CANON WP1 35MM

We shot these with the Canon WP-1 35mm waterproof film camera. A lot people praise the “disposable” factor when talking in regards to this particular 35mm relic, and let us not forget, you can completely submerge this baby in water. Due to the temperature on this particular day we decided to keep Bella dry while doing a field-test. As you can see it isn’t the sharpest camera available but it sure is fun. There was something exciting about knowing you can take this on land and sea, surf and turf, bed sheets or champagne showers. Fuck that’s cool. Not to bore you with all of the tech info that you can easily uncover with one quick google search, we will sum this up with this, if you want something lo-fi to take on vacation that shoots at a decent speed and gives you a drug-store effect, this is a perfect option. Sharp shooters need not bother. Bottom line, it doesn’t matter what you use as long as you are out there ‘using it’. Stay active, stay creative and never stop exploring your imagination.

ALISON MOSSHART OPENING

We stopped by the Alison Mosshart opening at the Maxfield Gallery yesterday. Alison makes up one half of the band, The Kills, whom I’ve adored since I stumbled upon their Black Balloon video eight or nine years ago. Creativity is something that transcends way past music with this power duo as you can clearly see through their book captured by Kenneth Cappello (who also directed the video aforementioned). In the pages you get a very honest and candid viewpoint of the band as you explore and discover what lies beneath the surface, which brings us to today. Along the white, mundane walls, you experience palettes of color and aggression. You see thoughts and opinions splashed on to the canvases as if the artist is screaming out loud the pages of her visual diary. Supplementary to the artwork itself, the woman behind it was soft-spoken, kind and fascinatingly human. She has an energy that leaps through and embraces you like a gentle hug from a place familiar. Bravo, Alison.

FIRST DAY AT HER NEW JOB

The girl started her new job and I couldn’t be more proud of her. There’s truly nothing more magical than finding someone who inspires you. Someone you can build and create memories with as well as shares your creative attributes. We don’t allow phones on our dinning table and rather then scrolling through social media, we flip through magazines and books and get lost in galleries and structures that provoke conversations and thoughts. We’re just as passionate about what surrounds us as we are about each other. And that my friends, took me forever to finally find. I can’t wait to share more with you guys about the projects she’s going to be doing. I’ll be sure to post it on here or just have her do it. 

And to those of you who have been calling us “couple goals”, we always smile and say thank you
