Major Catch Up Time

Yes, folks it's been a while. I am way behind on posting so I'm just going for a quick recap of the last few months and hopefully I can get back into a regular schedule.

It's been very busy around these parts, mostly with work and holiday time. I've been getting a lot busier with assisting jobs, some of them really cool. I've done a few jobs with a photographer who shoots for Real Simple. She shoots their paper sculptures for the section title pages. Here's the artist who makes them, with the photographer working on the champagne bottle:



I've also been assisting a home/interiors/still life guy who I found in Real Simple. I've worked with him on jobs for Glamour, In Style and Natural Health so far. Here are a few pics from these jobs.

Caitlin (the other assistant) looks bored. She was fun to work with.

Before!

After!

These are from a shoot at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia studios in Chelsea, the site of my very first assisting gig in new york. This time I felt more prepared, more confident and relaxed. Then I found out that the photographer shoots a roll of film in about 15 seconds! Luckily there was another assistant so we were able to keep up with him, but barely! He shot over a hundred rolls of film of two set ups. Of course, when you are working with animals it can be difficult. We shot a blue eyed white dwarf rabbit and some geese. I didn't realize how loud geese are...
