DesignEnvy had a nice article about this new travel site, called Hipmunk, which aims to simplify and in some ways, beautify the travel planning process. Definitely worth a check out.
The logo and branding could use some work, but once you search, the way it shows the flights is very nice. This is one of those sites that with just a touch more design expertise, could easily become the front-runner in travel booking. Less is more here.

slicinglight reblogged nschaden

Given I’ve been making off and on travel plans for the past few weeks, I’m a bit surprised it took me this long to discover Hipmunk. They’re a relative newcomer to the flight search market, but I absolutely love their very clean, graphical based presentation. The site’s UI could also serve as inspiration to any app or web site with timeline, time or calendar presentation needs.

A Month of Editorial Assigments
The other month, I had the pleasure of being super busy shooting a heathy handful of editorial portraits for Fast company and Entrepreneur magazine.
Laura Ching for Fast Company Magazine:

For Fast Company Magazine’s June issue, I got to meet and photograph Laura Ching who was named one of the 100 most creative people in business of 2011 by the publication, for her online stationary company Tiny Prints. In addition to the still image, I shot a stop motion piece following the same concept which was used for the magazines first Ipad edition.

Pasha Sadri + Jess Lee for Entrepreneur Magazine:



Named one of Entrepreneur’s 100 brilliant companies, Polyvore, founded by Jess and Pasha, has become one of my favorite sites! Being in full swing of re-designing the interior of my house, polyvore is the perfect online tool to create mood boards of my vision for my future home & shop for furniture (saved links and all). Right now the site mainly focuses on the trends in the fashion world.. but really you can make “sets” from anything on the internet. Im there~! Here is my Polyvore profile.

Adam Goldstein for Entrepreneur Magazine:

I met Adam at SFO for our shoot right before he skipped town for a business meeting. Hipmunk, also named as one of Entrepreneur’s 100 Brilliant companies, is a flight/travel search website and app, so the airport location was more than appropriate. And the name of the company.. should explain that t-shirt. : )

Will Hauser for Entrepreneur Magazine:

It was super inspiring to meet and photograph Will. His company Two Degrees, was founded on the idea that consumers would chose their product over a competitor’s based on the fact that the purchase would directly help feed a starving child. You have heard of Tom’s shoes right? Well, essentially it’s the same deal, only they have replaced the shoes with nutrition. Even time you buy one of their food bars (now available at nor cal Whole foods locations) a nutrition pack is sent to feed a hungry child. They are supper yummy.. better than any cliff bar I’ve had.. so the choice is a no-brainer!
