Last week, I shot Of Montreal and James Husband’s tour kick off in Baltimore. It was a fun show, though I was SO SICK. I apologize to anyone I spoke to at that show, I was totally delirious with fever and probably made no sense. This was one of the most grueling photo editing sessions ever, since I had to file the photos by 9am. Somehow I managed it between fever dreams and dry heaves.

Check out the full Of Montreal photo set here.

Earlier this month I shot Deacon from Animal Collective’s first solo show, with Dan Higgs and Jason Urick. Click here to read the article on Spin.com. Click here to see the whole set.

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

I did still photography for the first Mz Streamz video ("Tear It Up"). They shot this the summer of 2008 and I wasn’t supposed to post these until after the video debuted, but I forgot to go back and post them after the video debuted! So here they are…
