Ricorso Branding
Working with Rhea for the initial branding for Ricorso was such a pleasure. Ricorso is the evolution of the Kirk James label, and the hallmarks of their company are classic silhouettes with a modern edge for elegant and sophisticated style.
Fashion Photography featuring Lara Miller designs
Lara Miller is an incredible green designer and all her hand-loomed garments are crafted in the USA from sustainable fabrics. I photographed her Spring 2012 collection at Macy’s and worked with model Valentine. Lara also has a habit of naming her designs after people she knows – so check out the “Bret necklace” here – which is fairly cool.
Editorial Photography featuring Mondo Guerra and his fashions
My shoot with Mondo Guerra was my last shoot with MintMale, and it was incredibly involved. We were at Maxine’s Salon in downtown Chicago. The actual location was a loft type living space on the roof of the salon, and the stylists were wonderful. Mondo was going for this”Blade Runner” meets meets slick mannequin look, and I had the models do a lot of stylized poses while leaping in the air. The eye-visors Mondo also designed, and the white wigs were shaped by the people at the salon. A film crew was following me as I was working. Forward Motion Media was creating a mini documentary as a commercial for the salon, and we did testimonials as well on the collaboration with MintMale, Mondo, me and the salon.

Model Photography: Chris Hongosh
I’ve been wanting to do some moody post-production work, and my shoot with Chris was the perfect opportunity to play with Photoshop.
Model Photography: Kyle Kreitmeyer
Kyle was our featured model for the December Mini Mint, and we also featured some stores as well. Sort of a Christmas wish list. I took photos of him at Kafka, Cram, His Stuff, and Brimfield.
