Backstage at a fashion show is so hectic....I love it!!!


Outside of the show, there was some awesome street art...nicely juxtaposed to the high class fashion crowd.




This lady and her friends were awesome...hello to my friends in California and Texas.


On the way home, I ran into this guy randomly in chelsea...I overexposed the photo, but you can still see what his sign said...I feel him.


And once again...it's gotta be the shoes.

Rock the Bells NYC - aug 3, 2008

Peace.
This post is one for the records - I unexpectedly ended up at the Rock the Bells show in New York that took place at the Jones Beach Amphitheater. Thanks to Shah and Suemyra, I saw one of the best shows that I have seen in the past two or three years as well as got some dope photos. I missed De La, and a bunch of other cats, but the acts that I did see, were pretty amazing. Performers included: Ghost and Rae, Black Star, Pharoahe Monch, Nas, Jay - Z, A Tribe Called Quest, Method Man and Redman...and many others. Check out the full line up at http://www.guerillaunion.com/rockthebells/

From the time that we got in the spot, the day was hectic...security was sweating me backstage, even though I had a media badge (good look Seven)...there were mad people...and I was running around trying to capture the action backstage as well as on stage.

First up -- The Mighty Mos Def
He was later joined by Talib Kweli.

Pharoahe Monch tells them to, "GET THE F*CK UP!!!"



Backstage -- the natural leaf.


Dope tattoo.


Slick Rick.


DJ PREMIER.



Dres Backstage.


Method Man and Redman.


I'm on stage with METH!!!!!!!!!


Redman and Method Man.


Redman was in a zone all night...


Meth in the Lights.


If you find a bag of weed on floor, what you gonna do?......


Redman and Keith Murray.





Red and Meth brought out EPMD...What!!!!!



During Nas' set, Jay Z rocked a song or two with him...it was kind of awesome.
On another note - a lesson to all would be photographers...always be prepared.





Before Nas' set started, I was backstage chillin, and I got tired of holding my camera, so I put it in my bag. Not more than two seconds after I secured the camera in the bag, did I turn around and see Jay-Z standing three feet in front of me. I say, "Wow", and then "What's up" and think to myself how ironic it is that I did not have my camera out. He said, "what's up" and kept it moving.
After Nas' set I had to go charge my battery, so I found an outlet way back in the cut near a stairwell. I was kneeling on the ground switching out the battery of my camera and realized some people were walking over to me. I thought to myself that security was about to harass me, but when I looked up, it was Beyonce..?!! She smiled and said, "What's up", and then Jay-Z walked by and said peace...it was crazy...again, I was not ready with my camera!!!

But anyway, back to the Nas performance.


And to finish off the night...A Tribe Called Quest.



Watch the slide show -- there is a lot that you haven't seen!!!!!!!!!!!

What a night -- Hip Hop ain't DEAD!!!

GEN ART - Shop NYC event

Sorry for the lack of posts...a lot has been going on. I recently purchased a new camera and I have been doing a lot of shooting with it -- have to work out all of the kinks. A lot has been going on...first up is the GEN ART SHOP NYC event. This event took place at the Metropolitan Pavilion in Manhattan and brought tons of designers and fashion people together for a night of drinks, discount clothes and an all around good time. Check out the slide show.

If any of your pieces are displayed, send me a note and I will put you in the keyword section.

Divine Chocolate, NBA party and Pink Elephant

So...I woke up at 6am Wednesday morning and worked a product shoot for Divine Chocolates (above) -- I did not go to sleep until 5am Thursday morning, after shooting a NBA draft party and the afterparty at Pink Elephant.
The NBA event was insane...one entrance/exit and a massive amount of people trying to get in, all of whom were on the list. After a twenty minute discussion with the doorman, I finally got into the party...nice cars, free drinks, and free food...cool.
Have a look.

Below, we have former NBA player, Kenny Smith and John Gado of Money Clothing.

The afterparty for the event was at Pink Elephant...if you have never been to the party at Pink Elephant on a Wednesday night, you need to check it out.
More free drinks and a lot of people that were not camera shy.
Below the pictures, there is a slide show...if you were at the party, you might see yourself.

Nice hat.

Gotta love the pink pants.

Check out Azad watches...real cool cat.

Self Portrait.

Hello.

Always show love to the DJ.

It's gotta be the shoes...

I am surprised by how many people make out on the dance floor...who knew.

It's a party!

Like I said, it's a party.

Another little tidbit that I didn't know...girls are allowed to make out with their female friends...and it is not really gay, they are just having a good time.

Guns N Roses is one of the dopest bands EVER!

SO...what a night. Holla
