A collection of the work and day to day photography of
Washington, DC photographer Dakota Fine.
So I was backstage at SXSW at the Perez Hilton Party... and I see French pop-star, Yelle across the room. I waved to her meekly thinking to myself how excited I was to see her again, after all during her last visit to DC, we had really hit it off during our photoshoot and my photos ended up on her site.
Anyways, from across the room, she exclaims, "Da-kooooo-ta!" in her unbelievably cute French accent of course. Turns out she remembered me... and even recognized me! I was like, "you remember me?" And her response, "of course!" Highlight of my year probably.
Well, over the course of our conversation she asks me whether I had seen the Japanimated version of the photo I took of her and her bandmates for DC fashion designer DURKL. Turns out someone from abroad has animated my photo!
It wasn't until a few months later that someone forwarded me the link to the website, but here it is (tokyobanhbao.com)... the internet, as my mother said, is unbelievable.
It's a picture of the lead singer of the Flaming Lips, Wayne Coyne, inside of his now famous giant bubble.
I happened to get lucky in this instance in the sense that as I took this picture someone's flashbulb illuminated in the crowd, and caught Wayne's face.
You can see the Washington Monument off to the right.

I took this shot for the Travel Channel. A subsidiary of Discovery (which is based out of DC), they are working on producing a television show featuring a group of natives from Vanuatu visiting the United States in a kind of reverse anthropology type of reality series.
The show was bought by the channel from the BBC who had produced a British form of the show called "Meet the Natives."
