G.G.

 Dorothy Moore now known as G.G. since the birth of her first great grandchild 16years ago.

She has candy in every nook and cranny and thinks we're cruel when we tell Hugo no more. 

I never thought I would love a fake tree until I saw hers. Heavy with ornaments that have stories of their own. 

Her kisses are quick pecks of a half dozen.

She's never driven a car.

Legend has it, her kids were all potty trained by 1.

 my son's Great Grandmother.

OLD SCHOOL PICNIC AREA

This is where is all goes down. I'm pretty sure I heard "Rapper's Delight" being piped in.

STICKER

Going through stuff in my studio I found my old camera case. This is how I use to roll... .
Although I didn't roll because it didn't have wheels so I more like dragged it.

QUIET LIFE

My awesome friends Jennifer and Andy from The Quiet Life made one of my photos into a tshirt.
you should totally buy it.

SACHI

13 years old. One of my favorite people to photograph.

SWEET RIDE

I was walking to my car yesterday when I stopped dead in front of this. I couldn't move. 

Like, for a while. 

The guys who owned it starting laughing at me and told me I could buy it if I wanted to. 

I need a new car but I don't see where I could put the baby seat. 

JESSE, JULIEN, & LUKE

After I had met the designer Jesse Kamm a few times, she told me " let's get together and get inspired.
Next I saw her I was in a crosswalk when I heard someone calling my name.
I saw long tan arms, red lips, and a beautiful old blue Mercedes.
When we finally met up,  Jesse was wearing the  same overalls my son had been wearing a couple of days before. So friend crush complete.

Her family is bananas lovely.

THINKING ON YOUR FEET

Alec Baldwin arrived late, then refused to go sailing as planned

“It’s 105 degrees outside. [Baldwin] calls me over: ‘Sit down, sit down. Umm,’ he said, ‘I’m not going out on the boat. It’s too hot. It’s 20 f—ing minutes to get out, and you have to go 2 f—ing miles an hour. . . . I’m not doing it.’ It’s like, What do you mean? But you can’t argue with him — he’s not going to change his mind. So I’m thinking on my feet and I say, ‘Okay, what about we go to my friend’s pool?’ He looked me up and down — I’m pretty scruffy — and he said, ‘Your friend doesn’t have a f—ing pool.’ And I’m like, ‘Trust me, my friend has got a pool, and it’s about half a mile away from here.’ So he kind of looks at me and goes, ‘Yeah, all right.’”

I love this. I had to shoot an album cover once in New York. I rented my friends giant loft in Chinatown and had all these shots planned there. The singer had like, three stylists, and they walked in and say "we have to leave, there's a cat here and she's allergic" I called a photographer friend in the lower east side and within 20 minutes we were crammed in her apartment setting up food and clothes. I shot the whole thing on the street around there and it turned out to be one of my favorites shoots. I've banned cats from my shoots ever since.

                         Dirt, rocks, dogs, balls, water, muddy water, tunnels, bugs

MIA MOORE PRESSLEY

 My niece Mia came to hang out with Hugo yesterday.

                                         Headstrong and lovely.                          
                                 Personality bursting from the seams.

                              

WATER

I'm in a family that will jump into water whenever we can. At the drop of a hat, we'll sit in a creek, run through sprinklers or get in the ocean.
Reno and Laguna in the last couple of weeks.
