    Here is a link to some of the stuff that I shot for NYFW, this time around. One show to go– Rochambeau at the Standard. It has been wild, crazy and fun. But, I’m excited to have my normal life back. Hey, I think I might go running. [Image: Loden Dager Runway by me]

    Thursday evening we set out on a secret mission that I dubbed “project: snap tree.” We hit 6 trees, all in one evening. We started in DUMBO and worked our way up town, mixing in some burgers along the way. For the most part these shots were a combination of super long exposures with light…

    I had this thing tonight in DUMBO, and decided to walk back across the Brooklyn Bridge before catching the train. I was rewarded with this sunset. I would just like to iterate that these images are straight out of the camera, with zero editing (enhancement). It was a pretty good one. So ready for the…

    (Above: pensive Reagan during evening picnic on the roof) I got the weekend off to a banging start, last night in SoHo. I had the privilege of meeting several professional skateboarders that I looked up to, as a kid, including original Z-boy Pat Ngoho. We kept the weekend in high gear on Saturday, with the…

    Starting off a bit random– I have been encountering so many good female DJs lately. At an event Wednesday night, K Styles was spinning. She was actually tag teaming with Miss Saigon, who I saw at a Cavi runway show a couple of weeks ago. Nothing shameful about being told “you spin like a girl!”…

    Thursday afternoon, I decided to stop by the Mural the Shepard Fairey is working on, in the East Village. I had originally wanted to go by on Wednesday, but it ended up raining like crazy. Today worked out well, though. I was on my way through the neighborhood, anyway, for the Earth Day party at…

    Yes, this makes two consecutive posts with the word “product” in the title, hahahah. Wednesday evening, I shot a bunch of product images for a forthcoming SoJones piece. It was a lot of fun, as usual. I’m curious to know what other people’s reactions are, to the fact that the collegiate look will be back…

    I met some pretty cool guys, this weekend. They are the guys behind the brand Only New York, a local street wear brand. I am going to be doing a SoJones piece on them, and was able to do a quick shoot on Sunday afternoon. They are definitely cool guys. You should definitely check out…

    Saturday was the first race of 2010 for me. It was a good one to start out the year with, since the weather was beautiful and it was for a good cause (run for Haiti). It was also pretty cool, because it was the first race that our new team “New York Running Club” was…
