kate michael.

just wanted to show my support for kate michael (miss dc 2006) as she prepares for her entry in the miss dc usa pageant on november 24, here in dc. my friend lee helped me put this mini-ad together to run in program brochures for the event, featuring one of the headshots from a session we did for the pageant…best of luck kate!

last night i had dinner with my good friend alex funk, who in addition to being dashingly handsome and hilariously funny, is a ridiculously talented dj.

it was so great to see him and catch up – between our schedules it takes nothing short of sheer luck for us to be able to hang out. he’s such a big deal now, and i’m so excited for him – he played the main stage at pride in baltimore this year, and is booking such cool gigs, in addition to playing local venues all around dc and b-more. his music totally gets me moving (a challenging task, see #3 below) not to mention he has an AMAZING remix of “ice, ice baby” (see #2 below).

we started laughing about an awesome photo shoot we did in the beginning of the year at his former studio – a massive warehouse in east baltimore. it was a blast running around the building and shooting in such a raw, industrial space, and then he spun for a while and i snapped away. those were pre-blogging days and i wanted to share a couple of our favorites…including the one above on his website. check him out at www.getfunk.com…GET FUNK!

the grand opening of ibiza.

ibiza, the newest club in dc, opened its doors last night — a week behind schedule, and about an hour late — to throngs of people who lined up around the block for a chance to check out the scene, and glimpse the celebrities kim kardashian and dj am.
