			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was going through some stuff after I moved my office into the studio and discovered an old roll of 35mm film, so I took it in to get developed this week &amp; had no idea what was on there&#8230; What a find- this roll was taken on mine &amp; Stuart&#8217;s first date! He took me to the sandwich shop in La Jolla and then we went to the cliffs over Black&#8217;s Beach&#8230;. over 10 YEARS AGO! goldmine!</p>

<p>Stuart and I went to Massachusetts for the 4th of July weekend. Our  dear close friends Bill and Emilia got married! Remember them from <a href="http://www.featherlove.com/blog/emilia-bill-and-our-60sfrenchnew-wave-inspired-engagement-session/" target="_blank">this  engagement shoot</a> I did a while back? Well this was the first time I got to go to a wedding  as a guest in like maybe 4 years or something, so we were really  excited. Plus Emilia designed her entire wedding (view her <a href="http://sweetemiliajane.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Sweet Emilia  Jane</a> Event Design blog here &amp; <a href="http://theauburnandivory.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Auburn &amp; Ivory</a> here), it was  absolutely the most perfect and beautiful backyard hippie wedding in  history, all on her parents&#8217; property in Sutton.</p>
<p>The wedding was all photographed by the magical duo over at <a href="http://davinaplusdaniel.com/blog/" target="_blank">Davina &amp; Daniel Photography</a>! Who are the sweetest couple ever. And btw, we got to take some pics with them too! Here&#8217;s a photo that Davina &amp; Daniel took of Stuart and I:<br />

<p>The next day we went back to the property to have brunch with everyone and we took some photos. Emilia&#8217;s parents&#8217; house was built in <strong>1790</strong>!! Dream. Home.<br />

I would do almost anything for these gorgeous antique insanely-wide plank wood floors. Seriously some of the planks were maybe 20 inches wide!<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/012.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Stuart took some pics of me.<br />

And look at the beautiful newlyweds!!<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/009.jpg" alt="" /><br />
After brunch we took the drive down to Scituate, MA.  The town is so pretty- everything I imagined an east coast beach town would be.  Stuart&#8217;s family has a beach house over there and they happened to be hanging out for 4th of July so we paid them a visit for a couple days. Stuart hadn&#8217;t been back in maybe 20 years or so, so we were really excited!<br />

I love our east coast family. The nicest funnest people  : )<br />
After that fun-filled beach day, we wanted to try some of the local food.  Stuart and I were advised to go to <a href="http://barkertavern.com/" target="_blank">Barker Tavern</a> nearby, everyone swore hands-down that the food was incredible&#8230;. We were told to go to into the &#8220;back&#8221; which is where the locals go, no tourists&#8230;.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/064.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Food was insane (evidence above- me stuffing face). Service was the best that either Stuart or I had ever experienced. We couldn&#8217;t stop talking about how amazing it was. We started chatting with some really nice local folks in there, everyone was so friendly. And then we had some cappuccino and this indescribable dessert&#8230; I don&#8217;t even know what the hell it was called but it tasted &amp; felt exactly like what it might be like to bite into a chocolate cloud&#8230; I was in heaven. When in Scituate- go to <a href="http://barkertavern.com/" target="_blank">Barker Tavern</a>!<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/063.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Stuart took this outside the tavern.</p>
<p>Then we went back to the beach house for sunset and fireworks with the family.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/065.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/067.jpg" alt="" /><br />
This sweet labradoodle (I don&#8217;t remember  his name) that belonged to the family actually saved us from a coyote that night! It tried to sneak up the stairs right past us and Best Dog Ever (that&#8217;s what everyone called him after the incident) chased the coyote away and held down the fort for the rest of the night to make sure it wasn&#8217;t coming back&#8230;. bless his heart.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/068.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/069.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/070.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Our room was upstairs with 360 degree views and a constant ocean breeze&#8230; the sounds of waves crashing rocked us to sleep&#8230;<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/072.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/073.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.16.10/074.jpg" alt="" /><br />

