I'm never one to drop a heavy post on you headed into the weekend. So this one is light. So light in fact that it floats in the air like your morning toast and coffee and orange juice you're about to eat. You may have caught this a couple weeks ago, but I was too buried to share it. So here 'tis. Consider this while you're grabbing brunch over the next two days. The above...

Looking at more than 1000 images a day is a real treat. And pulling out 100 to 200 each day for printing is even cooler. It's sort of like dipping my hand in a river at any one time, and being able to pull out a slice of life. Here's four of the 150 I pulled out today. Props to their respective creators, listed below. A broad spectrum - but that's what I love. Lemme...

You knew it was coming. A bazillion of you have been asking and now you are among the first to know: the Polaroid GL10 Mobile Instant Printer that was announced back at CES in January is now available for pre-order, but more importantly, it will hit some actual retail shelves first thing this morning in limited quantities. The GL10 (I've been fondly calling it the Polaprinter) was...

Since we're not tracking image by image whose work is hanging daily at the gallery in the Ace NYC (it's on a near constant rotation of prints - hundreds per day), we'll continue to publish vids like this and still images for you all to check out. REMINDER: this gallery wall changes every day, sometimes 2x per day, with 100-200 new images going up in every update. Stay tuned for yours. Still humbled...

Living at the Ace Hotel New York for 5 weeks has the benefit of getting to connect with the amazing cross section of people & culture. Enter: Reggie Watts. I've got a ton of respect for Reggie. He's a genius musician in a comedian's skin, who moved from Seattle to NYC a short while ago as his career exploded. The LA Times called him, "Deliciously strange." New York Magazine called him, "Spectacularly original."...

This was one of my all time favorites episodes of chasejarvis LIVE. Brooklyn-based We Are Augustines swooped into the Garage and--in between sharing amazing insight about struggle, creative vision, and inspiration--played an amazing, emotionally-charged set for us. We then followed up with a live photoshoot for forthcoming promo material for the band and release of their new album. BTW, when you realize that you want to buy their album, sit tight. It'll be...

A handful of you nailed it to varying degrees. Here's my breakdown of shot: First, this was not a snapshot. Anything I'd list that would be of interest has been planned, choreographed Second, this image was...

Hi friends. Kate here again. I've been reading your questions lately, I've noticed that many are about production. It's no doubt that shooting days can be stressful: you have a set of objectives that need to be accomplished, time is limited, the client is present, weather, travel, lodging and permits may be a factor, you're coordinating people and there are always little surprises that crop up. Plain and simple, there are just lots of moving parts...
