FROG Portraits

By michael lavine in Workplace

And now for another installment of my exciting new portrait project, (of which I dont have a proper title for as of yet, but in light of the current state of the job market I have been calling it “The Employed” or “Workin Folk” or “People with Jobs”). I recently spent the day at the FROG design company on Varick St in downtown Manhattan and made photographs of many of the employees working there. Each person donated about 10 minutes of their precious time and taking advantage of the natural environment of a bustling design firm we did some improvised image making, . Everyone was incredibly gracious and it was a pleasure to be there. If you are ever planning on visiting FROG, make sure you go on Fridays at 4:00 so you can have ice cream with the whole crew!

    I love these workplace portraits, they look great. As for a title, might I suggest the Fortunate Few?

    Hey Michael,

    Out of curiousity, did you happen to run into Katie Swann on this shoot?
    If you hadn’t it would be bizarre – she graduated a year ahead of you (a year behind me) at South and also went to Evergreen.
