It Happened in New York...
A rather random selection of various happenings, festivals, parades, celebrations, openings and other events shot around New York City between 2009 and 2019.
Although my active times in this area fell around the close collaboration the the Time Out New York, you can still see me out and about, capturing the most exciting of today’s times.

Time Out New York – Assignment Showcase
A brief compilation of my favorite assignments from my Time Out years (2013—2018). All photographs have been taken ‘guerilla style’ – in a working environment, often at their busiest time – using portable lighting set-up and always hand-held. Minimal intrusion to the ongoing service was important, with express delivery, often with same-day turnaround around tight print deadlines.
Challenging and very, very enjoyable. I could not imagine a better way of immersing myself in the city’s bar and restaurant scene – from small mom-an-pop shops in Queens through most fashionable Manhattan establishments.

Nightlife
Of the City that Never Sleeps...
As a long-term Time Out New York contributor, I had a fantastic opportunity to crash some of the most iconic and famous NYC parties. That collaboration allowed me to discover what’s best around town after the sunset, while giving the organizers an excellent opportunity to promote using Time Out well established brand.
My efforts were most active between the years 2007 and 2015. Recently, the scene has changed, and so did I. Nevertheless, you can still find me shooting at select (read: best) parties around town.
I hope to see you there!

The Best of What NYC Arts Has to Offer...
The specialization photographing New York’s major cultural institutions has created a extensive portfolio across multiple areas. The images are constantly promoting major NYC museums, their exhibitions and public programs. Chances are, if you visited their web-site or saw their catalog, you saw my work.
My knowledge of photographic reproduction is also applied in strictly technical tasks like interior photography, documentation or condition reporting. Not pictured here.
Below is a quick selection of some of my favorite ‘Museum Experiences’ assignments shot over prior years.
