Assignments

I’ve shot everything from East Village basement holes to Madison Square Garden and my photos will melt your face.

Whether you need a dynamic portrait for your promo materials or the best concert photography you’ve ever seen, I’m the guy. I have the experience, the equipment and the talent to delivery what others cannot. I can provide a diverse selection of press-ready images within hours of the assignment.

Why Should I Hire You?

I know, your ex-boyfriend’s little brother took photography classes at NYU. Well, if your ex-boyfriend’s little brother will headbutt his way through a horde of filthy East Village emo-kids to get you the money shot, by all means hire him. If not, read on.

You should hire me because:

  • you want your photos to rock as hard as you do.
  • you’ve seen the typical blown-out magazine shots and think to yourself, there’s got to be something better…
  • you’re looking to hire someone who is naturally attentive to detail and who prides himself on an ability to produce dynamic, story-leading images under the most difficult conditions.
  • you’ve looked at my stuff and golly gee, you think it’s the mutt’s nuts.
  • all of the above.

I wouldn’t come into your house, eat your ice cream and drop kick your chihuahua, so don’t use my photos without asking first. If you’d like to use my images for your publication, promotional materials, or if you’d like to buy a print, just send me an email. I’m a nice guy and I’d be happy to help.

Note: If I catch you photo-thieving or otherwise violating my copyright I will come your house, eat your Cherry Garcia and drop kick Fluffy to the 10 yard line with a pair of steel-toes. For Fluffy’s sake, don’t do it.
