Story of an Artist...

Sometimes you come across something in life that is so different and true that you are forced to either embrace or shun it. I have always been amazed by the raw simplicity and sincerity that is Daniel Johnston's music "...you start off hearing this noise and then eventually you hear the Beatles..."

Seeing Daniel Johnston at a show in Philly last Friday did not disappoint.

Steve

A friend contacted me one day to see if I was interested in shooting an album cover for a band called, "Steve". I had met some of the band roughly 16 years ago and over time had the opportunity to work with them on various projects. It is always an honor and pleasure to work with these guys.

Simple shot for an awesome band.

Best of 2007

This is one of my favorites promotions that I shot last year. This was shot on a Sony XDHD camera and all the effects (overcranking and shadow movement) were done in-camera.

More past shoots...

When we shot this it seemed like just another day at work. But in seeing the edit the spot became a nice surprise.

Producer/Director: unknown
Stylist: Christine McDonnell


I really love this shoot. While the setup was a nightmare everything came together in the end and Cynthia Garrett was an absolute pro and joy to work with. As a side note - I did not shoot the drum sequence. This was masterfully shot by Scott Kinkade.
