johnny be good
Photographer, Johnny Miller's work, makes me want to crawl into each one of his shots and call it home.
I dug a little further into his site, and found these photos of letters between his parents when they were first dating.
Besides being so charming in content and beautifully shot, It turns out I actually have something in common with this Brooklyn based, Johnny Miller.
He grew up in the small town of Lawrence, Kansas where I went to college. To some of you this is a 'who cares' and Larry what?
but when living in L.A., unless you're a college sports fan, nobody it seems, knows what or where K.U. is.
So, whenever we find a fellow Jayhawker, we get a bit too excited. In the mean time, how about that chippendale chair with the aubergine fabric mixed with the brass Arco-esque lamp.....add a bit of olive and celedon green? yum.

Coll little coincidence, being a small town girl myself, i know how that can make you think 'yeah, wow'

(love these images, btw.)
If I throw one mention out, we all come out of the wood work.
Poor Johnny. I emailed him, all excited that we had this "THING" in common. he responded with a very low key (or at least that's how I read it) 'yes. I meet a lot of people who have Kansas connections. Thank you for the post.'
