This frame is one shot by Chris. He is a film master. And this shot just stopped me dead in my tracks. This is a scanned neg left over from Fuji FP-3000B from our shoot on Friday. This is Tyler and I think his tattoos are beautiful. Film seemed to capture Tyler best. I cannot wait to share the full shoot with you.
We're leaving for NYC this week so I'm frantically trying to get things done around the office, push photos out the door and arrange things for our trip. We just booked a room at The Standard for while we'll be in town and it looks pretty sick. I'm stoked about the trip. That city inspires the heck out of me. If any of you New Yorker folks have recommendations on your favorite places to eat/shop/grab coffee etc. hit us up with the rec's we would love them!
Happy Monday!

I second the Fuerza Bruta recommendation .. is sick! .. and you can just go there and get cheap tickets.
eats:
shopsin's @ essex street market for eclectic american.
hyo-dong-gak in midtown (35th b/t 5th and 6th) for amazing korean/chinese noodles -- try their ja-jang-myun and tang-su-yuk. trust me.
carmines in the theatre district for family-style italian.
megu in tribeca for upscale japanese and a big ice-sculpture buddha. :P
theatre:
SEE 'FUERZA BRUTA'. TRUST ME.
if you need a last minute place to crash in williamsburg, my sister and bro-in-law have a pull out if you don't mind a cat sharing :)
sick tattoo indeed. can't wait to see this set!
my 2 cents for NYC recommendations...
Best Falafels.. Mamoun's Falafel - Greenwich Village.. it's a stroll from Wasington Square Park. tasty stuff!
Coffee, Deli and grocery.. ZABAR's - Upper West Side.. me and my wife ordered some lunch and we walked to Central Park and had a picnic... romantic.
enjoy NYC. safe trip.
@everyone!! Thank you all for your great recs! We're so excited to try some of these places out!
When we lived in NYC a couple of years ago, our very favorite places were right in our neighborhood:
Grey Dog's Coffee at 33 Carmine St. (strong coffee, amazing muffins and sandwiches, etc. and long lines:) and Blue Ribbon Bakery (at Bedford & Downing) but we're biased - we lived in the same building as that one... Both are in the West Village. Have a wonderful trip!! :)
Ohhhh the Standard!!! Lucky! The Chelsea Market is near by, it's worth getting a spicy hot chocolate from the hot chocolate bar there and wandering along The Highline and underneath The Standard - it's one of my NY highlights. Have fun!
if you want good coffee, NYC is the place to be! these are some of the best coffee spots:
- cafe grumpy
- gimme coffee
- joe the art of coffee
- abraco
The Standard is quite funky/cool, you'll be EXTREMELY inspired there! It's quite the opposite of "standard," but you'll figure that out once you just see their sign!
Best of luck!
Sarah, you are so right. Film suits him incredibly. I don't know the guy, but I get such a sense of his character and story from this photograph. Incredible.
The best japanese/sushi in the City is at Kodama, on 45th and 8th. Killer. The best burgers and chicken is at Island Burger, on 9th between 51st and 52nd. Mmmm. Enjoy your time in New York! Hopefully the sunshine comes out to play while you're here... :)
great shot!
MEOW!!
great image!
and eats:
little giant
lupa
spice market( ginger margaritas awesome!)
taim falafel & smoothie bar( best falafel ever...)
enjoy
inoteca, italian, lower east side, great for wine and cheese...
That hotel looks awesome! I've heard of it before in this funky hotel book I have!
love this!
Chris and Sarah, Epic photo. The toning is great. Have fun in NYC, you'll love the Standard. There is a place called "The Red Cat" up the street that is seriously amazing! Some of the best cuisine in NYC (and that is saying *so* much). Again, it was cool meeting/hanging out with you guys in Vegas. Keep it awesome.
very nice.
