Okay! Time to take a quick break from uploading wedding photos to share some art that has recently caught my eye. Mensajeros galácticos is the newest piece from South American artist, Nina Pez.  It seems like the .GIF is a full-on internet trend but I think it really adds to this particular drawing.

WLP good friend and crafty small business owner Bonnie Rue needs our help!  Due to unforeseen circumstances (like her roof literally falling down on her) she used up her POOL trade show savings on moving expenses.  Please take a look at the Model Citizen Shop and blog and consider donating some money to her kickstarter page in exchange for some rad handmade goods.

Here is a photoshoot Whitney did with Bonnie a while back for Austin Monthly Magazine

A while back Whitney had a chance to photograph bona fide Japanese rock stars, Peelander-Z while they were recording at OHM Recording Facility. These guys are amazing people and write hilarious/catchy songs often based off of their secondhand understanding of English. Definitely be sure to check out their insane live shows when they come back around. A little later I will post the actual portraits of Peelander that Whitney shot (they turned out great!).

The band had some children sing on a couple of the songs.

Okay this was way too cute not to post.

The pattern is based off of the classic floral print… BUT WITH CAT HEADS!

Alright, we cheated a little bit, we didn’t do this session the day after they got married as the concept would dictate. We did this after they had a chance to go away on a relaxing honeymoon! These two are a blast, and I was so glad that their wedding day wasn’t the last time I would see them. And I hope to see them again! I love getting calls from couples about anniversary shoots or impending babies Ahem, on to the couple!
(I’d also like to mention that this was the essence of a engagement session that can be done through photojournalism. Many couples want to be posed when they’re alone together, but this couple took off on their own with their props and had a blast!)
