Jeff, the whitney and the Blue diamond story
Today is the opening of the biggest retrospective exhibition ever made for iconic artist Jeff Koons. One of our favourite pieces is (of course) the ‘Blue diamond’ from 2005! Made of shiny stainless steel and seven-feet wide, the Blue is part of 5 works – the red, pink and green versions that are in private collections.
…You may still catch a flight and land at the Whitney Museum, New York.
It’s a Jeff thing :
-His work Balloon Dog (Orange) holds the world record of most expensive work by a living artist, sold at Christie’s New York for $58.4 million.
-As a child he went door to door after school selling gift-wrapping paper and candy to earn pocket money.
-He is an Aquarius.

wedding bells
What a spectacular setting it was,
shooting some of our favourite wedding pieces!
The Olympic Stadium was transformed into a magical flowery colorful world ready to host all of the happy couple’s friends. Our friend and top wedding organizer Markos Macheropoulos from MR.CO worked with us on using this extravagant setting of a wedding ceremony just about to start and give you some ideas, on precious gems for your big ‘diamond moment’…
