Images I'm Most Proud of

This image is the first of a series of photographs that will be using rear screen projections. Over the years I've made numerous images of reflections and refractions. The idea for rear screen came as when using the shadows on an angled white board it caused the image to lose sharpness from bot

I came up with an idea too shoot in a American diner story for an Italien fashion magazine. I rented a car and drove all over NY and found this Diner in New Jersey . The owners of the Diner were cool and allowed us to shoot all morning. Eventually the Italien magazine purchased 6 different photos an

I hope this is permissible and ok to ask for some feedback on several images that I am considering entering in my Jazz Journalist's Association's Photo of the Year contest. The photos have to have been shot in 2023 and so I did a quick cull of some shoots and came up with these choices. I would be s
