"I called my dear friend BJ Barratt, who is a great photographer as well as organizing artist showcases and doing some freelance artist development. BJ was more than happy to help out...we headed to Times Square and got down to business. We started at the Crossroads of the World, where Broadway and 7th Ave meet, under all the infamous lights. I stood up on a road barrier with my telecaster and we got some amazing shots." ~ Will Hawkins

A lot has changed since I last saw you.. yes, I have an amazing boyfriend, which is probably the biggest development! I've also pretty much removed myself from the NYC music scene. I miss playing shows sometimes, but overall I'm happy with my decision. I'm focusing more on writing and getting my own stuff together, so I may be back... you never know. :)
How are things in your world, darling? Gosh, it's been ages! xx
Hi B.J, Thank you for the add!! I have been pouring over your photographs, and I can honestly say, I have never seen such beautiful work!! You are blessed with an amazing talent!!!
So BJ, if all these artists give you a moment to breathe, I could so easily see your talents in what is apparently the must-do thing on Long Island for fatties like me: preggo portraits! (Esp. since all the photographers I know of who do this are women.) I have not met one preggo girl who is not doing this! Whilst I think it is a bit odd, I suppose it is a nice way to celebrate such a (special?? yeah right!) time.
hey bj, we're nominated for deli magazine's artist of the month. If you would be so kind you can vote for us here- http://www. thedelimagazine. com/snacks. php thanks, -The Dig
GREAT PICS ON YOUR PAGE! XOXOX JOEI " Love was the former owner, now quiet is renting our house. It ceases my lips from speaking, but forms a sarcastic smile. Suspense now raised one of your eyebrows, you asked me if there's someone else, i replied yes, HELL YES, and her name is ..... ME!” JOEI SKEFFINGTON I CHOOSE ME available on Itunes and www. joeimusic. com
Bj! That was such a great shoot the other day.. I had such a good time as well. I have to confess, I did slightly regret not grabbing that shopping cart at Fairway and doing some shopping, in retrospect!! xM
I just wanted to reach out & thank you for your comment this past week. Being friends with great people like you brings a smile not only to my lips, but also to my heart! Also, come check out my new blog at www.adrianrhen.com! I try to share some positive energy and funny moments with everyone daily.
With a warm hug on a cold day in NYC, ~Adrian Rhen
