“So here’s a portrait we did of director David Lynch. This was shot for the icon issue of the now defunct project of Shepard Fairey and Roger Gastman called Swindle Magazine.  We were told we had no more than 30 minutes with Mr. Lynch, not because he was a diva or anything but that he can’t handle doing one thing longer than 30 minutes apparently.  We decided to shoot him with 4x5 film, Kodak Portra 160 to be exact with one soft box (like every 4x5 shot we ever shoot).  We shot 4 frames that felt great so we asked if he would like to smoke.  He said “I would love to, it’s one of my favorite things to do”. He lit up, we shot this one last frame and called it a day because we knew we had it.  5 frames, have never even looked at the other 4.  As we were packing up our gear he said “It was a real pleasure watching you guys work” and he walked off.  Thank you Mr. Lynch for your time.”

Jorge Luis Borges

"Creio que uma forma de felicidade é a leitura; outra forma de felicidade menor é a criação poética, o que chamamos criação, que é uma mescla de esquecimento e memória daquilo que já lemos."
