                                            have fun, shoot that smile, be wild.
             live unexpected.

12.7.2013

even on a shit day.
look good great.

style tip
i like standing out with colors on 
cloudy, rainy, gloomy days.
it helps me not get moody just because 
of the weather.

    arrogant humility.

now, i just think it's funny how people like to put labels on me.
thank you ;)

    i'd rather be all those labels than phony, loves.

  enjoy the 'fit... 
basic and hard to see (i know) but it'll do.

"We Make a Living by What We Get...
...We Make a Life by What We Give."
-Sir Winston Churchill 

so i went to work today.
but i wasn't scheduled to work -__-
a bit annoyed..
lifted my day by finally getting my gold iphone 5s though.

when i realized i had the whole day free, 
first thing that came to mind was to shoot my outfit.
took me about 3 hours to find someone.fuckers.

and on. the outfit itself.
was sort of inspired by my father.
if you follow my instagram, you'll know my dad is where it all started for me.
growing up, this guy was sharp. politician sharp.
now i have to scavenge for a quality photo of him.

"She mounted the breeze

And shook the trees

Bringing our love to its knees.
“I’m not jaded,

Please look at me,

Look deeply and say goodbye,”
She rustles the rust from the waving limbs,
“…Here’s your beloved azurite sky.”

It’s raining saffron and crimson leaves
As Autumn throws on her coat
She’s gone again,
And all I have
Are the tears she left on this note."
~Skip Maselli, "Autumn Left A Note"

Winters transparent coat, the blustery cape of a November morning

Swings downward, erratically and with ultimate force, 

A barbarous mixing of air and below zero climes, snatched
From some icy landmass and thrown, shockingly southward...
~Laurence E. Bourke, "November Cold"


finally having fun with an actual camera 
(all my previous posts were from camera phones) shhhh

so, i haven't posted in a while.
we can thank the cold weather and the flu for that -__-
anyway, i fought through it and i am back!

today, my beautiful girlfriend and i messed around 
where i live, and took these shots at the sweet train station.
i've been to this stop countless times and never really appreciated
how beautiful it is. 
again, right now, i live in an area call chestnut hill.
the train station here says tons about the area.

moving on...

it's time to take your fucking scarves out!

Today, we got to shoot in our neighborhood..
Good 'ol, beautiful, Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia.
A small part of town that's probably only 2 miles of Germantown Ave.

Shooting in town was pretty cool!  Locals kept passing by and
instead of looking at us like "WTF?!", every single one smiled and appreciated 
what we were doing.  

Anyway, as for the look, today was pretty fucking cold.
Had to pull out the hooded peacoat for sure!
Tip for my readers, if you don't already do this...
Don't be scared to try the opposite sex's clothes. Plenty of times
I've seen clothes, accessories, etc that looked so much nicer than
the men's selection!
Also, I really just wanted to showcase the Fred Perry X Raf Simons Shirt
I picked up at a local consignment shop (Green St. Consignment).

Now, if you're still reading and didn't skip my writing, here's the shoot 
=)

Bittersweet October. The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause between the opposing miseries of summer and winter.  ~Carol Bishop Hipps, "October,"In a Southern Garden

It's Autumn guys! My favorite season of the year!
Even though it was actually pretty hot and humid today, 
I insisted on taking out the thicker layers just for this outfit.

Today, my brother Albie and I went to our old stomping 
ground by the creek near our college.
I wanted a beautiful back-drop to match the beautiful outfit!
This was tons of fun for the both of us...

She told me, "Take a deep breathe, don't worry about being the best out."


10.5.2013 Reminiscing California

10.5.2013

california, on my mind.

spent a good amount of time lately missing cali.
my last trip there set my mind to moving out west from philly.

visited my parents in SF, wine tasting in Napa, 7 hour drive to LA on rt.1 (PCH), drive to SD
the worst part of the trip was leaving.

i tell ya, cali is the lifestyle.
i've had people argue with me about cali being terrible. 
those people, have never been to...
california is the place for me

anyway, here's my fav. picture from the trip.
