We were invited to be in yet another design book! No, just kidding, we shouldn’t brag, we are totally honored to be included in this awesome looking design book. By Invitation Only showcases special invitation designs, which is great for us because its one of our favorite things to do. The Lorick Spring ‘09 Invitation landed itself on the cover and the Bodkin A/W 09 invitation got a mention in the introduction paragraph of the book.

Last night’s Photo Auction for Artists in LOVE was a gigantic success! Incredible photos were donated by the likes of William Wegman, Dan Winters, Cass Bird, Platon etc. There was a huge turn out, incredible speakers, the auction made tons of money for the kids and we had fun in the process!!
The non-profit’s goal is to create a youth culture who teach the message of non-violence youth to youth (brilliant)!! These incredible kids shown above are the one’s spreading the message of non-violence. They and got up in from of the enormous crowd to speak about the violence they’ve witnessed in their lives and showcased the art that they create to reaction to it.
Miguel Abio Ruiz from Valistika Studio in Barcelona is currently working on Roanne’s wedding invitations. His work is so incredible and he’s just so lovely to work with we’d like to spread the love.
Thank you Miguel!
With love from New York.
Recently, we were invited to guest lecture / critique a class — Communications Imaging at Pratt Institute taught by Jacqueline Di Milia. The class is primarily sophomores and focuses on photography within a design specific context. For the most part, we addressed our process of how images are created through art direction and putting them in to use through design. It was super fun, thanks for inviting us! Hopefully, we will have the opportunity to do it again.



While we’re on the subject, we should mention a recent re-brand project we worked on for DLC Brooklyn. We were delighted to find out that our re-brand work would be accompanied by beautiful photos shot by Jacqueline.


Jacqueline is a Brooklyn based photographer whose focus is on portraiture and landscape; shooting mainly for magazines like Paper, T Magazine, Spin, Bust, Theme Magazine, and Harpers Bazaar UK.
