I'm not sure exactly when it happened, as I don't click over all the time, but the gallery is at this link and I love these images when they cross my screen each weekend.
Paul Rudd is above, Neil Patrick Harris below, and the rest are at the link provided.
I just adore this picture of Neil.
For years this job was the domain of the statuesque Edie Baskin. In college I had a bunch of her images on my wall as posters, including the Coneheads and my dear Gilda (who named her dog after my mom) as Roseanne Roseannadanna. In fact, it was the image below.
I used to toke up (this was years ago, remember I'm old) and sit in front of it and do my impression of her. And to answer your question? No, I didn't date a lot in college.
Edie Baskin's dad is the famous ice cream guy, her brother is a composer for TV and film.
About Ms. Matthews, from her agency's site, JedRoot.com:
For the past decade and a half, Mary Ellen has been a top entertainment portrait photographer, creating colorful, iconic images of every well-known personality of the age. Her work documents the uber-famous in myriad fields, from pop stars (Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Janet Jackson) to politicians (Al Gore, George Bush, John McCain), sports legends (Tom Brady, Derek Jeter) to rock gods (Mick Jagger, U2, Neil Young). Her experience includes film and television stills and publicity, advertising campaigns, celebrity weddings, and rock tours.
Since 1999, she has been the photographer for Saturday Night Live, where she has been responsible for creating (and recreating each season) the distinctive look of the show’s still images. Through creative and playful styling and a demeanor that puts her subjects at ease-as well as intense post-production work-she produces unique and recognizable portraits under the manic deadlines of live television.
I've just contacted Ms. Matthews at Facebook. If she has any upcoming shows of her work, I'll add dates and locations here.Yes, I'm suggesting you leave your TV for a while. It will be there when you get back. And, you should have a DVR by now anyway.
