I miss this. When I took this series of shots, it was like taking a snapshot of heaven. I was born for the water, you know, and being sick, not being able to do things like walk through the park, not being able to travel, not being able to do the few activities in life that bring me inimitable, superfluous-and-yet-I-have-to-have-it joy, not being able to live, it is really [...]
Everyone’s favorite accessory is their camera, it appears.
I’ve got mine. Have you got yours? RogueRanters, I’m told by many of you and many others that the new “It” profession is to be a photographer. Hmmm. I think my silly little pictures are fun, but do I know lighting? Do I have any dark room knowledge? Hell [...] A song: That you’ll love forever: Sam Cooke – “Cupid” To make you smile: Usher – “Love In This Club” That makes you sad: Temptations – “Wish It Would Rain” That brings back memories: The Dove Shack – “Summertime in the LBC” That you sing in the car: Randy Newman – “I Love L.A.” Set [...] Or W for me. Or GQ, or Wired, or Vanity Fair. No more Conde Nast. This evening, I sent Charles Townsend of Conde Nast an email regarding fashion photographers alleged transgressions, which include, but are not limited to molesting and taking advantage of young, impressionable models. You can read the contents of the email below, but please note until Conde Nast quits enabling people who clearly lack integrity, I will not be reading, quoting, [...] Chances are, RogueRanters, if Lindsay Lohan’s done it, it’s probably on the verge of being out of style. I know, I know. That’s stating the obvious. It’s just that I wish I had a dollar for every hack-friend of mine who’s come out with a leggings line these days. Let’s just say I’d mozy on over to the bar and buy everyone a round with the kind of money I’d [...] Yesterday afternoon, feeling well enough to walk about, I decided I was going to go for a walk along the shoreline. My roommate Ross decided he would come with, which was perfect, because I needed someone to carry the laundry I told Keegs I would pick up for him- and the groceries! Along with suckering him into helping me, he’s pretty gentlemanly about these things so it never takes [...] The letters A-S-S. So let me be one, in honor of Garance‘s post about Emmanuelle Alt‘s and her own basic fashion staples, and describe to you my own 10 most basic items that I require to feel fancy-free and fabulous . . . 1. An Inspiring Haircut. I need to be inspired by my hair. When it looks blah, I feel blah. Whether it be long hippie locks, wavy layers, a chic razored bob, [...] Conversation between me and fellow cafe regular: Him: I just have to say I love your style. Me: Thanks. Him: I love it. You’re edgy without being a hipster weirdo. Me: Oh geez, do you have hipster-phobia? Him: Oh, no. I mean, are you a hipster? I’m sorry if I offended you. Me: No, definitely not a hipster. It takes way too much effort to look that greasy, but I do love to make [...] The scene of the crime, my family library., originally uploaded by jacqueline.fonte. This is what my life looked like for awhile. Piles of clothes everywhere, stacks of Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, GQ, W, tubes of paint, random check books in my metal painting briefcase, unfinished paintings littering the background. The books everywhere around me, dusty, full of interesting smells only found from years of sitting on a shelf or being dragged around [...] Oncoming cars, meet traffic lights, originally uploaded by jacqueline.fonte. Whenever I go on a road trip and I’m not driving, I try to count the little stripes of paint on the road to keep my mind off of things. It is a strange thing to take a photo of oncoming traffic from the middle of the street. You can see the Sun rising in the [...] |
