I made it to T.O

So i made it to Toronto and have been here about a week now. Blogs have been much delayed due to no Laptop. Im picking one up this week so get ready for a weeks back log of stuff. Life in T.O has already been a blast, lots of eating, and walks. This city takes pride in its beautiful attention to detail. From its personal messages on every chalk board (something iv gathered a world of photos of) to its recycling, merchandising in boutique stores, dedicated "put your old furniture out" day so you can just take each others old shit, and art curation. This city has zero frayed edges and a world of well thought out delights for the most indulgent of minds. Places to eat, thrift, walk, etc to follow. For now, enjoy these vintage Toronto postcards.

Most immediate plans - seeing Okkervile river, making first addition trip zine, getting fucked up in Montreal being locked in a house for 24hrs and making another zine, road trips, antique hunting, breaking hearts. Your welcome to join.

QUARTER OF THE WAY THROUGH

Charles is now 25. 

The day was spent acting our ages till the booze started flowing, then we all turned into c-walk crazy bitches with only one thing on our minds ....DMX

messages from strangers

love in St Margarets

This one is for the abbotts of the world.  This was taken a while ago on a day I will always remember.

HUMAN BUILDING BLOCKS

If anyone know us, it is a fact that we like buildings....  NO in fact we love buildings.  In my next life I want to be an architect as the idea of leaving a a piece of art that dominating and people using it in everyday life makes my eyes light up.  This shoot was a bit of a treat to assist on as I like paper. I like buildings. I like making things and I like black and white photography.

PHOTO PALS

whoever has not checked out besosyfotos is missing out.  This is our sweet ass pal in NY who is way ahead in the blogging circle, she dedicates time and talent on her blog and it shows.  we love this girl.  besosyfotos.blogpot.com

my broken heart

So today is the start of being productive, making shit happen, and blogging the world.  I am going to put this loneliness to good used and make all our dreams come true.

what more can I say.

SUNDAY MORNING EGGS

This is one of our secret breakfast stops.  

Our reasons:

1. A serving of eggs and soldiers

2. slipping coffee out of bowls

3. We Practice our french

This is definitely where we feel at home.

Cuba, a delight

Blog spot is taking us for a ride today only allowing one photo per upload. Anyway here are three shots from Cuba. They pretty much encapsulate the dream like qualities of Righteous Plaisant. These photos tell it how it is, highlight delightful colour pallets, and the people in them hide no truths. Iv never in my entire life met people who are so jolly and kind yet have so little. If you have the chance to go there before it gets turned into a 1000sq mile bingo hall. Please do.

Video shoots

Iv got a world of other photos again i will have to dig these pups out when i get back and get them online. A scientologist Miss Lewis maybe, but a walk over she is not. This women is a blast! And she keeps a crew of hot dudes around her, which is a smart method. Maybe RP need some male cheer leaders. But they just sink pints and are kinda manly instead of cheer. You in? ha ha our honesty gets dangerous some times.

fair grounds and drop kicks ( in the face)

So iv a hard drive of shit here so things are going to get a bit all over the place with uploads. Here is a little photo of the fairground that pops up in pic circus every Crimbo. Its full of shitty tourists you want to drop kick in the face. But makes for rad photos. FACT.

I think I may have the moon on a stick

A few shot from a shoot moon on a stick did a couple of months back.  It involved late nights, glue, biscuits and a lot of fun.  I'm excited about the next.  Daniel Sannwald is a clever guy.  Its all happening, I can feel it. RP

LA/SAN FRAN

Louise (besosyfotos) and xabi on Venice Beach CA

So in clearing out my room to peace out of the UK. I came across a world of things i never quite got online from my last trip. Here are a bunch of photos of photos i shot in LA and San fran on 6X6 MF cam. Il get them printed eventually. There are also some portraits of some London faces some of you may know, or may not. Enjoy 

Chrissie Abbott special

The Darling Chrissie Abbott has lent her hand to a bit of Photoshop work with Righteous Plaisant tonight. Check out our flyer for a Royal night of Mash mash. As you know half of RP is taking off on a dreamer esque rampage via the states and Canada. Spread the Gospel

Headers and fun

So the magical Chrissie Abbott has made us a darling logo soon to be seen all over the states. We will be publishing various Photo zines over the next few months based out of the UK, Toronto, NY, LA, San Fran and various mountains and Log Cabins. 

If you like what you see over the next few months then be sure to pick one up. They will be hand numbered and signed, limited run of 20. May do more if demand is good. 

Craft of Die scum bags

here we go!

So the lumix is kicking off, witness the first photo like an excitable child i lay in my bed last night. Me on one pillow, camera on the other. And saw something i look at daily, but never actually looked at. Its time to retrain the eye, having not had a point and shoot for 6 months (that makes me feel sick) iv missed out on a world of reflection, documenting, shits and giggles. Just know were back, and were playing hard ball. xRP

A FAT FUCKING SORRY!

Bonjour friends of righteous. I wanted to inform your kind hearts and heads that at 1.52 am on Saturday the 7th of September. 1/2 or RP got around to buying a new camera. The new Lumix LX3 is now part of the righteous family. From here on in you will see daily donations and a backlog of fancies. Half of RP is leaving London shortly. So get ready for photo documentaries from various parts of Canada and America.
