Wow, this place was pretty amazing. We shot the Kids "Check Out" section opener here today. I loved the space and thought I'd share some of the photos with you. I should have taken about a hundred or so more photos. Didn't even get all of the goodstuff... Enjoy!
Here's a few photos from todays shoot with Ryan Robinson. This is for the Spring 2010 TimeOut Chicago Kid's "Check Out" section. The little models were adorable! More photos of Ryan's space to come. Here's a link to his blog which has more on the shoot.
I get to see this every morning when I climb out of the subway on to Jackson & Dearborn. Skated this plaza at 16. Funny how things turn out as you get older.
Katie, Ruby and I took a little day trip to check out Milwaukee. Drove down some country roads, checked out downtown, saw a Snuggie pub crawl, and now we want to go back. Milwaukee = goodtimes.
Didn't get to go in but checked out the exterior here, really impressed with Milwaukee. These customizable rivets were pretty rad. Can't wait to go in.
We found this pretty cool shop at 213 N. Broadway. HotPop carries quite a few toys, books and clothing and also offers a regional artist bi-montly. This months artist is Matthew Ryan Sharp out of Chicago. Go buy something and support your local shop. More info. here.
Got to check out my buddy Ryan's studio a couple weeks ago... Check out the goods below. I'm really digging the simple balance between color and image in his prints and cutouts. Very simple but executed with precision. Diggin' it. Check him out here.
Katie and I got to check out Nantucket & Martha's Vineyard before I left to come back to Chicago. Good stuff! We cruised around the vineyard on a scooter, it was super windy but a great time... scoot scoot! We also saw Angus' future summer retreat.