<p style="text-align: left;">Meredith (Brian Ellis&#8217; girlfriend) and I went to a little french cafe for lunch while the guys were getting their sound check. Then we spent the remainder of the day in Camden.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/041.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Then later at <a href="http://www.scala-london.co.uk/scala/" target="_blank">Scala</a>, ASTRA played with Diagonal &amp; Litmus.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/067.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There are a few videos from this show on youtube.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Backstage after&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/068.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/049.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Then Lee Dorrian (Cathedral / <a href="http://www.riseaboverecords.com/home/" target="_blank">Rise Above Records</a>, ASTRA&#8217;s label) went out for a drink with us after the show.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/blog/06.15.10/069.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Then he convinced us to go to the<a href="http://www.crobar.co.uk/" target="_blank"> Crobar</a> in Soho- he said it was great, everyone else said &#8220;that place is shit!&#8221; and warned us that we would have a terrible time, so of course we got in a van with Lee and went over to the Crobar. ..</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">On the way, Lee told us some of the most amazing stories about himself and his past and how much of it was spent getting totally trashed and waking up in strange places and wild fun stuff like that. Now I have a great story that I can tell one day about how I sat with Mr. Lee Dorrian in a van on the way to the Crow Bar and listened to these crazy stories. By the way, Lee is one of my favorite people, I always look forward to seeing him when we go to Europe.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/076.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The <a href="http://www.crobar.co.uk/" target="_blank">Crobar</a> is officially the tiniest yet most intense/ heavy-metal / scumbag/ epically rad bar of all time!! We had a BLAST!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This great description on the Crobar website should give you a pretty good idea of what this place was like: &#8220;The Crobar is London&#8217;s (and probably the UK&#8217;s) only bar dedicated to bourbon, beer, Rock music and the principal that it&#8217;s ok to have fun without some idiot bar tender, doorman or arsehole giving you shit for it. Obviously, there are limits. The moment you become the arsehole punter,we show you the door but we like to give you lots of rope before you hang yourself. We don&#8217;t have a dress code, just an attitude code. All we ask is that you are dressed. We like cool people, and contrary to what you may be lead to believe, as you battle the angry, bitter and psychotic crowds on London&#8217;s streets, there are cool people in London. We know because we&#8217;re glad to say, all those cool people drink at The Crobar.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/077.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The bartenders do shots and give kisses.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Another one of my faves from this trip, below.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/073.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I f&#8217;ing LOVE this one below of Lee&#8217;s coat&#8230;.!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/blog/06.15.10/074.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">What a night!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So while we were out in Europe is right when the whole Volcanic Ash incident happened. We were supposed to catch a flight from London to Amsterdam but of course that got canceled, so the label organized a last minute ride for us instead (driven by Steve, the most awesomest dude ever).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This was a strange roadtrip- I think it took about 7 or 8 hours or so? But we were in a van and then we had to drive the van onto some sort of train that went into an UNDERWATER tunnel across the English Channel and into France&#8230; I still don&#8217;t exactly know how the whole thing works but it was weird. And I certainly cannot complain about driving through FRANCE &amp; BELGIUM- the countryside was gorgeous! And everything smelled like manure, which was fine with me because we were just drinking Vodka shots in the back and listening to Stuart&#8217;s ipod mix and enjoying the ride&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">Part 2: HOLLAND</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">We arrived in Tilburg after that looong day of traveling and went right to the <a href="http://www.roadburn.com/" target="_blank">Roadburn Festival</a> to see if we could catch <a href="http://www.comusmusic.co.uk/" target="_blank">COMUS</a> play. We just missed them right when we got there. And we missed our friends EARTHLESS too- which we always run into in Europe (because they&#8217;re pretty much always touring out there).  But running into COMUS was wild, they were really sweet and turns out they stayed at the same hotel as us (we had breakfast together &amp; debated over the volcano!), and, well pretty much every band that played at Roadburn stayed at the same hotel. Speaking of other Roadburn bands, you absolutely MUST see Jex Thoth live sometime&#8211; they were totally incredible! (Here&#8217;s a youtube clip of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CHP2frMFVA" target="_blank">Jex Thoth at Roadburn</a>)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So the next day was when ASTRA played at Roadburn. Here we are backstage acting stupid before the show.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/131.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Oh and I ate one of the best fallafel sandwhiches ever that night! They had an entire food section at Roadburn that was all vegan/ vegetarian. Kinda weird walking around that place filled with heshers and doomsters looking all tough and rad, but acting all peaceful eating their vegan felafels and getting trashed.<br />
ASTRA live at Roadburn Festival April 16th 2010.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/132.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/133.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_kC0IZOZhk&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s one of the youtube clips of the show&#8230;</a><br />
They KILLED it&#8211; such a great show. Afterward we decided to walk around and see which bands we could catch. We ran into our friends the <a href="http://www.myspace.com/earthless" target="_blank">EARTHLESS</a> dudes again. And there was a constant stream of ASTRA fans wearing their shirts and coming up to talk to the band&#8230; apparently the show was sold out and there were several hundred people waiting to get in outside that missed it&#8230; it&#8217;s a good thing the band&#8217;s going back in July!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/134.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/135.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">When in Holland&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/136.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Above, the menu at a &#8216;cafe&#8217; in Tilburg.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">part 3. AMSTERDAM</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">We headed over to Amsterdam after Roadburn. We planned it so that we would have a couple days off there just to enjoy and travel etc. But we ended up getting stuck out there for another like 5 days or so because of the Icelandic Volcano situation,  so after eating out and going out every night, the last few days were all about buying bread and cheese and wine from the market and eating in our hotel rooms&#8230;. oh and the CHEESE in Holland is INSANE!  I still can&#8217;t get over it- I brought a bunch back too.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/094.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="/blog/06.15.10/092.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/093.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">We spent all our time walking, catching buses, trolleys &amp; cabs all around Amsterdam. We visited the Van Gogh Museum (amazing!), the Sex Museum &amp; The Vodka Museum, and generally explored the city which is absolutely gorgeous: the buildings, canals, parks, restaurants, as well as the dry, smart-ass wit of the dutch folk&#8230; ; ) I love them.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The city is so well organized. Everyone, and I mean everyone, was on a bicycle: children, business people, students, grandparents. The whole city is set up around transportation. So all the streets have bike lanes as well as car &amp; trolley lanes &amp; pedestrian, bus &amp; bicycle stoplights etc, all worked into the system.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Amsterdam. Is. Beautiful.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/096.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/139.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Below: the Red Light District. (Oh and for some reason I threw a photo in below of how messy our hotel room was, this has nothing to do with the red light district so I have no idea why I did that&#8230; maybe subconsciously I was thinking what a &#8220;dirty&#8221; &#8220;filthy&#8221; room and for some reason my brain grouped that in with the Red Light District collage&#8230;)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/blog/06.15.10/140.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/141.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">An authentic and incredible little Nepalese/Tibetan restaurant in the Red Light District&#8230;. to die for!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">And below is another one of my favorites from this trip of Meredith, shot with my point-and-shoot.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/blog/06.15.10/144.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/145.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Our room when it was &#8220;neat&#8221; which lasted for about 5 minutes. This is was the beautiful view we had! We stayed at the Hotel Alexander. Highly recommend for those on a budget. Clean, central, in a beautiful area, excellent customer service/concierge etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/113.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/114.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/115.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I met up with an old friend of mine, Riley Salyards. She is one third of the <a href="http://jacksonjohnstonandroe.com/" target="_blank">Jackston Johnston &amp; Roe</a> team (my bff Teo&#8217;s gorgeous clothing line) as well as an amazing artist, designer, photographer&#8230; everything! Riley&#8217;s <a href="http://rileysalyards.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">blog</a> is where you go to see beauty of all kinds. You must must must go <a href="http://rileysalyards.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. She is so ridiculously talented.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/116.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Meredith took this photo below of Stuart and I, and this lady in the pink jacket was totally zoned out and kept stepping into our kodak moment. Oblivious.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/117.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/118.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">This is what the old lady was staring at. So I guess I don&#8217;t blame her.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/119.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/120.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I love this shot of Riley outside Cafe Vertigo. This place showed old black and white films but was also a bar, restaurant, cafe&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/121.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Stuart took these next few below&#8212; I LOVE them!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/122.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">On my walk home from the Cafe that night&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: 0px initial initial;" src="/blog/06.15.10/129.jpg" alt="" /><br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/128.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Our hotel: <a href="http://www.hotelalexander.nl/" target="_blank">Hotel Alexander</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/blog/06.15.10/130.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">One of the things I was looking forward to the most in this trip was the fact that we were going to be in Holland during tulip season. A few of us took the bus to <a href="http://www.keukenhof.nl/" target="_blank">Keukenhof</a> to see the gardens &amp; fields&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: 0px initial initial;" src="/blog/06.15.10/098.jpg" alt="" /><br />

