Please don't post my photographs to your blog without asking for permission. Sorry, I don't give out the original files for desktop wallpapers, collages, t-shirts, etc.

My work has appeared in SPIN Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, Pitchfork, the New York Times, New York Magazine, Metromix, amNY, and others. I shoot live performances, bar crawls, awards ceremonies, parties, food shows, and restaurants. My favorite thing to shoot is concerts: anywhere from abandoned ships, Chinese restaurants, dark nightclubs, ornate sit-down theaters, old churches, parks, and more.
