About Me

I have been active in photography since my brother gave me his old Nikon FG in 2000 or so. I now keep myself occupied by shooting a ton of live music for the Washington Post and its Click Track blog, and the Washington City Paper and its Arts Desk blog. I've covered everything from obscure free jazz and avant-rock to U2 and Metallica and Britney Spears. I've also been shooting promo shots for bands, events (professional events, sports, weddings, etc), portraits for models and non-models, and the occasional random assignment that falls into my lap.

I have been published in the Washington Post, TIME.com, Washington City Paper, Washington Monthly, Chicago Reader, Guitar World, Revolver, Decibel, Hails and Horns, East Bay Express, Carrboro Citizen, Iron Horse Magazine, USA Ultimate, SilverKris (the inflight magazine of Singapore Airlines), and more (plus websites like DCist, Brightest Young Things, etc).

Please if you have questions or comments, are a band playing in the DC area and would like me to shoot your show, are a band, musician, model or anyone else who would like to set up a portrait shoot, are looking for an affordable wedding photographer, or would like to purchase prints.

I am based in Washington, DC. I'm a Nikon gearhead.
