the lost plays of tennessee williams.

i was so excited to attend the opening weekend performance of the lost plays of tennessee williams at the davidson/valentini theatre in hollywood a few weeks ago. my good friend and fantastic actor jason l brandt was part of the incredibly talented cast which performed three of williams’ recently discovered, one-act plays: mister paradise, the palooka, and tell sad stories of the deaths of queens. all three performances were stellar – compelling stories portrayed so vividly by the actors. following the performance, i photographed a few of the highlights of each play – it was a fabulous experience! thank you to the cast + crew: BRAVO!

jason l brandt.

jason l brandt is an LA-based actor that i met earlier this year at the sundance festival in park city…we did some impromtu headshots one afternoon and had a great time. actors really intrigue me, and it was very cool to chat with jason and try to capture his personality…i love the images that came out of this shoot and i can’t wait to work with him again. he’s currently in on a play opening this weekend in LA – the lost works of tennessee williams – and i’m heading out there and hope to get some more great shots of this incredibly talented (and wonderfully photogenic!) rising actor.

sven kamm: sundance 2008.

i had the absolute pleasure of meeting the very talented filmmaker sven kamm in park city last month at the sundance festival. furthermore, i got to photograph him one bright, snowy afternoon at the sundance house…the goldenhead team and crew were working hard to promote kamm’s newest film GO HOME POGUE MAHON – a dying arts production + goldenhead project.

sven kamm with the stars of GO HOME POGUE MAHON: adam campell + ryan cartwright.

GO HOME POGUE MAHON sundance launch party.

one of my main jobs at the sundance festival last week was to cover the GO HOME POGUE MAHON launch party in park city. the film is a goldenhead + dying art productions collaboration, and the party featured hosts livingston webb + michael gerrior of goldenhead, sven kamm of dying art productions, as well as the film’s actors ryan cartwright + adam campbell. the incredibly talented musician jill stevenson performed a live session, and guests were entertained with an up-close falcon + hawk encounter.

trust me, it was a very interesting party…so happy to be a part of it!

hosts sven kamm + livingston webb.

jill stevenson gave a phenomenal performance.

the hawk (above) and falcon arrived around 11pm…

nicole dimauro was the first to embrace the fierce hawk as a friend.

actor jason l brandt gave the hawk a serious stare down.

hannah crowley admires the hawk and talia rogers braves the falcon.

guests wore thick gloves to protect their hands from the bird’s crazy large talons.

actors adam campbell + ryan cartwright steered clear of the hawk/falcon business…

what’s a party without lots of brazilian girls?
