SHOOT THE MOON

Rob — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 21:37:17 +0000

Chris Hefner (the fellow pictured below), is in the pre-production phase of his new feature film, The Poisoner. We built this paper…..well… plywood, really… moon and set it up as a sort of photo booth at The Everleigh Social Club during a fundraising event for the film’s budget. Check out a more robust selection of the photos here: http://rkarlic-moon.tumblr.com/

WHATTA ‘WEEN!

Crown Tap Room in Logan Square was transformed into a the kind of holiday hell house that could only be built from the dreams of one serious Halloweener. That ‘Ween dreamer was none other than Shana East. Cover bands included The Damned, The Cramps , Devo and GG Allin (with whom I had the pleasure of playing bass!) The best costume award went to a large pile of trash (pictured below).

ARTS OF LIFE

I recently had the pleasure of photographing The Arts of Life Band at as they rocked way out to other dimensions and flaunted their new band costumes during their Fashion Forward event. They play out fairly often and produce tons of art nearly every day. Take a tour of The Arts of Life Studio at 2010 W. Carroll Ave.

….is what they call the bulbous green fellas. I learned this and more funny flower names on a recent visit to Pollen Floral Designs, in Ravenswood, where Lynn Fosbender arranges some seriously interesting and unique floral goods.

SO LONG SUMMER

There it went….again. These were shot with a little plastic underwater camera that I found at a convenience store for 10 bucks. I really dig the grain, color distortion and vignetting.

GROOM GONE WILD

Daniel and Megan’s Wedding was a blast! Here’s a tribute to the groom with boom.

ROAD TRIPPIN’

Took a real long route along the shores of two Great Lakes to shoot Kate and Mark’s wedding in Detroit. I’ll post some wedding highlights real soon.

NOT QUITE THE STORMY KNIGHT

The idea of being a traveling storm chaser/photographer has always appealed to me. Unfortunately, the thought of being alone in the middle of some vast Nowheresville while twisters are a twistin’ and bolts are cracklin’ ’round my head is awfully terrifying! So…. Here’s a shot that I took while cowering and trembling beneath the window of mi casa.

HOLLOWS

Shot The Hollows and a bedazzled fish for their upcoming UK single.

MICKEY @ DOUBLE DOOR

I wasn’t expecting to make it to Mickey’s tour kick-off show but somehow I made it. The dudes were all greased up in glam paint and luckily I had a cruddy little point and shoot camera in my pocket.
