Payless-Summer Mood
Take It to the Bank
It was the brainchild of Wieden + Kennedy to create an O.G. rap group that also happened to dominate on the court. Once in costume, Kevin Durant, Mo Williams, Rashard Lewis, and Andre Iguodala really inhabited their old school characters while putting on a dunk clinic for the fans. We took over a basketball stadium in downtown Las Vegas, filled it with fans and extras, and let the guys show off. The crowd was hyped and I felt fortunate just being present to watch these incredible athletes bring back Showtime.Click to view more.
One Minute to Midnight
Throughout two solid days and nights in Los Angeles, we traveled with our repertory company of models, actors, real life couples, and DJs creating a mobile party wherever we went, and taking glorified snap shots in fantastic locations. The energy of the group really propelled the shoot (and having an endless supply of cold Heineken on hand didn't hurt either). Many of the scenarios in these shots happened spontaneously and we just kept shooting while our actors tried to outdo each other. Click to view more.
Teenage Dream
For this Glamour editorial we were completely inspired by our location, the iconic Chelsea Hotel. Given carte blanche to run amuck in the hallways, stairways, and several rooms, we let the eclectic colors and decor fill each frame. Chase Crawford and our great model Nina played hide and seek through the halls where Bob Dylan, Charles Bukowski, and Sid Vicious once roamed, and we tried to be in the right position to capture the fun they were having with each other.Click to view more.
