Today I’m loving the work of Michigan-based photographer Alicia Bock. Vintage-inspired polariods. Gritty, personal and flirty.

Look! This is Love
Come, come, whoever you are.
Wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It doesn’t matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vow

Black hair
Tangled in a thousand strands.
Tangled my hair and
Tangled my tangled memories
Of our long nights of love making.

I’m totally head-over-heals for this new little London-based web company called Moo. They produce awesome, adorable “mini” cards that are half the size of normal business cards and can feature up to five different images on the back of the cards. Best yet, they’re only $20 for 100 cards. Don’t have your own cool images to showcase? [...]
