Get your girl to say yes

February 6, 2010

Some inspiration given the 14th is heading our way.

If no inspiration needed, look on anyway. Secretly filmed, it’s a good tear jerker, incredibly sweet and seriously, what a guy.

Casey proposes to Amy from One Small Instrument Pictures on Vimeo.

Tim Robbins

January 31, 2010

Back from a few days in Sydney shooting Tim Robbins for his upcoming album release. He was in town performing with the Rogue Gallery at the foot of the Sydney Opera House. My australian assistant Andrea and the epk team (behind the scenes) Ben and Damien had a fantastic day/evening, Tim is great and very lovely (I had so many offers of assistance for this job!). I can’t wait to hear the new album when it’s released later in the year.

This was our view during the concert…

Janet Palmer: Awesomeness x 1000 !

Kristen Cook: Still loving this image so much! And not just because of where you're standing... LOL

Cass: Wow wow wow! AMAZING! And now more please!

Gemma Higgins-Sears: WOW. That is INSANE. LOVE the sky, that is just gorgeous. congrats too xx

Carissa Little: Awesome, the sky is amazing and I love the Opera House

Cass: Looks even better on my home computer - the sky is indeed just stunning, especially with the Opera House all lit up beneath it! What an amazing atmosphere!

hailey: ooh sooo fun! Beautiful image too!

Check It.
