Influencers ~ 31 - 52

I've often wondered what it was about certain people / celebrities / style and taste makers that made the masses follow them. This is a subject that has intrigued me since I was a child so the video below, written and directed by Paul Rojanathara and Davis Johnson, helps illustrate the concepts and ideas that help make up the influencers of our time, particularly in pop culture and art. This is a cool documentary which has been blogged to death for the past month or so and features some top Influencers of today.

Are you an Influencer??

week 29 and counting (or something like that)

Last month was crazy to say the least but things have been rolling along this month so far. As you know, I've been working on this 52 weeks project since roughly the beginning of the year. I confess, I've missed a few weeks, however, I've been able to muster up some self portrait goodness to make up for it. Along with that, of course, is the constant school and business "grind", so bare with me as I flood my blog with tons of images over the next week or so. I've had some amazing shoots with some amazing people and it is my duty to show some of the work here....

I know I know, but I just couldn't resist doing one of these using NIke's brilliant become Mars marketing tool. To me, Spike's movie, She's Gotta Have It, helped define an era I grew up in and I'm still tickled by Spike's performance as the one and only Mars Blackmon. For the youngsters who only know the character through the latest series of Nike commercials, heres a more formal introduction....
