New Pussy

Well on Sat, my girlfriend and I went to a fund raiser for her aunt at a bar in Ft. Ann, NY. We had some beers, some good food and by the end of the night, we adopted an abandoned kitten. So the story goes, someone dropped off 8 kittens to the bar and the owners had been taking care of them. While in their care, some of the kittens kept trying to wander off into the woods, where they had to keep going out and rounding them up so they wouldn't get eaten by anything. Seven of them had gotten adopted out and at the fund raiser there was this pathetic looking lil black kitten left behind that lived under a shed. So we decided to take the little runt home. What were we gonna do, leave her to fight for scraps and live under a shed in the fall? We gave her a bath that night and she seemed pretty clean. She had a ratty old flea collar on, and to our surprise she didn't seem to have fleas....until this evening when Danielle found one or two. That number just blew up after we had put front line on her. Tonight has been dedicated to following this little turd around and picking up dying fleas that have fallen to the floor around her. Well by this point you're probably bored with reading my poor story telling skills, so I'll drop some images for you to see the monster. By the way, she's a pain in the ass to photograph (as sad as that is for me to say haha)

Old Post

Here's an old one that I tried posting but, because it was actually written a while back it posted farther down as an old post. So here it is again, just in case you didn't catch it!


So this was something that I was gonna post a few months back, so here it is:

Hahaha, so I've been looking through a lot of old stuff I shot since graduating from NESOP and I found these pics that have really stirred up some shit. I got a job lead from an anonymous source ;) but the email read something like, "High profile celeb looking for "paparazzi" style photos." So I inquired and heard it was Liza Minnelli. So I figured "Why the fuck not?" I emailed the fella back and he told me where to be and when to be there. So I take the bus from Chelsea to Boston to catch the Green line to the spot. Well when I got there I managed to get a drink and some free food from the bar before getting spit on doing a light set up.......So now I'm obviously stoked! Well about 5 or 6 mins later, the other photog shows up........looking like a HUGE dick in his armani suit and his DG glasses. So here I go, guess I'm gonna follow his lead and here's what happened........"Smile Liza!!!"






























































I was supposed to go to another Hotel to photograph them at Rowes Wharf, but needless to say I didn't haha. I never heard back from the guy in the aqua polo, can't imagine why. And I think that's his son to camera right looking kinda jealous.
