i came across this classic beer campaign last week whilst working on a job, i don’t post much advertising work on this blog but the ‘miller high life’ from the mid 90’s remains one of the best in its sort, see the whole beautifully written/directed & executed series by director ‘errol morris’ here

we spent last friday in a dance studio with mister ‘ruud baan’ shooting the first of the new poster image series for the dutch national ballet (season 12-13)
many thanks to everyone who helped to make it a successful day, including firstly ruud of course but also the dancers (‘anna tsygankova’ from russia, ‘james stout’ from canada, ‘anatole babenko’ from russia, ‘sebastien galtier’ from france and ‘jared wright’ from australia) and my clients ‘ted and sandra’ who all worked very hard to make the image we wanted…
it was quite an unusual idea this one and i’ll post some more image as soon as we have sorted it all out, should be great when finished i think
my evening with marilyn monroe
…originally an inside opener for Rolling Stone cover story of Nirvana in conjunction with the release of In Utero, my first Polaroid (with Negative) was by far the most emotional and revealing of his spirit. Two months later Kurt died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head. This photograph became the memorial RS cover…
the faces behind the ‘faces’ tell their story
dear photograph…
…started off as a nice nostalgic blog with six pictures of old family snaps lined up in their original setting…
then it went viral

i’m currently reading the hilarious account of his years as ‘gonzo reporter’ for rolling stone magazine so have a personal interest in these images by the fabulous hunter thompson taken during his somewhat risky period spent living amongst some of californias’ most violent hells angels in the 60’s… the blackeye shown above was a ‘leaving present’
i also love the ‘edgar hoover’ target in his own backyard, if you haven’t read the ‘angels’ book i urge you to do so… thrilling stuff, in fact read all of his books
