I’m a bit of a loner by nature; but you can’t do everything alone. Even the Unibomber had the help of the uniformed United States Postal Service on his side. You wanna get married, start a business, have a party, do a thing, make love, dance… you need other people.

This was my profound takeaway yesterday after spending seven hours of my day in various meetings. This is my takeaway after watching Succession (yes, a fictional television show but largely based on the real world) in which the characters with influence don’t seem to actually do anything beyond looking presentable and talking to other influential people.

You better start having the right fucking meetings. Alright, alright, alright.

Found moments are always my favorite. On my fancy expensive commercial jobs, the trick is often to make the neat & clean setup look organic & found. In this regard: a big part of styling is simply knowing what works and having good taste.
