NYFW 2012
I spent one afternoon backstage at the tents during this year’s Fashion Week. These photos are a mix from three shows: Jill Stuart, Mara Hoffman and Tibi. I don’t pretend to know anything about fashion but I can appreciate all the work that goes into putting one of these shows on. Hair, makeup, nails, run [...]

Semi Precious Weapons – Monster Ball Tour
Last April I caught up with Semi Precious Weapons during the last leg of the Monster Ball Tour at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, NY. SPW had been the opening act for Lady Gaga’s Monster Ball Tour which had been going on for almost 2 years. I’ve shot SPW a number times now but never in [...]
Backstage Fashion Week 2011
This past Fashion Week I had the opportunity to cover backstage at the Lela Rose show. It was my first time to cover anything in the tents(I usually do after parties). My assignment was to cover the hair and make-up portion of Lela’s show. Needless to say it was a small area and pretty hectic [...]
Bruise Cruise
The Bruise Cruise. An indie rock music festival wedged in the middle of the Carnival cruise ship, The Imagination. I had never been on a cruise so I really had no idea what to expect. Before I went someone joked “You know, The Black Lips are going throw shit off the side.” Ha. So how [...]
2010 CMJ Music Marathon
Every year I say this is going to be the last CMJ for me. Too many late shows in a row for this old man. But every year I still cover it. And every year I’m surprised by what I see. I tried to take it easy but I still ended up shooting every night. I [...]
Comic Con NY 2010
I covered the last day of Comic Con NY this year. I would love to have spent more time on the floor getting atmosphere shots. I spent maybe 45 min roaming around but I was happy with what I got. Next year I’m doing more than one day. Most of my time was covering panels. [...]

The Creators Events series begins this June in New York City with a collection of curated artworks and installations, [...]
Animal Collective @ The Guggenheim
Earlier this year Animal Collective “performed” at the Solomon R. Guggenheim. It was called “Transverse Temporal Gyrus” and was more of an art collaboration with Danny Perez pf psychedelic sound and light. Performance art essentially. The band wore Donnie Darko masks with cloaks and stood on three pedestals in the middle of the rotunda. Sound [...]
The Verbs Listening Party
A few weeks ago I covered the album listening/release party for The Verbs. It was one of those events where I didn’t know anything about the band, the venue or if anybody would be there. But it ended up being a pleasant surprise. The Verbs is duo made up of married couple Steve Jordan and [...]
