I had the pleasure of being the Producer on a Shabazz Palaces short film we shot this past year. It was an incredible experience working with such a talented group of people to create something for a band whose music means so much to me. Originally it screened as part of the FRYE Art Museum’s Moment Magnitude show but is now online for everyone to view.

My first coverstory for Seattle MET is out on stands. I had the fun assignment of running around Seattle shooting the best bar’s that feature equally as good of food as their cocktails. I did my best to restrain from trying every drink they made….I cannot say the same about not trying each plate of food. Needless to say, my photo assistants were stoked.
The Murphy’s Oil Soap 2013 Campaign I shot launched on their website & Pinterest yesterday. It was hard to beat the classic Grandma Church Ad but we did our best.
I had the chance to shoot Glenn Kelman for Bloomberg Businessweek’s latest issue. The article talks to the CEO’s of the leading online real estate company’s. He was a super interesting guy to talk with and turned out to be an investor in my favorite Seattle breakfast spot.
