Paul Rodriguez and the rest of the Nike SB team of skateboarders hit the brand new, purpose-built skate park yesterday at Rucker Park in Harlem, New York. With an open invite to the local fans, the boys, including the likes of Eric Koston, set out to please. This was my first time shooting anything like this, I mean these boys move FAST. So here's my coverage...

photo taken last night. record temperature 96. still feeling it...

Portland, Oregon, was a breathe of fresh air, literally. As soon as we hit the road into the city our moods changed. The city was green and humble, the people were polite and friendly and the couple of days spent in town sent us home calmer and at peace. It was exciting for us kiwi folk to be in amongst wild life and grass again! ha!- the New York concrete, or as Aaron puts it- "soot", just don't come off you... no matter how hard you clean.

Thanks to Tim and Drieke for your hospitality xx 

Couple of highlights included Powell's bookstore, could have stayed there all day, PING for lunch, Canoe design store- beautiful gifts! and i got new running shoes, perfect timing!

colette are hosting a showing of artist Jim Krantz in their upstairs gallery space. Krantz famously created Philip Morris' "Marlboro Country" visuals of cowboys and horses, sunsets and deserts, of which menswear designer Adam Kimmel wanted to channel for his Spring 2010 lookbook. The rugged masculinity of the American West was just what he needed so he called in the photographer to collaborate. The shots will be on display a floor or so away from Kimmel's clothes themselves. Running from the 4th January till 30th it will be a definite stop off for any fashion week goers in the city during this time.

During Art Basel Miami we were given the chance to be personally taken through the brand new studios of Friends With You. Friends With You (FWY) is an artist collaborative founded by the two Miami-based artists, Sam Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III. Since its conception in 2002, Friends With You has continued to promote the two artists' common message of magic, luck, and friendship, through its popular designer toy line, public art installations, new-form playgrounds, published works, live performances, and various animation, motion picture, and multimedia projects.

Their new studio and built-in store lies in the design district of Miami in a beautiful building which incorporates design houses, galleries and now, Friends With You. With a very warm welcome Sam and Arturo showed us through their new and wonderful space.

Have a look at our walk through their creative studios, store and offices.

During our time in Miami we meet up with our friend and artist Manny Prieres, who we had met during his time in New Zealand for The Paper Chase show at Plaything Gallery in Auckland. After lunch at Lost and Found Manny took us to visit his representing gallery, Spinello Gallery who were hosting Littlest Sister 09.

We saw some new works from Manny which were all beautiful! and all sold! Yay Manny! Along with the rest of the crew of artists, this is what we saw...

I loved the work in here, especially the cut and paste taxidermy exotic animals! Very fresh and full of life this gallery... a must see if you in the neighborhood.
