Scrunchies



PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE DAY / CATHERINE LOSING
. . . .

As a continuation from my last post, this is next level put a scarf on it. Besides, scarves are so 2012 (insert facetious wink). Instead, why not put a scrunchie on it? Now you're talking. Check out this brilliant collaboration between photographer Catherine Losing and set designer Katie Fotis who's love for the 90's and Spice Girls led to a fashion faux pas photo series. Yes, it's an ode to the scrunchie. It's funny and absurd all at the same time. Now where is Elaine Benes when you need her? She really did have a spectacular scrunchie collection to go along with her awesome dance moves.

Scarf Face

Why put a bird on it when you can put a scarf on it. I'm thinking a good old scarf slash towel is the new pineapple. And the combo of the two is the new cat.  Just sayin'. If you don't know, now you know. Makes me want to sing, in the tune of Single Ladies, "If you liked it then you should have put a scarf on it... oh oh oh oh oh!"

Food photography has come along way since the dusty 1970's cookbooks we used to have in our family. I remember  frequently flipping through my mom's goliath red checkered cookbook filled with sepia toned candied hams and jello molds. My favourite chapter was of course the sweets. Those maraschino topped sugar cookies always called out to me, "Hey girl, let's do this." 

It's been a few years since I've worked on food photography, but I still collect a bunch of wacky conceptual images on my Pinterest moodboard. The more original and crazy, the better. It's how I roll. Nom Nom!