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/101.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m in love with these colors below! Can someone please use this as a color palette for their wedding &amp; have me shoot it !? Please ???</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/102.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/103.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/104.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.15.10/112.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Words cannot describe how beautiful that place was, but suffice to say, those tulip gardens were like a dreamy fairytale land where magical unicorns ride liquid rainbows into soft green meadows and albino peacocks rule as philosopher-kings and stuff like that.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After all that AND some, we finally found some flights back home. That was such a fun trip&#8230;.Here&#8217;s my dude, styled out on our way back&#8230; Love you baby.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you follow my <a href="http://twitter.com/featherlove" target="_blank">tweets</a> or my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Feather-Love-Photography/83592346755" target="_blank">feather love facebook page</a>, you might remember a few months ago when I posted about &#8220;my favorite new photographer&#8221; <a href="http://emmacasephotography.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Emma Case</a>. Well, I absolutely fell in love with her work and when she heard I was coming out to London with my husband&#8217;s band <a href="http://messaging.myspace.com/astrasound" target="_blank">ASTRA</a>, she asked if I would shoot her &amp; Pete&#8217;s engagement session. I was so excited because I really love &amp; admire her art so much. This sweet little English lady has only been shooting weddings for 6 months and has managed to blow all us photographers and wedding blogger people completely away! Emma approaches her work so naturally and effortlessly; her perspective is childlike, innocent and always searching for humor&#8230; full of joie de vivre! I am absolutely floored by her vision and her talent. Her blog is filled with joy and beauty; one cannot help but smile and be astounded at the same time whilst looking at her work. Please go to <a href="http://emmacasephotography.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Emmas blog</a> if you would like to see what I mean.</p>
<p>Also, Emma just interviewed me on <a href="http://www.thephotographyparlour.com/2010/06/emma-case-interviews-featherlove/2102" target="_blank">The Photography Parlour</a>! A blog for aspiring as well as professional photographers. There&#8217;s so much good stuff on that site. To check out our interview, please go <a href="http://www.thephotographyparlour.com/2010/06/emma-case-interviews-featherlove/2102" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>And the absolute radness that is Kat of <a href="http://www.rocknrollbride.com/2010/06/pure-feather-love/" target="_blank">Rock &#8216;n Roll Bride</a> just featured this shoot on her blog! She is also a mega fan of Emma&#8217;s : ) You can view it <a href="http://www.rocknrollbride.com/2010/06/pure-feather-love/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

