"James, 2010"

During my summer photographing in Union Square I met James. He created his own line of custom t-shirts. His website is jawmaker.com, check it out.

The Roots "The Fire" Music Video set

I had the opportunity to be a P.O.W. in The Roots newest music video "The Fire." It was an awesome experience and very different from what Im used to doing with my photography since I was "acting." Anyways here is one of the stills from the shoot. I am on the right-hand side with the black beanie folded up.

street vendors

Here is a quick unedited scan of a portrait I made about a week ago in Union Square. It is for my street vendor series, in which the USP grant is supporting. This guy was ridiculous. He was rehearsing to me a very fictional and confusing story about "Sausage Head" (the book he is holding). He was very anxious to leave and I literally set up the tripod, leveled the camera, focused, put the film in and pulled the darkslide in under 2 minutes flat. Everyone moves so fast in the city, I still do not know where 95 percent are going. I am also pretty sure cab drivers are like hermit crabs, once one car dies they crawl into the next and drive away.
