All of the above photographs 

were taken by 

 Dominique Nabokov

the no frills "vibe" photographer 

who had her heyday in the '90s

but is due for a 

comeback.

She was doing 15 years ago,

what everyone is striving for now,

a relaxed, lived-in, natural,

no flash, no flowers, no moving the furniture around

thang 

that seems so easy to do,

but isn't.

Hats off to

Dominique!!!

I just added Dominique's 

preface to her book

"New York Living Rooms"

I love her attitude,

which is fresh now,

and unheard of in the 

slick 90's.
