Grandma’s House
posted on April 21st, 2010 by Tamar. filed under thisisaphotoblog.
I have been in New York for the past ten days for a work/family/friends trip. Every time I come up it is a whirlwind. This time I spent some time meeting with people about my portfolio, one day photographing, almost all the nights with friends, visits to the MoMA and Natural History Museum, a wonderful burlesque club called The Box, a couple days with my aunt & uncle in Poughkeepsie, and one day in Long Island visiting my grandmother.
Last time I came up to Long Island I interviewed my grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, speaking about her experience. This time I photographed her house, the place I spent many weekends as a child. Below are some of the photos I took!

So many friends are getting married this year! This time I photographed an engagement session for my friend and wonderful makeup artist, Erica. Her and her fiance Benji came over and we drove to an amazing spot near Beachwood Canyon. Here are some of their selects!

I photographed my friends Ashley and Theo the other day for their engagement pics! It was super nice and relaxing to do some natural shots of one of my very best friends. Their wedding is in a few weeks. They are great people and a great set of people!

Kelsey Brooks for Nylon Guys

A couple months ago I was asked to drive to San Diego to photograph the very talented artist Kelsey Brooks for Nylon Guys Magazine. Ollie was amazing enough to come down with me. As we always do, we had a great time! We gave Kelsey quite a workout by having him do back flips, front flips, hand stands, and more. Here is the final image, below! Please click on it to enlarge and go to your local newsstand or bookshop for the March Issue of Nylon Guys!
XCVI Fall ‘10

Last week I photographed the XCVI Fall ‘10 clothing line. This time we mixed things up a bit by shooting in their warehouse in Los Angeles. It was neat to see where the magic happens!
The photo shoot was really fun. We had bags and bags of feathers to play with, a few fans, a wonderful model and crew. Please click on the photo below to see a web gallery of all the final images!
While I was taking pictures, Daniela from XCVI made a video! You can check it out here:
Dum Dum Girls for Nylon Magazine
posted on February 24th, 2010 by Tamar. filed under editorial.
The other week I was sent to one of my favorite late-night diners called The Brite Spot in Echo Park to photograph Dee Dee of the Dum Dum Girls. It was a super quick shoot (we had no permit to shoot there and weren’t allowed lights), but definitely fun nonetheless! Below is a tear from the magazine. The issue is out now! Go to your local magazine stand or book shop and look for the Nylon Magazine March issue.

Here are some outtakes from the shoot:
