Tamron USA, has done an interview with our dear member Mr. Leo Lam for their April of 2011’s news letter. Leo was also the editor of  Vol. 4 of f-eleven books (dedicated to Seattle Opera).

From the interview:

Leo Lam has become a photographic force on the fashion, beauty, and editorial landscape since he established his commercial studio six years ago. His work has been published worldwide, and his client list spans four continents. It’s Lam’s diverse background (he’s an electrical engineer and a serial entrepreneur by trade, with artistic sensibilities informed by time spent in London and Hong Kong — and a classical tenor to boot) that injects a unique perspective into every one of this Seattle-based photographer’s beautifully composed images.

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.

Our dear friend, fashion photographer and f-11 member, Mr. Leo Lam has shot C O R S O N for Derek Andrew Inc.

The sensual and minimalistic mood of images are perfect for the designs and casting the lovely Spencer Peterson from IMG contributes to these notions.

About Derek Andrew and C O R S O N :

Derek Andrew introduced its retail concept boutique in downtown Seattle at the corner of 4th and Virginia in 1995, in what is today The Dahlia Lounge Restaurant. The vision of husband & wife team Derek & Cynthia Federman was to create an intimate retail environment with a distinctly casual, industrial elegance to showcase their self designed product lines, which then included the upscale and casual Derek Andrew labeled Men’s and Women’s collections, as well as several complimentary denim, clothing, accessories and home furnishings brands. 

Over the next 5 years, the company expanded, eventually outgrowing its original Seattle location. In early 2000, Derek Andrew relocated its operations to Bellevue, and opened the doors to a new retail flagship store in the heart of the city, across the street from the Bellevue Square Mall in a freestanding, modern industrial space.

Derek Andrew is excited to introduce their latest clothing line 

C O R S O N

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. C O R S O N will be available at Derek Andrew in Bellevue February 28th, 2010.

We would like to congratulate Leo Lam, his team and Derek Andrew for the job well done.
