Photo Love {Inspiration}: Movie and fashion inspiration via James Cameron for Harper’s Bazaar

April 16, 2012
Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates.  You never know what you’re going to get.
Forrest Gump
 
What was the first movie you ever saw?  I think the first movie I ever saw and remembered was “Big Trouble in Little China”.  Ahh yes the days of Kurt Russell battling it out and random 80s special effects! I’ve been lazy recently about going out to the theatre to watch movies (blame it on my laziness and the fact that I see lots of movies anyway when I fly back home or for work).  But movies are really such amazing things – they are beautiful animated stories that can either be a stark, reflection of what has or is happening in the world or a vivid escape into fantasy.
I came across this photo shoot pairing high fashion with James Cameron’s most epic pictures.  He really had made a wonderful range of movies (seriously the guy who made “Avatar” made “Titanic” too?!)  That and one of my favorite movie quotes above remind me that life itself can be beautiful, diverse, and unexpected.  You never know what you’re going to get – but you should sit back and enjoy in the meantime!
Have a lovely week!

    Gorgeous fashion spread – I love James Cameron movies, and he has had amazing success with his creativity and vision. Going to the movies is one of my favorite things to do on a Friday night after a long work week 🙂

    I saw so many movies as a little kid (that I wasn’t supposed to). I had young parents who threw us in the backseat with blankets at the outdoor movies and I’d wake up and watch very sophisticated things–like the death scene in Romeo and Juliet, lol. I think Bambi is the first movie that I saw that made a huge impact. I couldn’t stop crying when the mom died.

    WOW! Some people can really translate their inspiration for everyone to see.

    I too agree about James. Seriously. That guy made SO MANY iconic movies.
