Lucia Holm

Lucia Holm
everybody!


is one amazing chick! She mostly does self portraits which means she models/design and take the photo's all by herself its amazing! Her work is to drool over and I can't seem to get enough of it either.











and here is a little bit more about her.....


Hello all!

My name is Lucia Holm, but my friends call me Lulu.

You may know me as Miss Lulu & The Teaspoon Shortage (if you are a myspace/flickr member). I received my BFA from Rhode Island School of Design in 2004, and my MFA from New York Academy of Art in 2006. Since then, I've been doing freelance work, both fine art and photography related. Each photo is taken and edited by me (and styled thus far).

Every photograph I take is a wonderful learning experience..I'm interested in working with new faces (models, makeup artists, stylists, etc.)--Can't take self portraits forever!
If you are from the NJ/NY area, and we see eye to eye, I'd love to work with you!
I'm just an hr from Manhattan, and 15 minutes from the beach here in Central Jersey.

HAPPY TIPS

ITS WINTER TIME AND I LOVE SITTING CLOSE TO DIM LIGHTS JUST BECAUSE IT FEELS

I want to ride a bike with my husband but ours got stollen ... :) which is unfortunate
its ok because its freezing here at the moment , but when the sun pokes its head out on the weekends it makes me want to dance in the sunlight

I think its so easy to forget to have fun! With winter creaping up all of a sudden and we are all stuck in our houses there isn't much fun things to do unless your drinking an entire can out of Milo everyday & watching endless movies!
So I want to hear from U what you like to do as fun (5 tips)?!
Because I am out of ideas and need inspiration from ALL OF YOU!
Provide a simple few tips and it will benefit us ALL..

  1. try not to stay at home all the time and make efforts

  2. in going for walks and feeding the ducks

  3. try and find a place you have never been too close by, for example:
    restaraunt,video store,op shop,gallery

  4. do something out of the ordinary everyday, (if you keep walking pass a shop you have never been into go and have a look anyways, there might be hidden treasures)

  5. smile a bit more, and laugh at silly things

  6. bake something
HAPPY TIPPING EVERYONE !
LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR IDEAS...
