Los Angeles Says Goodbye to Farrah
We tossed and turned about covering Farrah’s service today. We finally decided that since it is a news story and as there was already a large media presence in front of the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels that it would be OK. All of the large news organizations lined up hours in advance and our freelance photographers kept their distance out of respect. Farrah will be missed by Los Angeles and the world.

Tatum O’Neal: Troubles and Triumphs
Tatum O’Neal’s family are no stranger to trouble. Tatum’s father Ryan O’Neal and his 23-year-old son Redmond were arrested at the O’Neal family home in Malibu on September 17, 2008 after Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies found Redmond in possession of methamphetamine and another vial of the drug in Ryan’s bedroom. The two had been charged with similar charges in California the year before and have had a long history of drug use. Tatum herself was arrested for crack possession in New York.

In spite of her troubles, we’d like to shed light on the fact of something positive. And since Oscar Season is coming up, we’ll share this fact with you: Did you know that Tatum was the youngest Oscar winner of all time? She won the coveted award at just 10 years old! She’s also an Academy Award and Golden Globe-winning American actress with lots of good work, mostly from the 70′s. Sometimes Tatum gets a bad rap, but she’s really very talented!
We snapped Tatum as she walked her trusty canine sponsor around the Lower East Side on a bitter cold Super Bowl Weekend in New York City, New York. Tatum has a recurring role on FX’s series “Rescue Me.” We wish her well!

Good Fotos Never Lose Their Relevance!
Here is a great foto that our Brad Elterman took at a 1980 at a Rolling stones concert backstage. That is Farrah Fawcett, Ryan, Griffin and Tatum O’Neal. They all posed for Brad because he asked first! Ryan said years later after seeing this photo that this was the happiest period of his life. This foto is currently appearing in this week’s People Magazine and that is the why photographers should never give up their copyright!
This foto has significance because of all the trouble Tatum O’Neal has been in lately. Tatum has recently alleged that her father Ryan exposed Tatum to his celebrity bachelor lifestyle at a young age. She has made claims in her autobiography that when she was only 13, her father took her and her friend Melanie Griffith on a trip to Europe, where she caught him having sex with Griffith in their hotel room. She also claims that when her father left for a movie shoot, she smoked opium with Griffith and then invited a male hairdresser and his girlfriend to their hotel room where the four of them participated in an orgy that Griffith had dragged her into.

Some Fotos Never Die
This is a prime example of the importance of maintaining the copyright to your photographs. If you have the definitive photograph of a celebrity and if they continue to be in the news, the fotos will sell for years.
All the media is covering the Tatum O’Neal arrest story in New York and that means that they are looking for fotos.
This photograph was taken in 1980 of Ryan O’Neal with his new girlfriend, at the time, Farrah Fawcett backstage at a Rolling Stones concert. Ryan was never big on posing for fotos, but he was in love and in an amazing mood that evening so he let us set up this shot.
What made this photograph so powerful was that it was the very first family photo of the entire O’Neal tribe including Tatum and her brother Griffin.
