I’ve always been fascinated by people’s faces. The moment when they are conscious of the camera but still let you in to peek at who they are. None of these photos were part of a photo shoot.

I’ve always been fascinated by people’s faces. The moment when they are conscious of the camera but still let you in to peek at who they are. None of these photos were part of a photo shoot. They were quick — maybe one or two tries. I feel that the more photos you take, the more they close up. You’ve lost your moment.

Is David Cross aware that he’s a grown ass man with a soul patch?
Oh, great! Another semi-celebrity circle jerk. We get it. You have been in the same room with these people. Congratulations.
oh shut up these are fun
Yup – those are photos of people….
i only know who 2 or 3 of these people are.
great collection of shots
Albert Hammond Jr is the leader of the “Cool Dad” army
Beth Ditto’s arm
these are actually incredibly good. you do have a knack for the candid shot. thanks for sharing.
they watered down the poison in this town
I knew a samoan gangbanger once and he had all these photos of himself with various celebrities like Willie Nelson, Ted Danson, Rosie Perez, random shit. I suppose when a samoan gangbanger asks to take a picture with you, you oblige. He was a funny guy.
syd shoulda sprinkled in a few pictures of himself. dude is bananas
Who would you rather fellate? Arv or Bradford?
It’s good to see Kristen Schaal getting out and about.
great blog starfucker.
Nick Thorburn (Islands / Unicorns)
did cory kennedy guest post or something this reads like i have connections and you don’t here’s the material. no hatin’, just sayin’. said.
these are rather good. i can smell the jealousy on these here hater’s breath.why wouldn’t you take pictures of these people if you had the chance? and then why wouldn’t you want to show them if they were good?
a zillion times better than all that ‘hipster of the year’ fake/not fake bullshit….
EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW Beth Ditto.
Oh wow! Somewhat famous people!
@Nathan, you mean that hock of prosciutto sticking out of her sleeve?
Nick Thorburn, (or nick diamonds if you prefer) that dude is in Islands!
if David Cross weren’t one of the funniest dudes in the world, he’d be a total fag
That COX guy needs a fucking cheeseburger
haha jeremy gara
nick thorburn is truly a diamond

these are fantastic more more more
dont. give. a. fuck.
looks like a great fucking tour and stuff.
flynn, so if he were a completely different person hed be a total fag? makes sense i guess. if you werent such a fag youd be totally funny.
and your blog sucks. how many loads from guys did it take to come up with that name?
-ya see what i did there? huh, with the title? nice burn, i know.
… god i hate you.
jorja fox is only one I recognized YYEEAHHH
These aren’t famous people. Famous is being unable to walk through a mall because you’d be getting swarmed by shitheads wanting to talk and people screaming. None of these guys had any problems seeing Avatar last weekend.
Emily Haines is such a piece of shit cokehead. Seriously, look at that.
Mel’s eyes are actually fucked up eh? I always thought it was some sorta gimmick for flight of the conchords, but no, they’re genuinely fucked.
wow some of these comments are hilarious. these were photos taken by someone from the band Les Savy Fav.. so you can assume they probably played or toured, etc, people of note they ran into via that. if it wasn’t someone in that industry I’d understand the ‘starfuckerr!!!’ comments, but at least visit the link to the original articles page.
Omar Rodríguez-López’s glasses oughta be thrown in a wood chipper. Why the fuck is the old man from Six Flags ads a style icon?
So much unfortunate hair.
I love Zach Galifianakis.
he does it for me. just does.
jorja fox is the best shot.
Oh look, it’s hipster faggot namedropping disguised as some pussy art photo shit.
dang. you have an interesting life
The problem is not that he posted pictures of somewhat famous people, it’s that he posted pictures of nothing but somewhat famous people.
Syd, do you ever take pictures of people who haven’t been on TV?
COOL STORY BRO
Hey Metric chick; Why the long face? Is the blow all gone?
Hey Demitri Martin; You and the rest of Vampire Weekend really lost your shit on the second album.
Hey Lyla; Sometimes Strokes is ugly folks, but you’re golden. Hang on to your infancy.
Hey Beth Ditto; Rock on gorgeous.
Hey Moby; Readin’ all them New Yorkers just shoves yer head further up yer arse.
@blogderogatorytermforanasian: Are you aware that you just said, “grown-ass?”
