Work
Some recent work for the USO!
Service members, veterans, volunteers, Yankee staff, and even Joe Girardi himself attend the 2014 Veterans Day Service event held at Yankee Stadium. Participants lined up to make care packages that will be shipped by the USO to troops serving in remote units throughout Afghanistan.
Tonight is the regular season home opener for the Brooklyn Nets, which means I'll be spending a lot of time at The Barclays Center in the coming weeks. Season tickets court side? Close! I'm working with the Nets' entertainment and marketing departments to capture new images in and around Barclays. These are fun, hectic nights and I definitely get my cardio in dashing around the arena getting the shots I need. Looking forward to the start of another season! Go Nets!
Some images from the first two pre-season games...
Frantic emails from clients are pretty common in my line of work. Last minute cancellations, quick turn around times, and even location changes are pretty par for the course when it comes to these last minute jobs.
Such was the case when the USO came calling, and I was happy to step in last minute and help a great organization and a very grateful family.
Army 1st Lieutenant Beau McNeff surprised his family when he showed up at NBC Studios in Rockefeller Center here in NYC. His wife, Cecilia, mother, Jude and his children were thrilled to finally have him home.
1st Lieutenant McNeff also met his infant daughter, Alexandra for the first time.
My image of the McNeff family with the new USO President, Dr. J.D. Crouch II appeared in On Patrol Magainze, the official magazine of the USO.
The USO is a great organization, and as the son of two retired Navy parents, I know how much they do for military families around the world. It was an honor being able to document such an important moment for Beau and his family.
Way back in July I tagged along with Trunk Club photographer Lauren Atkins to help out with her interview with Sam and Liam Fayed of Bespoken. Sam and Liam's father owns the 130-year-old shirt making company Turnbull and Asser, responsible for dressing icons like Winston Churchill, The Beatles and even Picasso. Bespoken, located right above the Turnbull and Asser New York location, is adding an edgier and youthful spin to traditional custom clothing. It was a fun afternoon, and along with detail and interview images, I also got in a quick portrait before we left. See more images and read Lauren's interview HERE.
