From Where I Stand:



 Mary McCartney's book 'From Where I Stand' is definitely worth a look if you ask me. She is a photographer and sister to the lovely Stella McCartney and has built herself quite a collection. This includes Kate Moss, Daphne Guiness and Bjork just to name a few.


“I wanted to pick shots that stand alone,” says McCartney of the images she selected for the book. “I like the photographs of other people that inspired me to be a photographer that make me think: Who was that person? Where was this picture taken? What was the feel behind it? What the emotion behind it? Those are the things that intrigue me and drive me as a photographer.”





 
 I got mine at Collette but you can get yours here:

I Love Collette:

I knew from the beginning that Collette would be my favourite part of Paris. I must admit though, even I had underestimated it's retail magnificence. I went there four times in my first week alone.

I think it has a lot to do with the fact that Balmain, Christopher Kane, Hermes, Burberry, Proenza Schouler, Lanvin etc were all housed in the one room. I was salivating to the point that I thought that they might ask me to step away from the expensive leather pieces. Maybe they should start water proofing them just in case I visit again.






Even without all of those labels it is still so cool. There is a great collection of art books and cool cds as well as a super beauty department downstairs. Also the cafe downstairs was really only one of the two places that actually served a decent coffee in France.  The second being Cafe Ruc but that cost an arm and a leg, literally its worked out to be $25 for two flat whites. Ouch!

Why dont we have stores like this in Sydney.

Anywho the point is I could live there, honestly.

Ryan McGinley; Photographic Extraordinaire




I have seen these shots above before but did not really take them in at the time. I thought, yes naked teens in a cave with strange lighting, how Bill henson of you.  For some reason however I thought to look this photographer up again today and look what I found! So many great photos. I'm officially a fan!
