tomorrow night: Art Bang!

If you’re in L.A. tomorrow night and looking for something fun to do, you should come by Art Bang! I’ve contributed a photo to this art show/sale produced by Bagavagabonds and benefitting Two Wings. There will be free drinks, live music, a photo booth, cheap art, and many cool people to hang out with!

Andrea LaBarge Mills - The Landscape Revisited






I was especially excited that this assignment came along for the month in which I was traveling to Ecuador. While there I visited a variety of places, from Mindo, a tiny ecological preserve in the cloud forest (top photo), to the capital city of Quito (bottom photo).

Please visit my tumblr for more photos from the trip.

Andrea LaBarge Mills - Cross Process

Andrea LaBarge Mills - Self Portrait



I really kind of dreaded doing this assignment, because it’s a huge challenge to see what the camera sees from in front of it. So it was funny to me in retrospect that I chose to do a double exposure - as if a single shot wasn’t bad enough! But in looking at the work of my fellow TIAPB contributors, I really loved Alexa Miller’s fashion work with multiple images, so I had to go where inspiration took me. Here are some of the images that informed my self portrait:

Andrea LaBarge Mills - Documentary

I spent a few days in the hospital last month, right after this was assigned. Armed with nothing more than a few magazines to keep me entertained (I didn’t expect to be there as long as I was), I took the following shots of my surroundings to keep busy and fight boredom.
