Last week we were lucky enough to work with some of our all-time favorites on the opening party for ‘Show Me Your Tiffs: 10 Years of Music Photography by Jenny Jiménez’. We were pumped to have been asked to celebrate the enchanting and talented Jenny Jiménez (and her photos!). The always sensational Patrick Wright filmed the party for posterity. Here is his first outtake; featuring comic relief by the singular and soulful, Damien Jurado, who is not only one of the subjects of the show but also performed at the opening. Stay tuned for more video footage of Show Me Your Tiffs! And go see Jenny’s work at Skylark Cafe. It will be up until December 14th. show me your tiffs: outtake from Patrick Wright on Vimeo.
