A couple nights ago I went out to shoot some pictures with help from emerging photographers Baptiste Enard (bottom pic) and Thomas Brandenburg (top pic). These shots were taken where Bridgeport and Chinatown meet, on Chicago’s south side.
Not to be confused with the vibraband player who shares his name, this Stan Wood is the one you may remember as someone who doesn’t do reality, but does play in the band onYou. I shot this picture a couple weeks ago at the bacherlorette party of a good friend of ours.
I’ve been having a good time shooting portraits for Luxe magazine’s “Style Makers” section–I shot one a couple weeks ago, and the portrait above appeared in the Spring 2010 edition. These assignments are a treat for me; the section runs black and white photos, which I love to shoot, and the subjects have been fascinating people in interesting spaces. The Renaissance man pictured is architect, painter, sculptor, writer, critic, and poet Christian K. Narkiewicz-Laine.
Available light shot of Velouria Adore, from a test shoot last week.

Kennedy Greenrod performed with The Thin Man at the Burning Whale benefit last Friday night, held at Bridgeport Chicago’s Co-Prosperity Sphere.
Here’s a picture of the sensational masked rock ensemble The Goblins, not to be confused with Italian prog-rockers Goblin, the California metal band Goblin Cock, or the Serbian punk outfit Goblini. Somebody needs to start a Wikipedia page on these guys.
