Check out Marcus Nilsson's feature story in the December issue of Bon Appetit...and then make a trip to your local butcher! Nothing warms up those December days like a hearty roast!

Mikkel Vang captures the comfort of Belgian linen in Restoration Hardware's profile of textile CEO, Raymond Libeert. We love the portrait Mikkel took of Libeert in the flax fields at his family's 150-year old linen mill.

Thanksgiving is just two days away...can you even stand it??!! Here's a preview of that glorious meal we're all looking forward to, thanks to Mikkel Vang's beautiful spread in this month's Real Simple. Pick it up to get some last minute tips on preparing your Turkey Day feast!

This week, Ashley and Jordan from JMI took a trip to Minneapolis to meet with various Ad Agencies and Art Buyers from great companies! Braving the cold front that came over Minneapolis as soon as they arrived, they were warmly recieved everywhere they went. Thus we decided to dedicate (the bit late) photo phriday to Minneapolis. We selected an image of the Minneapolis skyline at night for today! While quite different than the NY skyline we are used to, it is welcoming and beautiful just the same!

Shout out to all of the people we met in Minneapolis who made us feel right at home!

Congratulations to Hugh Hartshorne on winning a 2011 International Loupe Award! He won for the below image and we are thrilled for him!

Remember this Country Living cover shot by Marcus Nilsson we featured a few weeks ago? Well to our surprise and delight, Country Living ran TWO covers for their November issue, and JMI photographers shot both of them!! What a nice coincidence! Mikkel Vang shot the other lovely cover. Looking at these covers side by side, we just can't wait to go home for the holidays. Which one is your favorite?

Walking down 8th Avenue on a chilly November evening, we had a photographer star sighting! The pioneer of street fashion and style photography, Bill Cunningham! Now we have seen the documentary about him and have spent countless hours looking at his images in the Style Section of The New York Times...but it was quite something to see him in person. Amazing New York moment right there folks. Thus, this Photo Phriday is to pay homage to the amazing, inspiring, keen-eyed and still biking Bill Cunningham. Ride on!
