ZOOEY DESCHANEL FOR ALLURE

I spent the day with the newly single “New Girl” Zooey Deschanel and got her take on fashion, haircuts and music. Despite clowning me for not knowing shit about women’s beauty products, Zooey was lovely to work with, down to earth and had A GREAT PLAYLIST for the photoshoot. AND the photos (Norman Jean Roy) are great!

ROONEY MARA FOR ALLURE

I spent a lovely day on the beach in Malibu with Rooney Mara – the star of Fincher’s Millennium Trilogy. Despite already being transformed for the role of Lisbeth Salander, Mara still looks amazing in these photographs. Rob Talty and Kate Lee did masterful work with hair and makeup.

NEW : Brian-Quist.com

These last few years in New York have been busy with new clients and exciting projects. Finally I have a website to showcase what I’ve been working on. The site was originally designed by Corin and Alex McDonald. However, a recent overhaul was just completed by Andrew Nedimyer and Barry Sevig – to whom I owe a great deal of thanks. Please dig around, send it to your friends, and be sure to like my Facebook Page for regular updates.

DREW BARRYMORE FOR NEIMAN MARCUS

I’ve directed videos with some of the most extraordinary women during the past few years of shooting for Vogue, Allure and Vanity Fair. This video with Drew Barrymore, for Neiman Marcus’ Art of Fashion Campaign, is one of my favorites. Turns out, not only is Drew one of the sweetest people I’ve met, we also share matching tattoos.
