street style

Meet Bill. One of my new favs (favorites, if you will).
He is the 80+ year old street-style photographer for the New York Times.
His job description includes riding his Schwinn (rainsnoworshine) around NYC capturing pictures of the truly fabulous.

"Cunningham's enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace."

What. a. guy.
Can't wait to see this!

  1. I'm sure there is no end to the weird in NYC. He seems such a conservative man that he is probably just quietly making fun of all the ridiculous.
