Camille Leon and the Red Flag
This was a shoot that came together in my mind a couple weeks ago. I'd seen Camille Leon perform this number at the Kiss Kiss Cabaret and I thought it would make for a very cool studio shot, and a great opportunity to break out the Lensbaby.
Camille Leon
Camille was wonderful. She nailed the attitude and spun that flag over and over again until we got the right look. More images from this set to come, but in the meantime here are some performance shots of the number.

City of Samba
I've been a big Keith Loutit fan for a long time. If you look back through my blog, I've posted links to a couple videos which I've always found really inspiring. Well Saturday night I was talking to my girlfriend and for whatever reason his name came up and I decided to check in and see what was new on his vimeo page. Turns out not a whole lot... because he's working on a multiple city project and posting to his personal page now. The project, titled "Small Worlds Project", looks amazing and I can't wait to see how it grows. It's really groundbreaking stuff and I encourage you to take a look.

Jackson Square
One of the world's great squares. Great restaurants, street performers, and artists converge here day and night. Lenny Kravitz once joined in with some musicians playing just below where I took this picture from. And not pictured but just to the right is the home of the legendary Cafe Du Monde.

Being on top of a building with binoculars is one of the coolest experiences you can give to a young person.
