Staten Island Ferry. New York, NY (2009)

This very morning marks the second anniversary of my first blog post and a redesign of the website which still stands today. I’ll admit to wading wearily into the blog world, but have since enjoyed every post more then the last. Largely due to the support of those who have commented and remained tuned in over the years! Though I understand this blog publishes less then others, I am proud that my content has remained 100% original and of my own authorship - which can be challenging at times.

So on this anniversary of sorts, I’d like to end by letting you conclude this post. What’s your reaction to the past couple years? What did you enjoy or wish you lived without? What would you like to see more of?

Zac Thomas. Brooklyn, NY (2010)

At long last, I’m happy to share a shoot I did with friend Zac Thomas in March. If you’re having deja-vu, you may recognize Zac as the guy on crutches a few posts ago. These images have been an itch in the back of my brain for a while now, it felt great to work through the take and finalize a few photos today. Though the images are straightforward I think their mood and construction is intriguing, hope you find them interesting as well.

To take us home, here’s an artist that was played for me this weekend by my friend Brice. Yasuko Agawa is an 80s funk and soul singer from Kamakura City, Japan.