<p>Emma &amp; Pete are the cutest cutsies ever, and I instantly fell in  love with them. It was so great to hang out for a bit and meet  this budding (exploding!) artist and her beautiful musician of a man.</p>
<p>Right near where we were staying in Bellsize Park, there was this  gorgeous church, St. Peters, that I kept walking by and freaking out  over, so we decided to shoot there.</p>

<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/042.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>We wanted to see if it was open so we went in and found that not only was it open but that there was some really beautiful choir music playing. The adorable priest inside was so welcoming when we asked if we could shoot in there. Once we looked up we realized that it was actually a real choir practicing! Elated.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/034.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>I was totally blown away by this church which I think just celebrated it&#8217;s 150th birthday. Emma &amp; Pete were a little surprised I think, probably because these types of old churches and buildings are a dime a dozen in Europe- I really wish we had more of this architecture stateside.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/035.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>The choir practicing.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/055.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/050.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>Sweet priest was so into us shooting in there.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/056.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/057.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/058.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>The giant gorgeous old pipe organ!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/059.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>And these tiled floors! I was losing my mind&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/036.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>My legs made a little cameo.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/061.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/064.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>And this was kinda strange: as I was looking down at them I had a weird psychedelic momentary mind lapse because I realized that Emma and I look so much the same! I was like, woah Emma- we kinda look the same. I felt like I was taking a photo of myself for a second.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/067.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>

