Friday dash - and another Stuff Family Time piece

Having spent far too long gossiping over teriyaki tofu with Lil, I now have to spend the rest of the day playing catchup. No time for words so instead you shall have another in the Family Time series I recently did for Stuff on the very lovely Karen Fistonich (below), NZ's first daughter of wine, and how she juggles family and career (click here to read).

Happy Friday everyone...

Family Time - the beautiful Elizabeth Barbalich of Antipodes Skincare

I have interviewed this woman about four times now - including profiling her house for an interiors magazine - and today she features in the latest of my Stuff series on how to manage the eternal conundrum of work and family. It's no exaggeration to say that Elizabeth is as lovely as her divine, organic products. Click here to read

Family Time + Conduct Us

Am still doing the catch up dance so here, from much earlier this week, is the second of my stories for Stuff's Family Time series. This time it focuses on the lovely Tim Chesney, an advertising dude I had the pleasure of working with in Christchurch a couple of years back (and who previously allowed me to ask all sorts of personal questions for a feature for Sunday Mag last year about men's fashion). Click here to read and see the video.

Speaking of videos, just stumbled across this stupendous piece of footage from New York - of a group of Carnegie Hall musicians who set up on the sidewalk and asked the public to conduct them. Beautiful.  

Today's visual is of the furry angel doing his best 'you may photograph me, but only from this angle' pose.

  

Family Time series

For the past couple of months, I've been beavering away on a project for the Stuff website, interviewing a number of notable Kiwis about how they manage the eternal work/family/life merry-go-round.

The first of these pieces, on the hugely talented fashion designer Ingrid Starnes, was published today. Click here to read and watch the video.
