THINKING ABOUT SUMMER ALREADYSummer can either be amazing or a complete
pain in the ass, depending on which side you end up on. The side of the people on vacation, partying and enjoying the good weather... or the side of the people who have to
bust their ass so everyone else can enjoy themselves.
Because while some people are posting beach photos, others are sweating in a kitchen, delivering packages, dealing with customers all day or counting how many days are left before they can escape the
routine for a while.
But hey, every cloud has a silver lining. And even in the middle of the
heat, exhaustion and those
endless shifts, little
rewards always seem to appear that make summer a bit easier to survive.

GEORGE PITTS 2026We’re taking a little trip through the photography of
George Pitts (1951–2017), an American photographer, editor and teacher widely recognized for the huge influence he had on
editorial and contemporary photography.
About 11 years ago I already invited you to check out his Tumblr, but between one thing and another, a lot of images were left sitting in the drawer. So today felt like the perfect excuse to recover part of that material and also revisit his
photographic career, his style, and that very particular way he had of capturing bodies, scenes and moments with a mix of eroticism, naturalness and aesthetics that’s incredibly hard to imitate.
