Prison Pose

I'm on this prison pose kick right now.

For those not in the know.

Prison Pose defined:

A term used to describe a picture pose where the person/people being photographed are crouched down and trying to look tough.

You'll be surprised how universal this pose is.

Nick McPherson is one of my favorite people on the planet. I've worked with a lot of artists/creative folks if you will, but doing projects with Nick is way better because we don't even really have to talk to each other. He just shows up and the rest is history.

Here's just a few flicks of the fury via Nick's lens.



This is my best friend Carly she is probably more creative than anyone I have ever known.



Portrait of a young man.



2 Paw? Really? You guys are just phoning it in over at the gangster dog sticker company I guess.



This is Tookie. He lives on Nick's couch during the weekend. He isn't trying to be ironic or funny. Dude is dead serious. He is also a keen expert on traveling minor league soccer team gang bangs.



Any chicken test....dead!!!

How f*ckin cool is this? This is our president! I mean whether dude pans out to be half as good as everyone seems to believe has yet to be seen, but the fact that we elected "Cool Breeze" Barack gives me a little more hope for the country I call home.

Let your mind go to gutter if you need to, but it demonstrates good greyscale too.

See what I did there? We made learning, fun!

Dancehall: The Rise of Jamaican Dancehall Culture

I came across this book a few months ago and immediately wolfed it. I had no idea it existed until I saw it on the shelf. The book features photos from Beth Lesser who apparently was living in JA during the eighties who somehow managed to live and photograph nearly everyone that was relevant in dancehall at the time.

The book is full of photos of nearly everyone: Tiger, Johnny Osbourne, Johnny Clarke, Purple Man, Yami Bolo, Pinchers, Prince Jazzbo, Jammy, Nitty Gritty, Cocoa Tea, Admiral Bailey, and the list goes on.

Besides the photos there is a good amount of insightful writing about dancehall culture, artist bios, life in Waterhouse, Jamaican culture, and so on.

Obviously, I am a complete geek for this book, but you have to understand how rare it is for someone to have photos from this era. Jamaica has always been a third world country and outsiders are not welcomed in. It is a gross stereotype to think Jamaica is this warm an serene place. Most folks think of resorts and postcard esq beaches which is true when you're staying at a resort, but when you actually are born and raised in Jamaica it is a whole different scene.

Thankfully someone managed to capture the era on film.

Here's some of my favorite pics from the book.

I can't tell how much photoshop was used in this flick, but regardless it looks cool.

Unless this was photoshop'd then it would be the design of the day.

Inna Swap Meet Stylee

Made it back from San Diego in one piece. I didn't take too many flicks and I didn't get to see a lot of people or do much since my i.d was lost on the flight in. If that wasn't enough my camera was stolen on the flight home. It was a smaller digi, but the inconvenience is huge. I practically feel naked without a camera.

Any how, I did shoot a few flicks at the swap meet on Saturday with a friend. The real draw is always in the people who attend said swap meets and not the actual items for sale, but as it was the holidays I didn't feel like photo sniping any one.





This is me staring down this guy who told us not to take pictures. What could he possibly be worried about? Maybe he was scared that I would discover his secret on how to be the world's biggest dick head?



Muerte.



Accidental misfire that looks super "artsy".



Nesting dolls are the new black.



White people love buying things that are considered "ethnic." Take these masks for example. On a scale of 1 - 10 on things white people deem as ethnic these probably rank around an 8. They of course would score a perfect 10 if they were purchased on a cruise ship stop in Bermuda.



In the world of the blind the man with one eye is king.



¡Lucha Lucha Lucha!



Should have grabbed one of these.



Never get tired of these skulls for some reason.
