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.

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...

I have over ten years of experience working as a contract photographer for major museums in New York City. Specializing in documenting the city’s leading cultural institutions, I have developed an extensive portfolio spanning exhibitions, collections, installations, and public programs. My images are regularly used to promote museum initiatives across digital platforms, catalogs, and marketing materials. If you have visited their websites or browsed their publications, you have likely encountered my work.

In addition to editorial and promotional assignments, I bring deep expertise in photographic reproduction and apply the same precision to highly technical projects, including interior photography, documentation, and condition reporting.

Below is a curated selection of “Museum Experiences” assignments from recent years.

Some of the exhibition documentation work can be found in the “Interiors & Architecture” section of this site.
