Ohne Titel Nr. 2

When you go and see a movie you expect illusion. When looking at photographs, we expect them to tell the truth. It is normal for our understanding that the scenes in a movie are created, while a photograph "snaps” a scene that might not have been created to be in a photograph. It lets us observe something that maybe was not supposed to be observed, it's the absence of story that lets us imagine more than there probably was.

Ethan Hawke

For days I’ve been on an Ethan Hawke marathon. Pouring over pictures, reading passages from his novels, and watching a daily diet of his films. I pretend to friends that this is a real chore. Secretly, I’ve been a virtual shut-in on a dopamine drip. For a moment last night, my DVD of Antoine Fuqua’s Training Day  turned frozen and I felt my body go limp and mouth the words, “do not fuck with my delivery system.” Looking over his history of films is a little like revisiting my own past, certain actors you can’t help but grow up with. I never had a poster of Mr. Hawke over my bed, or a t-shirt of his smoldering face with ETHAN emblazoned below, or a doll-size version of him in my knapsack.

Jena Malone

Jena Malone is on the move!  Even our interview takes place as she’s driving up US 395 on her way to Lake Tahoe. What's impressive, though, is not that she can talk and drive at the same time, but just how eloquent she is at fielding my questions while keeping an eye on the road ahead. 

Mary-Louise Parker

Mary-Louise Parker is exhausted. She is starring in two movies that both open today. She’s in the middle of moving her family to Brooklyn, but it’s not going smoothly, and she needs to find a sublet.  Plus, on what one assumes was her billionth press junket interview, she said something that is coming back to bite her in the ass. She said that she was thinking about quitting acting, due to the mean-spiritedness of the Internet. The Internet picked up on it, and has been having a field day with the story (SEE: Ironic). 

Heading Home

Lily Cole is a really, really smart model. Which makes her a fucking unicorn. They don’t make ‘em like this. She went to Cambridge. She wants to help those in need.

Hotel Memories

The portraits within this portfolio take place in various hotel rooms across the US. I chose the neutrality of hotels with the intention of creating an empty canvas while inviting a sense of intimacy. I asked each subject to relax and recall an emotional memory. The goal was to combine cinematic composition with genuine emotions.

5 Days With Alice

5 DAYS WITH ALICE is a self-portrait art project which purpose is to show some of the different faces & cliches of sexuality in the limited time of 5 days. From bondage, asphyxia, the use of childlike costumes, the fetishism of nails to the classical binomial of sexy girls & fast cars.

Catching Fire

Actress Jena Malone shared this very special portfolio of “stolen images” she collected while filming Catching Fire last winter in Atlanta and Hawaii. “We were not allowed to take photos on set, so I had to be a bit of a thief sometimes.” All photographed on her Nikon f100 film camera.

Dorothea Barth-Jörgensen

Swedish born model Dorothea Barth Jörgensen won the Elite modeling competition at the age at 16, moved to New York City a year later and has not stopped working since. Dorothea is a true beauty inside and out. She lights up the room upon entrance, her eyes filled with light and smile with warmth.

Rebecca Greenfield

Greenfield was recently invited to document the Star Wars Celebration VI, a convention that occupies the Orange County Convention Center in Florida. It is known as the ultimate fan experience and the biggest party this side of the galaxy, Star Wars Celebration brings fans of all ages together, from all points of the globe, to celebrate the pop-culture phenomenon that is Star Wars.
