A Tacky Holiday Window - Ugly Sweaters Included

Added on by Andrew Gawdun.

I once again teamed up with local Hermosa Beach business, Curious... for this years holiday window.  I approached them about turning their window interactive this year and making the public the models and including a charity gig.  With the ball and minds rolling the window became, a Tacky Holiday Window.  

With an actual living room installation designed and every sort of tacky nostalgic holiday decor you can think of we revealed the window, (I asked them to tape the window up while building the set and do some social media hype to increase participation and excitement) during Hermosa Beach's annual Holiday Sidewalk Sale.  It was a hit!  We even added to the fun by asking for donations for the charity in which besides a digital image they received an actual Polaroid style print on the spot!  We raised some amazing funds for a great charity and helped kick off the holiday season in an ever so tacky way.     -AG 

*side note:  Due to the demand of the event, another photo session in the window display will take place on Dec 11th during the evening at Curious... (128 Pier Ave, Hermosa Beach, CA 90254)

Lady of Wilmington

This past week I've been touring North Carolina.  My first stop was Wilmington to see a very dear and best friend, Nicole.  Nicole has been trying to get me to visit her since she moved here a couple years back for her Masters program.  I can't believe I waited so long.  Wilmington in itself is such a beauty.

While Nicole showed me around her favorite haunts I was able to snap a few images with her and of her.  Someone needs to snatch up this beautiful gal already!  -AG
