SOPHIA 203 {BEHIND THE SCENES}

Outtakes from our last shoot for @sophia203. We used studio light for our last shoot, but of course, I simply had to take a few shots with the lovely natural light! I ♥ natural light! See our studio look here: Vive Genevieve Sophia 203 Portfolio

Tokyo Dirty Laundry @ Subject Matter Gallery

I wanted to invite everyone out to reopening Subject Matter Art, in Tokyo next week. It is a photographic art studio with pop up galleries, showcasing limited edition photographic art from artists from around the world and my Tokyo Dirty Laundry series will be some of the work featured in their latest exhibition!

The next pop up show will take place in Minamiazabu next Thursday 6 September at 7pm. 

View directions/map & online invite here. You can RSVP here.

  It is an open house exhibition with 25 limited edition prints from different photographers. 

All the pieces are signed, numbered and mounted, ready for display.

The exhibition will also be open on Friday 7 September from 1030am to 7pm if you can't make it Thursday.

Join me for a glass of wine there next Thursday?

Just a few of the shots from our Vivienne Westwood/ Juergen Teller/ Union Jack inspired shoot today. If you know me, you know I can't get enough Juergen! More of the "Union Jack" part soon.

San Francisco Peaks, Harajuku

It's Obon vacation time, and that means waking up a 12, having breakfast for lunch at 4pm, and stumbling upon one of my newest favorite restaurants. Only open a month, San Francisco Peaks in Harajuku has an awesome American style breakfast menu served anytime... and an intriguing interior I absolutely loved despite it's darker ambience. http://sf-peaks.com/

A little deviation from my standard post here, but I always wanted the Vivè!Geneviève blog to be a little bit of this and a little bit of that...So here it is, a little bit of "that"!

@ Pecha Kucha v.93 Tokyo

Super excited that Romp Photography/ Vive!Geneviève (i.e. yours truly) will be providing the images for this month's PechaKucha Mix!

If you don't know about PechaKucha Nights they are informal and fun gatherings where creative people get together and share their ideas, works, thoughts, holiday snaps -- just about anything, really -- in the PechaKucha 20x20 format. PechaKucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. Though originating in Tokyo, there are PechaKucha Nights now happening in over 500 cities around the world!

PechaKucha Mix is a little different than the traditional 20x20 format and is not part of the presentations. It's a little fun foray into improv. 20 images are displayed and 4-5 audience members are asked to improv to those images. I'm looking forward to seeing what the audience comes up with for my images and I'd love to see everyone there, improv ready or not!

The details: Tokyo #93 at SuperDeluxe ¥1000 B1F 3-1-25 Nishi Azabu, Minato-ku, Tokyo 106-0031 [phone] http://www.super-deluxe.com Doors open at 19:00, presentations start at 20:20.
