Kinfolk dinner series | brooklyn

A beautiful candlelit dinner at The Green Building last night...


I left feeling inspired and motivated to produce better work and have higher ambitions. I sat next to the lovely Saer from Craven Maven and the multi-talented William Hereford. Grace Bonney was a few chairs down and I regret not saying hi, but I didn't know if I'd have anything intelligible to say without sounding like a gushing fan girl. Leo Patrone (whose wedding work I LOVE) was there doing his thing with his Contax(es). Can't wait to see those film shots. It was also fantastic to meet Nathan, Amanda and Cree, and etc.! I hope our paths will cross again in the near future. :)

Grace is super sweet! I had the chance to meet her last summer when she was staying Lisa Warninger, who I was interning for at the time.

This is such a gorgeous collection of images Alice. Some of my favorite from you yet. Wish I could have been there...

Kimberley said...

Ah-mazing. Can't wait 'til they make it to SF.

twiggs said...

can i say that i just loved the part with grace bonney? you know when you think that someone won't feel like that because you admire so much the work that you don't imagine that person feeling shy about someone else? that was me about you! :) and now i find it so interesting that you also have these feelings towards someone else. it's like you imagining grace not saying hi because she was feeling shy :) beautiful photos and that dinner must have been just delicious!! twiggs

Vickie said...
