Walt Disney Concert Hall
Canon EOS 1D Mark II
On March 9, 2006, my brother (who was visiting from the east coast) visited the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles to take some photos of the inspiring exterior.
It wouldn’t be until March 10, 2017, that I’d finally get a glimpse of the amazing interior thanks to a generous friend who shared a ticket to an acoustically impressive & genuinely intimate concert by the always impressive Glen Hansard.
Lupine Spring Catalog
In early 2006, I was contacted by Lupine, a dog accessories company on the east coast. Although I had no professional experience shooting animals, they liked my portraits and wanted to know if I’d be interested in shooting for their spring 2006 catalog.
Work with dogs!? Are you kidding me? Of course, I said yes.
Lupine was the first company (vs individual) to hire me for a full day. Little did they know I probably would have done it for free.
Working with dogs was an awesome experience. As was having my work adorn the front & back covers of their spring catalog.

Stevi 1A
I worked with Stevi for the first time in September of 2005.
Although she was only just getting into modeling, she was naturally talented, effortlessly beautiful, extremely humble, and was a whiz at doing her own makeup. She was everything I had been looking for in a collaborator.
This shoot would mark the first of 5 sessions we would do together before I prematurely left the east coast for California.

On a rainy day on Cape Cod in 2005, my brother and I passed some time taking photos of water dripping from the roof.
The first and only time I’ve ever tried to capture high-speed imagery (on purpose).
