Would Warhol Be Proud?? We think so!

So I think we are all slowly recovering from the amazing time that was had at The Modern Leisure presents Factory Party 4. It was AMAZING. So many outfits, left right and center, beautiful people and beautiful art. This is a preview of some of the people that kindly let me take their pictures on that night.

Stay tuned for more and see if you made the preview over at our Facebook Fan Page.

So we've been a little slow with posting this week but only because we've been busy with photo shoots, Factory Party 4 CF installation planning, constructing and bouncing ideas between the team and not partying our butts off due to the state of American politics right now. Like the "leader of the free world" is doing, we have been working hard to take on new directions and teaming up collectively to push this lil blog ere a little further. Even though things have been hectic here there's a lot of stuff to post about.
