the sarah project: hardly working

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

For this week’s edition of The Sarah Project I was transformed into a construction worker complete with a paper bag toolbelt, hard hat and beer gut (no offense intended for you fit construction workers). Not much of a story here, just a silly outfit.

Enjoy!

the sarah project: indiana hanks

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

I’m officially declaring Wednesday “The Sarah Project” day, well at least here on fancy seeing you here. Each week I’ll share my latest and greatest shoots and any other stories that go along with them. This week’s feature is Indiana Hanks where I come across a saber tooth tiger that attacks me, but in the end we become best friends.

p.s. Be sure to check out ZonaFoto‘s beautiful Jersey Shore polaroid series here.

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

This is a small selection of images from a silly project i’ve been doing at work; The Sarah Project. Every day at around 3 i have a mini photoshoot at my desk using props and stuff that i’ve gathered from around the office. I’m hoping to keep this up for a year and maybe even start a website for it. It’s actually quite amusing and fun, although some might think I’m a total nut. I think one of my favorite and most innovative uses of a prop is the poster tube turned into a peg arm for my pirate series. FYI, I’m taking character requests if you have any suggestions.

scenes from the weekend

Monday, May 17th, 2010


I had the most wonderful long weekend visiting my good friend ZonaFoto in New York and New Jersey. The weekend started off on Friday with a full day in NYC—Soho shopping, The Impossible Project store and a breathtaking performance by the Sa Dance Company. On Saturday we took a trip to the Jersey shore, Seaside Heights to be exact. It was a lot bright colors, cheesy games, vintage signage, fried food and stuffed animals, no snooki sightings though. On the last day we headed back into the city for a visit to the Lomo store and a couple visits to Kid Robot. All in all, a fantastic, busy, tiring and inspiring weekend…sigh, now back to reality.

Sorry I’ve been absent for the past few day—it’s been a whirlwind of a week for me to say the least. In the meantime check out  Zona Foto‘s most recent shoot here and here. I love the dreamy, whimsical and retro quality of these pictures. The two above are my favorite from the series, but really I love them all.

Have a great weekend!

How cute are these girls on their bikes??? Especially Twiggy pictured on the right. Swoon, she’s one of my favorite style icons. Chicks and Bikes is one the best blogs to find great photos of women and their bikes. This reminds me that I need to be on the lookout for the three-wheeled bike that I am dying to own!

While I am not a photographer by any means I love experimenting, especially with all the toy cameras out there; the Diana, the fish-eye and the holga. Here are some of my favorites pictures from my recent trips.
