My portrait and headshot sessions are always both speedy and painless. I am clear with direction and I always work with my clients/customers to make sure that they are getting the perfect images necessary before our photo sessions have concluded. See link in bio for more info or DM me for rates.

Snapped this extra shot of Adriano Moraes a few weeks back at the apt studio. He was here to support my Human Race Portrait Project, which is yet to be fully announced. It was super interesting hearing his stories of growing up in Brazil and moving to the US. He’s an incredible artist and writer and works heavily throughout the burlesque industry here in NYC. Thanks for your support !

I enjoy meeting & photographing musicians as much as I enjoy being one. Growing up in the 80’s/90’s, I always had my walls completely covered in posters and magazine pinups of musicians who stood beneath large sculptures of hair glued together by cans of hairspray. No white from the wall was to be seen and there was an endless sea of thumbtack holes beneath. I remember all of the cheesy backgrounds, silly styling, and poor lighting that many of the overly-posed band portraits suffered from in those days. Shooting groups is always a challenge. Schall Music, a trio of classically trained musicians, who are obviously nothing like the types who plastered my childhood walls, were an absolute joy to shoot. “Simple”, “minimalist”, “serious”, “pure” were a few of the words that jumped out at me when I envisioned how I might shoot this group. I think I achieved my goal. Do you? Photographers, how do you stray away from cheesy or cliche photography of the musicians you shoot? What are your do’s and don’ts? How do you like to group your subjects? Do you pose them? Do you let them move freely?

Check out my badass cousin Johnny McPhail! I shot this during my family portrait tour in April 2021. I traveled around the south and took portraits of approximately 45 members of my immediate/extended family, most of which I had never met and some of which I never knew existed. I had the fortune of finding him about 5 years ago through online family connections. Johnny lives in Oxford, Mississippi and is an actor. Him and I stayed up late drinking beers and telling stories. His stories, which included tales of my outlaw relative Speedy McPhail or Johnny’s auditions and work with Tarantino, were incredible.
