Inspiration: The Sartorialist

As a photographer, manager, home owner, human, I find I take inspiration from many places... a lot of them other blogs. So I'm starting a new series: Inspiration.

Today's inspiration was a random moment at a wedding. This guy is totally amazing. He's like Richard Little meets Tony Soprano in Brooklyn Park.



Awesome.
The Sartorialist is one of the first blogs I ever read (if Live Journal doesn't count). I don't actually dress with much of a fashion sense (my favorite accessories are my Frye Boots and my Anthropologie Sunglasses) but I can recognize one. Scott Schuman actually knows what fashion is, and I once asked if I could travel with him to be his Italian translator (he never responded, what a snob). I think the guy in this picture would probably fail out of Sartorialst school, but the image is definitely Scott Schuman inspired.

Right outside our hotel room... too bad we weren't there longer :(

Retro is cool

Everyone loves retro things these days. The Smurfs, Rainbow Brite, My Little Pony, and even Benihana's are making a comeback. My mom just brought me a "family heirloom" to use. It's a 35+ year old 55mm 1.2mm that I shot my first SLR picture with, and it just so happens that it still works, even on my DSLR body.



I call it, a study on Depth of Field

Thanks Mom
