Gantry Plaza State Park, Long Island City, New York.

Went out with my meet up group and learned alot from some of the more seasoned photographers. 

2011 - Hunter Marie Celebrates her Holy Communion

I been hired to do her sisters communion this weekend.

I hope to make the photographs just as memorable, or better.

Earth Day for Tyler

Adding to my campaign for father of the year, I scheduled a play date for my son to play with other babies on Earth Day. Thanks to MeetUp.com I found a group of One Year old babies whose parents organize to help build social skills and make long lasting memories. 

The organizer brought soil, seeds, containers, paint and a spinner for the babies to further build their sensory skills. My son had never really played with dirt or paint before during his first year on earth and it really opened up my eyes. 

Seeing my boy interact with the other babies and activities at hand really centered my focus and creative passion. I cant explain it, its one of those moments that as a parent you commit to making their life that much better.

Earth Day was a hit & I hope to contribute with my son to the preservation of this planet. 

Meet Lexy, she is a very kind, energetic, sweet natured dog.

She couldnt be in a better home right now.

Spider Man was in NYC earlier this year.

My final piece for the Cormega @ Knitting Factory

At first the place was dead, but it quickly filled up once Dj Skizz spun a few records.. Cormega brought out some local rap ambassadors to show the crowd how its done. Baby Pun (RIP Big Pun) showed that the apple doesnt fall far from the tree. Nature was there too. 

Part 2 of Cormega @ Knitting Factory in Brooklyn NYC. 

He changed his outfit multiple times, he brought his father out on stage, kept it real hip hop.

On March 22, 2013, Cormega performed @ the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn & while I was one of the first to arrive early, I picked out my spot and snapped a few shots of the opening acts. Lrg Pro was in the crowd. Two men spit their verses and let the crowd know what they rep.

Some experimenting with shadows in a dark club while waiting for Cormega to perform..

Baby photoshoots are the best. 

Props, they help.

This is baby JJ @ 2 months old. I hope one day, while he searches on Google, he finds this.

Part 3 of the NYC Parks Winter Jams

Red Bull was a huge part of this event and even though they tried their best, real snowboarders were on the slopes of NH, VT or CO.. not Central Park

Some funny fails.

Part 2 of the NYC Parks Winter Jam.. 

another huge aspect of this event was the dogs and their fashion. Dogs, we all love the dogs.

Young man by the name of Tommy told me he was very hesitant to try.. he had never tried snowboarding before.

Folks quickly began to ski and take pictures of their children, it was a wonderful event for the whole family

The Mountain Creek staff quickly began teaching the basics of how to go down a hill

And even the media, NY1, got involved. Tommy was selected for the interview.

I like events like this, it gives people a chance to do something they normally wouldnt have access to doing. “Thank you NYC PARKS DEPT I had a great time” - Tommy.
