photographer Jimmy Fontaine linked up with the southern california clothing company COMUNE to put together a rad little photo exhibit last night in Costa Mesa.... Jimmy grew up in san diego photographing his friends making music and skateboarding and has managed to successfully transition his experiences into a strong career as a fashion photographer in NYC. the group of work shown in the "Everything Went Black" exhibit was a split collection of fashion focused portraiture and live band photography, with the majority of the work showing off his strength in capturing black and white photographs with gorgeous saturation. here are some shots of the free little zine that Comune made for the show, it's a 5.5" x 8.5" folded and stapled book printed on newsprint...
i took some iphone shots of some of my favorite images on display, unfortunately there were too many people inside for me to get a full shot of all the work. these next 2 shots were on the longest wall of the gallery, and the majority of these images were from his fashion and professional work portfolios...
the two rear corner walls of the gallery were where there was a huge photo collage of some of his live band photography. here is a small selection of the work on display...