<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/06.02.10/084.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>These next 2 photos reminded me of some old movie shot in circa &#8216;69, where the young lovers are having an existential debate with each other, or something like that&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Cabinet Of Curiosities: Interesting People In Their Natural Environments&#8230; Ingrid, San Francisco.</strong></p>
<p>I have been photographing this ongoing project on &amp; off for about a decade or so: shooting people in their homes&#8230;<br />
This shoot was one of two I did in San Francisco as a submission for a magazine.</p>
<p>Here is my friend Ingrid in her home.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/001.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/005.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/006.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/007.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/008.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
I have always been intrigued by taking a look at people that I find fascinating, how they fit in their homes, the things they choose to collect and surround themselves with, and what that says about them. I love this combination of objects, art, colors, architecture, clothing, curios etc., and the unique portrait it paints of the individual.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/009.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/010.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/048.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/012.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/013.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/014.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/016.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/017.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/018.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>When given the theme &#8220;cabinet of curiosities&#8221; by the magazine I was submitting to, I decided to combine these two ideas into this project. For me, this meant looking at that conversation between the person &amp; their space &amp; their inanimate objects together as one subject- sort of a &#8220;posed /propped-up-on-a-shelf / behind-a-glass / in-their-natural-environments&#8221; view, so to speak.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/022.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/027.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/028.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/029.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Another underlying theme that comes to mind is &#8220;oddities&#8221;- which is generally the purpose of these cabinets filled with collected items. I choose people who interest me based on their character, their art, their strangeness, or anything else that strikes me about them. It&#8217;s odd to collect things, if you think about it. And I like people who are odd&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/030.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />

<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/047.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/049.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/050.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/052.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/12.07.09/053.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Check out this shoot I did with <a href="../vintage-style-photo-shoot/">David Hurley of ASTRA at his home</a> earlier this year, for the same project&#8230;<br />
Also, I will be posting tons more SF pics in a few days, so check back!<br />
The next Cabinet Of Curiosities shoot I will be posting is a much much darker one&#8230;.. ; )</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I went to Spain a few weeks ago with my husband&#8217;s band <a href="http://www.myspace.com/astrasound" target="_blank">ASTRA</a> (see <a href="http://www.featherlove.com/blog/astra-photo-shoot-part-2/" target="_blank">here</a> for some previous photo entries). They were flown out to play in a beautiful tiny town at this INCREDIBLE festival at the foot of an old Spanish castle: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/festivaldelcastell" target="_blank"><span>Festival de Psicodelia de El Castell de Guadalest</span></a>. Needless to say, I went to take pics! Another major plus is that our friends <a href="http://www.myspace.com/earthless" target="_blank">Earthless</a> played the festival too, so it was like a little piece of San Diego psychedelia found it&#8217;s way out to a small town in Spain to offer up it&#8217;s own brand of weird heavy freaky awesomeness. In fact, the guy who put the festival together &amp; who took such great care of us (we love you Alvaro!) plainly asked the bands: What do they put in your water out there in San Diego? The festival was INCREDIBLE: 2 days, very specialized and specific in it&#8217;s sound. Bands from all over Europe (and the world) and fans from all over the world as well. I think the tickets were like 100 Euro or so! So you had to be a major fan of this type of music, and if you were- you TOTALLY hit a goldmine. Anyways, here&#8217;s a little bit of our wild, fun, sleepless journey.</p>
<p>It was early, really really early when we left.</p>

<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/006.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>A very LONG and very HOT and very HUMID 7 hour drive from Madrid to Alicante after flying for about 24 hours.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/008.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>At the hotel in Benidorm, Alicante. <a href="http://www.hotelramblabenidorm.com/es/hotel-overview.html" target="_blank">Hotel Rambla</a>, where all the bands stayed = party central.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/009.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>It was awesome when we got there that they had rooms for us but the rooms had no beds. So then we had to get them to get us rooms WITH beds. That took a little while with the language barrier &#8216;n all.<br />

<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/012.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>The wonderful people who drove us all the way from Madrid to Alicante where so incredibly awesome and cool. Here is one of them, Alicia.<br />

