Two entries by our friend, f-11 photographer, Sita Mae Edwards have been selected to participate in the “Interactive Portraits” show at the Vermont Photo Space Gallery.  The exhibition runs from August 9th to September 3rd.  Congratulations Sita Mae!

…portraits that “bring the viewer into a visual dialogue with the sitter”. It’s a challenge to have such rapport with your subject that they let down their guard and suddenly you know that you have an extraordinary Portrait – with a capital “P”! – Vermont Photo Space Gallery

f-11 photographer Leo Lam, international plus fashion model Erin Tinsley at Heffner Management and commercial photographer Dean Zulich of VH1 “The Shot” fame, will host a fundraiser to benefit the cleanup efforts from the Deep Horizon Oil Disaster.

Ms. Tinsley started the Erin’s Gulf Recovery Fund not long after the incident.  Besides the fund raising effort, she is also donating her modeling income in August and will travel to New Orleans soon to volunteer for the Gulf Restoration Network.  Unbeknown to many in the creative industry, Leo is also a Lecturer in Electrical Engineering and a researcher in sustainable energy.  Frustrated by the disaster and moved by Erin’s compassion towards the living creatures affected, he joined Erin at her first request.

The fundraiser evening will feature fellow f-11 photographer Keith Allen Phillips‘ firsthand photographs from Florida, showing the devastation it caused the famous Pensacola Beach.  It will also feature photographs from our friend, photographer Nick Zantop who went to the Gulf area and returned with photographs that the media missed, showing the true devastation.

One hundred percent of the proceeds raised at this event will go to the Gulf Restoration Network.

Tickets are $25 and will include a silent auction, two raffle tickets, hors d’oeuvres, gallery viewing and unlimited drinks for the evening.  Auction items by The Seattle Seahawks, Bowie Salon and Spa, Snoqualmie Ridge Golf Club, Jak’s Grill, Hailey’s Cupcakes and more.

ABOUT THE GULF RESTORATION NETWORK:

The Gulf Restoration Network’s vision is that the Gulf of Mexico will continue to be a natural, economic, and recreational resource that is central to the culture and heritage of five states and three nations. Within this vision, we see the mission of the GRN as one of uniting and empowering people to protect and restore the resources of the Gulf Region for future generations. To this end, the GRN works to provide technical support and mentoring to grassroots groups, to connect our members to developments on national and regional issues of importance to their work, and to provide coordination, when needed, of member activities across the region.

The Gulf Restoration Network is a 501(c)3 organization and all donations are tax deductible.

F-11’s own Leo Lam has shot the 2010 F/W C O R S O N line for Derek Andrew Inc.

Leo’s romantic and minimalistic approach complements the line beautifully.  The casting of Seattle’s new international star Paisha Coffey from Heffner Management with the perfect blend of elegance and edge was simply perfect.

C O R S O N is available at SAKS Fifth Ave. and Neiman Marcus, as well as Derek Andrew’s flagship store in Bellevue, WA.

C O R S O N is about sexy sophistication with a downtown edge. Street meets luxe with simple deconstructed silhouettes made from the most luxurious fabrics. Inspired by modern simplicity, C O R S O N is for the fashion minimalist whose look is effortless.
