on saturday brooklyn based teamed up the bell house to throw down with the 1st annual wedding crashers wedding fair. robin and i had been offered a spot on the guest list by freind and wedding photographer daniel krieger. although we’re fairly far along in planning our upcoming wedding there were a few people robin wanted to see and then there was the free food + free booze. as a cherry on top, metromix asked me if i would take a few photos for a web gallery. they didn’t end up running all of the photos i sent in, so i put them all together in a nice contact sheet style package. click on the above image to enlarge.

best of / year end / my favorites -> pt1
it’s been a heck of year – lot’s of highlights including getting engaged, teaching classes at nyu, trips to berlin, maine (x2) and california, canada (x2) showing work at the queens museum of art and art basel, getting published in a a couple of books, a bunch of magazines and the new york times (x2). these photos are from some of my favorite moments and include shots from the 2nd half of the year. part 2 (aka the first half of 2009) coming soon. many many thanks to everyone who helped me, inspired me and pushed me to be better throughout 2009. i am fully expecting 2010 to be an epic year!

winter farmer’s market
took a trip over to the prospect park farmer’s market a few saturdays back. all of the tender greens of the summer had been replaced with heartier winter greens and root vegetables (like the japanese turnips seen above and the kale seen below).
+bonus+ wreath made of wheat.

pho and a grilled shrimp dish from the new restaurant Obao. usually i try and avoid eating food at restaurant shoots, however this time around there was time to kill as the staff got the back of the restaurant ready to shoot (and it was dinner time) so I had a few bites. definitely recommended if you find yourself on 53rd street between 2nd and 3rd avenues.
