Eye Spy: Coppi Barbieri's Dream States, et al.

I hate to be repetitive and reference The Times twice in a row, but the Women's Fall Fashion 2008 Style Magazine was out this weekend, and I learned some things:

  • Penny loafers are back. It's best to actually put pennies in them.

  • Rachel McAdams is better off in 2008 than 1988, with all due respect to Raymond Meier. Et voilà:

  • And most importantly, Coppi Barbieri can shoot a beautiful eye. I would point out that even beauty shoots are now referencing animals, but I think we've been through that. In any case, these are beautiful beautiful. They lose a little at 522 pixels, but you get the point. My favorite's the goldfish-- it matches our penny theme.

This last one didn't make the mag. Too spooksville? It's on the Style website, which is a serious trove of all things smashingly cool and high-end.

Coppi even has a little video online. Just between you and me, I think they excel far more at the still.

See their website for more still life grandeur (and another film).

Coppi Barbieri is actually a husband and wife team, Fabrizio Coppi and Lucilla Barbieri. I had the pleasure of working with them once, unbelievable team work, some sort of E.S.P. going on there. Fabrizio stuck with the camera, 8x10 chrome, while Lucilla positioned items and handled the lighting. At times they would just look at each other and one would go "ok, ok" and make a change without saying a word. Really great photographers.

Wow Lovely blog! Very nice designs, fashion wear dresses and styles, Good photography stills and good photograph skills.
