Jan 7th 2009 | Just a week into the new year and one of our projects already made the evening news.

Oh well - all press is good press, right?
P.S. VENOM YUM DIGS MILK - YO!

Feb 6th 2008| It's Copenhagen Fashion Week now, and we are doing ours to stay away as much as possible from the icky cheek kissing.
However, shooting a lookbook for the Woven Flesh Summer 08 collection "Navigator" is just pure fun. We went sailing last fall to shoot the first set, and last Sunday we took the last of the pictures with models in 2 degrees Celcius. One of the models got butt-naked and local fishermen yelled and laughed. Why that always happens during our photoshoots is a mystery. Poor models.
