New website is up and running

I'm proud to announce that my new website is finally up and running! Check it out at www.tarakfoto.com.



My goal with this website is to really highlight my architectural and interior design photographs and my travel work, as well as weddings, events, and my personal work in documentary. I hope you enjoy it.

Buy a t-shirt to support polaroid's comeback

Start celebrating the 2010 comeback of the new and improved Polaroid film. The Impossible Project's 12-man team was this week commissioned by the Polaroid company to develop a contemporary - and affordable - version of film by end of 2009 and manufacture by mid-2010. The team is based in The Netherlands in the former site of Polaroid's Integral Instant producing factory.

Want to help the cause? Buy one of these t-shirts. All proceeds go to factory operations.

Pho & Asian Groceries

I can't think anything better on rainy day than a massive bowl of pho bo, Vietnamese noodle soup with beef. It's been pouring non-stop the past 4 days here in Washington DC. No fun. Noodles are my comfort food and I inevitably seek them out when it's raining, I'm hungover, or in need of some food love. My friend, fellow foodie and Asian, Michelle (check out her blog, Lavender & Cocoa) trekked out to Eden Center in Seven Corners, VA to eat pho and hit up the Vietnamese grocery store, and below are some iPhone photos (using my fave app, Toy Camera) from today's adventure.
