Where no one ever goes
Everybody knows
It's alright

Do you get dizzy
On the ground?
There must be something
Going around
What blows us here today
Will blow us all away

The breeze

I had a huge pre-teen crush on him now looking back at all these old pictures it is easy to understand why...he wore Betsy Johnson tights, dated Stephanie Seymore, and had amazing hair.
