Calling the Shots

Photographer Pete Miszuk chronicles NYC Fashion Week's best looks on and off the street.

Street-style lensman extraordinaire Pete Miszuk (ie: Super Fantastic Picture Time; he also shoots for Elle) was kind enough to pass along photos detailing his Fashion Week experience, and his schedule was hectic to say the least—he went straight from the Last Magazine party at MILK Studios, to bed for a few hours, then onto a plane, then straight to a Dior party in London. Yes, a busy boy, but we love him for sharing his shots with us. And we know you will, too.

How did you start Superfantasticpicturetime? Superfantastic came about from my love of talking to people and hanging out a lot at Tsubi. Basically two years ago Joe Berean (formally of elle.com) approached me about shooting pictures for elle.com. The plan was to just catalog my adventures and misadventures. So for the past two years I have traveled to London, Milan, Paris, and New York, etc covering fashion.

What do you look for when you're out shooting?
I have a love for that awkward moment, not the flawless, Photoshopped picture. I love to take a picture when someone is looking off, not paying attention to the camera. I find myself drawn to certain people and sometimes I feel I need to take a picture of them. Its what keeps me going everyday.