<p>Drinks with some of the guys from <a href="http://www.myspace.com/witchcraftswe" target="_blank">Witchcraft</a>&#8230;. AWESOME band. We love the Swedes!<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/032.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/033.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/034.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/035.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>So this is the little town of Guadalest (population 200). Before the festival, we decided to walk up to the top of the castle so I could take some pics, and also, because it was like, a freaking castle, in Spain. Gorgeous.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/036.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/037.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Of course, we walked the whole thing with drinks in hand because WE COULD.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/038.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>The climb up to the top.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/039.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/040.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/041.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>And then this thing snuck up on us out of nowhere and left us awe-struck. Sometimes it&#8217;s hard to believe things like this are real.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/042.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s looking at you kid.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/043.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /></p>
<p>The castle.<br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/044.jpg" alt="" width="525" height="789" /><br />
<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/045.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Inside there were all these awesome little rooms with great acoustics&#8230; so the guys did some weird throat-singing/monk-chanting stuff which sounded really amazing and had a bunch of people walking in looking all terrified.<br />

<img class="alignnone" src="/blog/08.21.09/065.jpg" alt="" width="850" height="590" /></p>
<p>Headless praying gravestone. Certainly one of my favorite pics from this entire trip. I srsly want to start a goth band just so this can be the album cover.<br />

<p>Separated at birth: my husband &amp; Lee Dorrian. I was totally blown away watching these two talk! Twins!<br />
Lee Dorrian came from England to see ASTRA play. They&#8217;re on his label: <a href="http://www.riseaboverecords.com/home" target="_blank">Rise Above Records</a>. Also, Mr. Dorrian (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Dorrian" target="_blank">Napalm Death</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/cathedral" target="_blank">Cathedral</a>) made me blush when we met and he kissed my hand like a true English Gentleman! We had the best conversation too&#8230;. it was awesome to meet you sir!<br />

<p>Then we went out dancing the next night at some super-touristy nightclub named &#8220;Richard New Look&#8221;&#8230; (I don&#8217;t get the name either). But we danced for 5 hours straight, non-stop, we got that club bumping! and somehow during the process, we also managed to turn Brian Ellis into the most famous person in Alicante that night. He didn&#8217;t even have to play any music, he just WAS. Dave unknowingly entered him into a &#8220;striptease&#8221; contest. which Brian TOTALLY won amongst a bunch of Calvin Klein-looking boys. He blew the roof off the place. Everyone screamed. Everyone took pictures with him, they even took pictures with us because we were his posse&#8230; it&#8217;s so hard to explain what actually happened that night but I will just say it was one of the best nights of our lives. so much fun. so random. and at the end of it all we walked right out of the club and skinny dipped right into the Mediterranean waters at 5am. I couldn&#8217;t think of anything better. You must must MUST check out some of what Brian Ellis does when he&#8217;s not playing with ASTRA. Firstly he recently released one of the best dance albums I have heard in a long time, Yellow Light District- under his project Brian E.

Plus he recently co-produced M.I.A and is working on some other VERY interesting (&amp; big) stuff&#8230;<br />

Checked out Mississippi Records which is in my <a href="http://www.portlandbridges.com/portland-neighborhoods/00-Mississippi.html">favorite part of Portland</a>.  Visited with my sister and nephews, had drinks at <a href="http://noblerotpdx.com/">Noble Rot</a> (apparently they discovered their own water-source in the basement&#8230; best-tasting water ever!) &amp; <a href="http://www.clydecommon.com/">Clyde Common</a>. Had coffee at <a href="http://stumptowncoffee.com/">Stumptown Coffeee Roasters</a>, a tuna melt at <a href="http://www.kennyandzukes.com/">Kenny &amp; Zukes</a> (Where Emilia bought her hombre the &#8220;body by pastrami&#8221; t-shirt), Visited the <a href="http://www.cacaodrinkchocolate.com/">Cacao Drink Chocolate</a> chocolatiere and stayed for probably way too long. The most divine hot cocoa! Had the best time&#8230; Will post the wedding pics as soon as I can but in the meantime, here is Portland.</p>

<p>We took a 5-passenger puddle-jumper from Nassau to Staniel Cay (about a 35 minute flight).</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-118" title="18" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/18.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-120" title="20" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/20.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>

