Aleks Moto

My good buddy Aleks asked if I’d get a few shots of him on his dual sport motorcycle. I said ‘no prob’. So we went out one afternoon as the temp neared 100(!) and got some fun shots.

Johnson-Miller Engagement Session

This is a post that I’ve been wanting to write ever since I took these photos.  Nick is a good buddy of mine from a few years back.  When he asked me to shoot his wedding, I was delighted, honored and thrilled. We decided to shoot Nick and Hayley’s engagement session over the 4th of [...]

Eat Drink Hoboken

My buddy Ian is a photographer based in Hoboken, NJ.  I hopped the PATH across the river last week to catch up with him and shoot a shot or two (yes, the double entendre was intentional :-P) at an Eat Drink Hoboken event he was shooting.  The happy hour was sponsored by Bacardi’s new Torched [...]

Los Rakas – Kalle

My buddy, Craig, invited me along to shoot some stills and video for Los Rakas‘ next single, Kalle.  We literally shot all over NYC, from nightclubs on Canal St to a playground in Harlem. After pulling a few 20hr days, Craig goes and edits some footage so the whole crew can get a sneak peak [...]

Jolie Styled Greta Then Craig And I Shot Her

I had every intention of introducing these fine folks like characters in a sitcom, but I lack the talent in my fingertips to make it worth reading.  Just know that I wanted to.  That said, these are people you should know.

Friday Fun w/ Stef Lang

Check it!  My buddy Craig did the video.  And killed it.

Are Philly Fans the Worst Fans in Sports?

Maybe. They threw snowballs at Santa Claus decades ago.  They vandalized a mobile broadcast booth recently.  And when I was there to photograph the TD Bank Philadelphia International Championships, I saw this:

2010 Tour of the Gila Photos

Quick and dirty post this morning.  Finally had a chance to sort through some of the photos I took during the 5 stages of the 2010 Tour of the Gila.  Camping and photo editing don’t go together so well… First off, cheers to the event organizers for putting on a heck of an event.  Great [...]

Why Not Now?

Things are a bit heavy around these parts today. In her final spoken- word performance Dec. 9 in Austin, Texas, Gabrielle “Gabby” Bouliane boldly confronted her approaching death and urged audience members to live up to their potential while time allows.

Lemonade

Have you seen Lemonade yet? You should.

72 Musicians

I want to see this. Three years later, my film is done. It’s about hope, dreams, failure, day care, sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll. Enjoy.

All In

Here’s a snippet from a blog post by Bill Strickland of Bicycling Magazine, He’s all in, which was the only way he was ever going to get in. Most of us say we would do the same, given the chance. And that’s probably right. But you’re not given the chance. You have to go out [...]

Style: Jae C Maie Is Now Live!

Just a quick update.  I did the majority of the photography for Jolie’s line and site, and now I’m happy to say that the site’s gone live!  Check it out – Jae C Maie. The ecommerce portion isn’t live yet, but you can still purchase stuff from her Etsy page.  Valentine’s Day is coming up, [...]

Mixed Bag of Inspiration

On the internet we’re all binary in some ways, I guess.  Zero or one.  Off or on.  Consume or create.  As a creator, I find myself being inspired constantly by things I’ve consumed. I’m going to share with you 6 videos I’ve consumed recently that have inspired me, in some way, over the past few [...]

Jae C Maie Redux

Earlier this month I got together and did a little jewelry shoot with my friend, Jolie.  Happy with what we put together, but wanting to explore some ideas further, we hooked up again and created some more photos. Before I share some of the photos I took, I want to point you to where you [...]

SRAM Bokeh, eh?
SRAM Bokeh, eh?

I have a confession. I have an addiction. I’m addicted to magazines. :-P After finishing up some photos for Jae C Maie, I headed into NYC to visit with some friends.  While I was up there I wandered into the Barnes and Noble on 86th St. It’s a) brand new b) huge c) teeming with [...]

Evil Angel
Evil Angel

Time for something a little less serious. I was out and about late Thursday night in DC when it started to snow (the mid-atlantic has just killed the northeast in terms of snow this year.  Odd, that).  Naturally I flopped to the ground and made a snow angel. An evil snow angel!

Odds and Ends

Just to keep everyone up to date on where they can view my photos. A few of my photos from the Gravity East finale were published on cyclingnews.com.  The link to the article is here.  As well, the venue, Plattekill Mountain has provided a link from the results page to my gallery.  You can get [...]

Kaaterskill Falls and Gravity East at Plattekill
Kaaterskill Falls and Gravity East at Plattekill

This post is going to be long.  If you want the cliff notes version, here it is, taken from my Facebook status update – “My weekend by the numbers: 900 miles driven. 1/2 ton of stone and 1 shed moved. 2 waterfalls hiked. 1 bonfire attended. 500 photos taken. Countless beers drank. 9 hours slept [...]

New Lens, CP Finale, Gravity East

Lots happening in the last week for me.  Took delivery of a new lens… …and went and shot the final race of 2009 in Central Park on Saturday morning with it.  It was the CRCA Club Team Finale.  Good weather, good racing (though I hear there was an altercation after the race, boo!) and good [...]

Catch Kissena and Miles’s 2nd Birthday
Catch Kissena and Miles’s 2nd Birthday

Went and shot what’s probably the last race in Prospect Park for 2009 Saturday morning, Catch Kissena.  The format goes, the Kissena team heads out first with a 2 minute head start, the rest of the field has x laps to catch them.  Fun format to close things out on. One benefit of 6:30am race [...]

Floyd Bennett Field – Aug 25, 2009
Floyd Bennett Field – Aug 25, 2009

I stand corrected.  Tonight wasn’t the final round of the FBF series, next week is.  Although, I’d have been fine if things ended tonight as the light could not have been better!  No clouds in the sky and a bright afternoon/evening sun made for some great light. Cat 5, breaking away: 3/4′s w/ a helicopter [...]

Mengoni Grand Prix and Lou Maltese Memorial
Mengoni Grand Prix and Lou Maltese Memorial

Shot two races this weekend.  Both in Central Park, which is ‘home’ to me.  On the upside, it’s tons easier for me to get to.  Conversely, it’s larger than Prospect Park, so the riders do fewer laps, which means fewer photo ops.  Can’t have your cake and eat it too, right? Saturday morning, 6:15am, hiding [...]

Unadilla Pro National Motocross Weekend
Unadilla Pro National Motocross Weekend

This had to be one of the most fun shooting experiences I’ve had. A friend of mine has almost 30 acres of undeveloped land in New Berlin, NY.  So we went camping up there the same weekend as the 2009 Unadilla Pro National Motorcross Championship (pronounced you-na-dill-uh.  I was mispronouncing it for the weeks leading [...]
