11-10-14 The Cheapest Way to Shoot Street Photos?
11-7-14 I photographed the cast of The Tempest at La Mama theatre
When American Friends of British American Drama Academy (AFBADA) holds a fundraising event, I always try to shoot it. When it’s a performance, it’s fantastic to see the show and then shoot the actors and actresses after the show!
10-27-14 Halloween, the BEST time to shoot photos!
I love Halloween! It’s become one of my favorite holidays; the only time during the year when US society basically says “Hey, dress up in whatever you want, you won’t get judged!” And talk about wild, check out all the similarities it has with the ancient pagan holiday Samhain!
10-3-14 My First Photo Assignment for BigWheelMagazine.com
Getting to review and shoot the LIGHTS show on Tuesday was a real break for me as a writer/photographer! Before that, I only wrote/photographed concerts for the awesome punk website BigWheelMagazine.com Thinking back on my work with BigWheel, I realized I wanted to post those reviews on TheWanderingHumorist.
9-30-14 Lights plays Pinktober at Hard Rock Cafe for Breast Cancer Awareness
If Llana Del Rey is the Queen of Darkness and Robyn is the European Queen of Ice, Lights is the Princess of Day! As soon as Lights was onstage at Hard Rock Cafe (I didn’t realize they had a nice stage) it was “Muscle Memory” and we got energized. Next, there was “Running with the Boys” and right after Lights told us “That’s the first time I’ve heard people singing along to one of my songs.” I can see why they’re doing it. Her music is bubbly synth dance pop that makes you feel good. It’s like a happy combination of Llana Del Rey, Robyn, Ellie Goulding and cool synth pop/rock with a touch of M83. Lights’ wide toothy smile, while reminding me of a Disney TV star, is also… well, friendly and charming. And her performance tonight was done with love. And that always means something. You can’t help but like her.
