Random Photographs

Every time I plug in a hard drive I find more old photographs that I forgot existed.

Paris - Cafe Les Deux Moulins - Amelie worked here in the film Amelie


Glasgow - the view out my hotel room window


Manchester - Soundcheck and Songwriting


Manchester - Encore Break (this photograph is on the photo book but I realized today how much I love it, the voyeuresque look through the railings of the staircase, the blur in the human movement, the way it feels warm in the room)

Springsteen - The Wrestler

Why is this so good?

New The Damnwells Record + Old Me

First of all, my friends The Damnwells just released a new record, 'One Last Century'. Its fantastic. You can download it for FREE at Paste Magazine.



I spent last weekend in LA taking photos of the band Tonic. This morning at my house I got to thinking about the days when I was a fan of alternative rock music, you know, late 90's, end of high school, beginning of college. I found these photographs in my apartment.

Me + matchbox twenty. 1996.


College. Freshmen year. 1998.


Summer of 1999. I was working at MTV in NYC. Yes, those are frost tips...


Summer of 2000. Backstage rock show. That's me with Jeff from Tonic and two guys from the band STIR. Its almost not ironic that I just spent a weekend, nine years later, shooting them in Los Angeles. Yes, those are still frost tips and yes a leather bracelet.

New York + London

These past two weeks I treated my digital camera more like a snapshot camera, and instead shot mostly film for the first time. I've got 12 rolls to take in to the lab tomorrow.
