I met Ian at an Armani Exchange party where he was spinning. I offered him a free studio session, if he played at my studio opening party, he agreed. We both got a great deal, since I had a somewhat famous DJs spin at my event, and he got a great photoshoot. In addition to the DJing I also got exposure on the Energy 92.7 website, myspace, and other sites. I ended up giving him my deluxe package, 4 hours in studio and outside

This is another one of those shoots where I don’t know what’s going on until I get there. It turned out to be for magazine advertisements for a Napa high-end clothing store, Mario’s. The models were the owner, his son, and the 3 founders of the multi-billion wine enterprise known as Sutter Home Winery. The shoot took place at the Trinchero winery, which is closed to the public and their most upscale brand, I believe. The theme was from rags to riches, however I think that for these guys it was not ever rags….

When I heard that Matisyahu was doing a $20 concert at Ruby Skye, I could not believe it. When I got there an hour before the show, there was a line to the end of the block, with all the tickets sold out. I had my camera, but still had trouble getting in. It was horrible, I spent 3 hours in the rain waiting. Then my a miracle happened, my friend came out with a cut wristband. I secured it with some tape, and in I went. Needless to say, being on stage during the performance was a lot of fun.
