Mistakes Were Made

Next Wednesday, October 12th I'll be showing a group of photos alongside art by my good friend Calder Zwicky. It will be like this blog but printed out and framed. There will be beer and if you come I will give it to you along with my profound gratitude.  I love you. Thanks.

#1 D.A.D.s 2015

This is the 4^th installment of #1 D.A.D.s, my annual(ish) rogues gallery / award show of some of the people who have been kind enough to let me take their photo. There are actors, acrobats, authors, comedians, curators, dancers, designers, doctors, drunks, DJs, editors, filmmakers, gallerists, graffitos, journalists, models, musicians, organizers,  photographers, poets, provocateurs, publishers, rappers, singers, skaters, storytellers,  tastemakers, tweeters, and more.

#1 D.A.D.s is a post that I look forward to and enjoy putting together each year, and serves to remind me of the amazing community of creative people that I am lucky to be surrounded by. Previous posts can be seen here: 2012, 2013, & 2014.

I was very busy this year and I dropped the ball as a blogger. Instagram is fun and has made it harder to get people to click on a link to just look at pictures these days, and has also made “documenting” events feel a little less urgent.  I chose to focus on spending time with many of the people you see pictured here, visiting their homes and studios and asking them about what they do. It was fascinating to see behind the curtain on people’s process and hear their stories, and I’m enormously grateful that they took time for me.

Huge thanks to everyone featured here, thanks Max Fish for being the club house, and THANK YOU for looking.

Without further ado, I give you the #1 D.A.D.s class of 2015:
