A Huffington Post photo editor contacted me about the stripper strike photos I took for Los Angeleno, asking to license two of the photos. I showed him the rest of the take that Los Angeleno didn’t publish and Huff Post took three images. It went up this week with a story.

I feel like I’m having some momentum at the moment - or at least creative momentum - with photographing Pride and working for Los Angeleno on a food story TBA.

I don’t know if I’m at my (visual) best, but I’m having a good time exploring new places, new assignments and working with new editors. I think the only way to get better is to try new things and shoot a bunch of terrible photos and video.

Bring all the work; I’m ready.
