I did some behind-the-scenes pictures at the filming of Marina and the Diamonds "Hollywood" video, directed by the amazing Kinga Burza. Loved Marina, the set and the Americana-inspired styling by Celestine Cooney!
Apologies for the lack of proper documentation, but it was all a bit manic. Nevertheless, the party was a lot of fun and I was really happy to see all my Warsaw friends!
Highlights of the night included a collective dance sequence to Bad Romance (seems to have a huge following in the Warsaw art circles), Krystof dancing all night with his earphones on (as he insisted he likes to hear his songs loud!) and finally, the CD player burning down at 4am for a non-identifiable reason (although playing old Haddaway could be the case). All in all, a great night and big thanks to everyone, who came down and the boys at Delikatesy TR, who helped us put it together.

To put a bit of a break to this "me, me, me" action, I thought: why not start interviewing photographers, whose work I really like? Except, those won't be the questions you expect from a typical q&a.
So first comes a little chat with my friend Pierre Debusschere - an AMAZING photographer and video maker from Brussels, Belgium. Over the last year, Pierre has been shooting for the likes of Dazed & Confused, Metal and Vogue Hommes Japan, and his fashion videos were exhibited at Colette in Paris last February. Most recently, he art directed the new website for Raf Simons, which, just like Pierre's images, is sleek, futuristic and darkly, darkly beautiful...

Haha, unfortunately I can't tell you just yet! Last week, I took some behind-the-scenes shots at the filming of a music video in London. I can't show anything before it comes out, except that it was directed by the lovely Kinga Burza and features one of the most promising music talents in the UK now... Jedward it's not.
