Shot of the Week (6.19.2008)

I like how this image turned out. The lighting, the style and the bed he's sitting on. Ira gets credit for looking like a time piece.
I'm heading to NYC tomorrow to visit Ira and to photograph a wedding with him.
Whats going on with comments on my page? I get around 1 a week. Do people even read this thing?? Do you have opinions? Kick them out to me, I like opinions.

My Birthday Party at The Standard

My birthday is on the way!
Help me celebrate by coming to "The Standard Hotel" in LA.
It should be an amazing night, filled with good people,music,food and drinks!


The Standard is one of my favorite spots in LA.
A great place to relax by the pool in the day and an amazing spot to go with your closest friends for cocktails at night (or day for some of you)
Heres a few images to temp you with. (Hopefully it'll make you want to join me and my crew!)