<p>When we got to Staniel Cay (population 80)- we stopped off at the grocery store to get food and supplies for our island. Everything was definitely on &#8220;island time&#8221; -we had to wait about a half an hour for the owner of the store to arrive. This spot also doubled as the dock where we would meet with Tucker who would pick us up in a water taxi and get us to our island. Everybody was extremely friendly on the Exuma islands.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-107" title="7" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/7.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>The &#8220;Blue Store&#8221; On Staniel Cay.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-121" title="21" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/21.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>We arrived at the Compass Cay (Population 1) Marina. A private island owned and run by Tucker Rolle. He lives on the island and rented out the lodge to us.<br />
Here&#8217;s the Marina.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-160" title="60" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/60.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>And this is Tucker Rolle: owner, occupant, manager.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-161" title="61" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/61.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>Stuart took this shot of the marina.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-152" title="52" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/52.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>A large, wooden, hand-made map of the island. I love it, it reminds me of <a href="http://www.rushmoreacademy.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=25">Eric Chase Anderson&#8217;s</a> artwork.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-153" title="53" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/53.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>Exactly.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-155" title="55" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/55.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>The lodge is a 3 bedroom house with gorgeous views all around. Just a few steps to the private beach.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-110" title="10" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/10.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>

<p>Stuart did tons of fishing, he even caught a Bone Fish, which is apparently the most sought-after fish &#8217;round these parts.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-147" title="47" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/47.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>

<p>Our beach. There are also 12 other private beaches on Compass Cay.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-129" title="29" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/29.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>

<p>This is one of the island&#8217;s cats, his name is Compass. He is single, handsome, likes chasing bees &amp; lizards, and enjoys long walks on the beach at sunset&#8230;<br />

<p>The walk back up to the lodge from the beach&#8230;<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-133" title="33" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/33.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>

<p>Sunset on Compass Cay.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-135" title="35" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/35.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>
<p>The view of the marina from our lodge at sunset.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-136" title="36" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/36.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>Our island has &#8220;pet sharks&#8221;. Instead of throwing food away, we bring it down to the dock once a day and &#8220;feed the fish&#8221;. They are friendly nurse sharks; you can swim with them and pet them too.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-154" title="54" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/54.jpg" alt="" width="445" height="700" /></p>

<p>Just in case you&#8217;re wondering: sharks aren&#8217;t too fond of lemons.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-151" title="51" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/51.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>A yacht docked at the marina.</p>

<p>A beautiful storm. It rendered us lodge-bound for about a day and a half, but it was gorgeous.<br />

<p>We did some island-hopping on our 13ft Boston Whaler speed boat.  It&#8217;s provided to you when you stay in the lodge.<br />

<p>Dennis Cay: I stayed on this island for a month when I was 15 yrs old as part of a school trip with 10 other students. I wanted to revisit it. They took out the dock so the only way to get on the island was from the beach side. This was the house we stayed on&#8211; back then it had no plumbing, electricity etc etc&#8230;.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-101" title="1" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/1.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>It looked like it still didn&#8217;t have any electricity/plumbing. This was the deck I had slept on 15 years ago, wrapped in a mosquito net and begging for the breeze keep the &#8220;noseems&#8221;off. Noseems are tiny flea-size flies that bite &amp; when they do, you itch so badly that you have to keep jumping into the ocean to relieve some of the itching. The deck. Memories.<br />
I was uncertain about how sturdy the deck was now. The house looked completely abandoned. It was hard to imagine 10 people in this tiny shack for a month! It was a lot smaller than I remembered it, and a lot more broken down&#8230; Stuart fished every island we went to.<br />

Dennis Cay still has one of the most beautiful beaches in the Exumas though!<br />

<p>When I showed this photo to my dad, he was convinced that it was some sort of land mine&#8230; He said he was glad I didn&#8217;t step on it! Uhm, so am I.<br />
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-102" title="2" src="http://www.featherloveweddings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/2.jpg" alt="" width="625" height="463" /></p>
<p>Sampson Cay, a nearby island with a store &amp; restaurant. We were the only people on the island besides the few that worked there&#8230; it&#8217;s a very pretty &amp; well-manicured little town.<br />
