Vesa Lehtimäki, aka Avanaut on Flickr, has created some pretty fabulous works of art out of his childrens' Star Wars toys. He has created some creative and very well thought out shots from the toys. He even has a book coming out, Lego on Hoth, which imagines what everyday life on the planet Hoth.
Nikola Borissov's black and white portraits are quite entrancing. It's no wonder he's been featured in high profile magazines across the fashion industry. You can check out more of his photos on Deviantart.
Kim Burke masterfully mixes two of my favorite things: food and design. Her miniature food sculptures are absolutely incredible. She realistically creates everything from apple pie, to sushi, to cheese wedges. The amazing part is, they all look completely realistic and would be hard to distinguish from real food if it weren't for the giant fingers in the photos. You can find more of her work on Etsy, Deviant Art or Flickr.
Lauren Peralta has a wonderful set of self portraits throughout her Flickr account. She just has a way of beautifully capturing herself on camera. I highly recommend viewing her most viewed and most interesting photographs or just wandering through her photo stream. Below are just some of the photos she tagged as self portraits.
Eva Mendes stars in this wonderful series for the 2008 Campari calendar. Eva is featured in twelve different fairytales each with unreal dreamscapes and rich and dramatic narrative. You can find out more about this shoot by reading the official press realease. Shot by Marino Parisotto.
Michał Karcz aka (Karezoid on Deviant Art) is an artist and photographer from Warsaw, Poland. His passion for painting and photography help to create these beautifully surreal worlds. This is just a small sampling of his fantastic work. I highly reccommend checking out his Deviant Art gallery if you like these.
"Most of my work is like a journey to the places which don't exist. Places from my dreams, desire, imagination and fears."
I am absolutely loving this humorous series by father and photographer Dave Engledow. With the help of his wife and adorable daughter Alice Bee, Dave portrays a clueless, sleep-deprived and unsafe father. Each photo features a "World's Best Father" mug, which adds another great element to the project. If you like this series, you can help back the upcoming World's Best Father 2013 Calendar on Kickstarter.
If these beautiful paintings by Evgeny Lushpin don't make you want to travel the world, nothing will. His use of color and attention to detail create amazing moods in his paintings. If you like these, check out more great work on his portfolio.
This dress by the late Alexander McQueen was sported by Lady Gaga on two separate occasions. Once for the September Vanity Fair photo shoot and the other for the 2010 MTV VMA Awards. The outfit also features McQueen heels and a Angels Fancy Dress crown.
It's not every day you get to see such a refreshing set of engagement photos. This wonderful set was shot by Olivia Graham in Central Park. There is a nice vintage feel to the photos, from the outfits, to the makeup and lighting, everything gives you that old-fashioned feel. Let's hope some more photographers can take a page from this book.
