After taking a few months off for the birth of her adorable son, Luke, Amy Postle is back in action! Most recently, she shot the cover of Fitness Magazine featuring Caroline Seymore, the reader cover-contest winner. Check out the magazine on stands now! We love how the model is dressed for the season...a cardigan instantly transforms that bikini into winter wear, am I right?! ;)

We're looking forward to seeing more from Amy!

As you scramble to get your last minute costume ready for this weekend's festivities, take a minute to check out these pictures that capture what Halloween is all about: scaring each other! Nightmare's Fear Factory had the brilliant idea to snap pictures of those brave enough to walk through the fright-filled mansion at the exact moment something scares them. They've complied an entire Flickr full of hilarious reactions that makes us wonder what it is everyone is so terrified of!

What are you dressing up as?

Tom Watson's latest advertising work for SFR, the French cell phone company is both fun and playful. For all you who don't know what SFR is, it is the equivelent of AT&T or Verizon in the states. The images were shot in beautiful Marseille, France and when he was here in NY, Tom told us that he really loved shooting this campaign!

Of the many Thanksgiving-themed magazines on stands this month, Marcus Nilsson is featured on not one, but two covers! The November issues of Bon Appetit and Country Living display the best parts of Thanksgiving: turkey and pie!

Here are a few shots from the feature story in Bon Appetit!

Check out more of Marcus' work on his new blog!

Do you have dreams of opening a nail polish color naming agency? Or a store that specializes in custom matching outfits for pets and their owners? Well perhaps CitiBank can help! In their latest campaign for Commercial Banking, James Merrell's shots tell  inspiring stories of growing businesses that might just be the kick start you need to get your idea off the ground.

JoBro Alert! JMI's Lee Clower had the opportunity to shoot Joe Jonas in Calvin Klein for the New York Times. Shooting at the Trump Soho, Lee captured the mature side of Jonas and made us wonder if JJ should take a break from the singing business and take on the runway! Beautiful shots!

Since our photographers are busy shooting awesome ad campaigns, like this and this, we're dedicating Photo Phriday to those super-creative agencies we know and love. Adweek put together a very cool slideshow of vintage photos from some of the agencies we still work with today. Kudos to the costume and set designers for Mad Men-- it looks like they're spot on!

One of the best parts about fall is finally being able to describe things as 'cozy'. After months of shorts and iced coffee, we can finally layer on the sweaters and cozy up in front of the fire, which would be the perfect thing to do in the  fabulous home James Merrell photographed for his latest editorial in UK's Living Etc. "The New Cosy" takes those cold weather knits to whole new level!

Have you seen the latest ads from Birds Eye? If so, doesn't it make you just want to run out to the store and buy the Steamfresh Chef's Favorites? Marcus Nilsson did an amazing job capturing these images! Check them out, what do you think?

Yummy!

Geoffrey Rush, one of Australia's most famous and well-respected actors, is best known around the world for his roles in Pirates of the Carribean, Elizabeth, and The King's Speech. But Geoffrey Rush has also had a stella stage career, which is being honored with an exhibition "The Mad King: Geoffrey Rush On Stage" at the Performing Arts Collection in Melbourne, Australia. This exhibit is a collection of photographs, costumes and memorabilia from Rush's more notable roles. The actor himself asked Hugh Hartshorne to contribute the images of Rush as King Berenger in Exit the King taken at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre in New York in 2009--for which he won a TONY award!-- and Diary of a Madman that Hugh shot at the Belvoir Theatre earlier that year. A must-see for anyone down under!
