Just moved my blog over to Tumblr, check it out here: http://blog.adamkrausephoto.com/

a visit with Jennifer Egan

I photographed author, Jennifer Egan last week for Time magazine. I was able to get a proof copy of her latest book, A Visit from the Goon Squad, the day before the shoot. I only made it half way through, but in the first few chapters she mentions the bands Black Flag and the Dead Kennedy's so I knew I liked her already!!
The shoot went great, with the quickest turn-around ever.....the issue was going to press later that night. The magazine ended up going with a black and white portrait, but here are some of the other set ups from the shoot.

AND!!!!!! videos from some of my favorite Black Flag and Dead Kennedy songs

free Nelson Mandela

I wish I could be working on the computer and listening/watching the Worldcup everyday. In honor of its awesomeness and its home country, I present to you The Specials, Free Nelson Mandela, and great cover of the same song by Amy Winehouse

Rolling Nowhere

I just finished reading Ted Conover's, Rolling Nowhere, he became a hobo for a few months in order to write about it for a thesis project. Absolutely amazing book and the last chapter reminded me a little bit of the essay, Climbing the Tower, by Harry Crews.

The imagery in the book is wonderful and I kept on thinking about the photographs by Mike Brodie, equally beautiful.

Cherry Bomb for BUST!

I just received the latest issue of Bust magazine in the mail with my portrait of Cherie Currie of the Runaways. It reprinted so well and is full page, perfect combo! Cherie was the lead singer of the seminal all girl band The Runaways, and Dakota Fanning played her in the movie that just came out about them.

I also have an 8x10 test print that I made before making a larger 11x14 proof for the magazine. 3rd person to email me will get it sent to them for free!
