City Harvest - A Night of Practical Magic

City Harvest are just good people, my favorite client and an organization I'm proud to work for. Last night was their big spring party at Cipriani's in midtown New York City.

Photo published in New York Times

There's nothing like getting a photo published in the New York Times, especially when it illustrates a feud between two rich celebrities who seem to be ignoring each other. So sad :(

This image was taken for Giuseppe Zanotti on a paid assignment for Getty Images on the final Fashion Night out that happened back in 2011. There were many celebrities that came that evening, but by far the most buzz was around the arrival of Nicki Minaj in her faux Geisha outfit.

AOL BUILD Series Presents:"Out Of Time"

It's always a pleasure to work in the AOL building, and especially when you get to hear such a great actor speak about his new film. Richard Gere plays a homeless man on the streets of NY and a lot of "Out of Time" was shot as candid footage of him actually on the street panhandling.
