I was featured last month on Andy Adam’s Flak Photo Website.

I was just selected by American Photo Magazine as one of this years Emerging Photographers. All twelve winners will be featured in the November/December Issue.
Anthony La Sala, Senior Editor of PDN Magazine recently selected a piece to be included in the Juried Online Exhibition at the Photo Media Center.
For those of you who are new here, when I am not photographing, I arrange, sing, and perform music with Black Sea Hotel, Brooklyn’s Balkan Vocal Quartet. We are in the midst of designing our logo, website, and brand. We are also in the midst of recording our first full-length album this fall. It will be available for purchase by the Holidays. We are LOOKING FOR an Illustrator/Painter/Artist to Design our Logo. If you are interested in being considered for this freelance project?, please contact me directly. Send me your website/online portfolio for consideration. To hear what we sound like, here’s our myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/blackseahotel
Everything is running smoothing with my new advertising reps, Friend and Johnson.

I have just finished an edit of my new advertising portfolio with the help of Designer/Art Director Extraordinaire Sean Mosher-Smith (http://www.echodesignlab.com), Printer Extraordinaire, April Renae (her website for her new Printing Company, based in SF, Dogleaf Studios is still under construction), and Bookbinder Extraordinaire, Richard Verdini (http://www.portfoliocreativedesign.com). Contact me if you are looking for the best printer on the planet. Six Duplicates of this book are in production and will be circulating around the US shortly. Im excited.
Today I helped hang Close-Up at Calumet NYC, an ASMP show curated by Nina Trivedi out of London. Nina also, last minute, also asked me to put a piece of mine in the show since it was my image that was used to promote the competition. I just saw this link that announces this show using my image.

To be said before jumping into my personal business in the last 3 months:I was going to avoid talking about the scary political situation we have on our hands in my personal Newsletter. I know this is not what any of you signed up for and may be annoyed. But, it’s too important to me to avoid, of course, at the fear of loosing some loosing some of you off my list. This is all I will say: PLEASE go to MoveOn.org. Please contribute any money you can. If you can’t contribute money, please think about volunteering some of you time at local Call Parties- These are Parties organized by MoveOn. We are given lists of names of unregistered Voters in Swing States. We drink wine, eat food, and make these crucial phone calls. There are several of these Parties being hosted in Brooklyn THIS SUNDAY which you can RSVP for right here:

Still waiting on Details for the Exquisite Corpse Exhibition to be held in DC at the Meat Market Gallery this Winter. I just shipped my piece today.
Hijacked: American and Australian Photographers, the coffee table book, recently launched additional exhibitions internationally in Perth, Stuttgart, Fremantle, and NYC. Jack Pam (http://www.mapfilms.net) came to my apartment a few months back and interviewed me for their video of the included artists. He was great. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-X5BDPl21Ig (Im at about minute 5)
I think I come off a bit strange I must say- not quite what expected… but I suppose that’s what I get for my mood that day.
