been shooting a lot lately… here are a few shots i like:

murder city devils @ sonar

i haven’t seen this band – one of my favorite bands – since… 2000? 2001? I saw them on tour on in name and blood in new orleans. they played with zeke who was (i think) a stoner-y rock band that incorporated clog dancing into their set. even though the dudes in mcd tried unsuccessfully to pick up my then-girlfriend in front of me, they were still awesome. i don’t know how much longer this reunion tour lasts, but go see them if you get a chance.

benny stixx @ no rule

i shot benny recently for his label, bmore original, and wanted to go see him spin. it was a good time, AND he has a new record coming out really soon. get it from bmore original.

unruly records & bmore original + no rule fam

while benny was spinning, DJ Excel from bmore original brought it to my attention just how many baltimore club & hip-hop artists were in the room… so we origanized a quick group shot. from L to R: booman, chris brooks, scottie b, dj excel, rogue, cullen stalin, jimmy jones, derek from unruly, emmy, kw griff

on that same tip, here is a shot from a week earlier of scottie b and dan deacon, two of baltimore’s most influential artists:

vincent black shadow

     
     
i shot these for Vincent Black Shadow’s upcoming album Baltamont, which is now cancelled since they broke up. look them up if you haven’t hard them, they were a really good noisy punk/rock band.

One of my photos was published in the above book. It’s available on Amazon, but I haven’t seen it yet in person.

A promo shot of death metal band Dying Fetus. Shot for Relapse Records. Talented photographer Rob Brulinski assisted me on this shoot.

Some promo photos of my friend Marcus, who is a DC/MD/Va blogger, promoter, wrestling manager, and all-around good guy.

Last week, i shot Nadastrom (Dave Nada & Matt Nordstrom) in my new “studio” (really just my living room, while I save up to buy a permanent space). Click here to view the Nadastrom selects from the shoot

A week or two ago, I did a photoshoot at my friend JP’s boutique in Baltimore, CULT. It was really fun, we just goofed off for an hour or so, and though it was chaotic, I think I got some good shots. Check out the full set of CULT photos. I will be posting more from this photoshoot tonight or tomorrow, too, so check back.

Also visit the store, it’s on Charles between Madison and Read, in Mount Vernon.

I have shot a few promos lately… above is one I shot for Unruly Records’ artist Claire Huxtable.

From a photo shoot I did last week. Just started looking at the images last night.

I photographed the MICA fashion show this year – it was a great time, the designers had some really creative and quality stuff, I was impressed. Check the set out here.

I shot this promo of Rye Rye early last week for Mad Decent. It might run in Spin supposedly.
