one of my favs from the film archives

…when the driver turned left from 6th, there it was, stories high, my photo of Wynton Marsalis for the New Jazz at Lincoln Center…I’ve got the trees in my backyard so its hard for them to tell a lie to me….

…did I tell you that the talent of smoke and mirrors publicist called me for a re-shoot???

 …raw untouched photo…from yesterday’s shoot for Nervous Records Rony Seikaly event…I wont stop

…so my lovelies of the new world of social media, reality TV, all that new beautiful stuff…I’m side stepping the 15 minutes in favor of the marathon. I’ve come a long way but there is so much more to learn, so much more growth. I’m not done yet…

….No, I KNOW my experience counts for something. As a creative I understand how often people don’t get it. Publicist in particular put more stock into popularity than substance. It’s OK. I get that. That’s their job, I’ve got mine…

…the publicist described my talent as smoke and mirrors…I didn’t realize twitter followers were more real than 20 years plus experience going back to film…didn’t know that things that took years to learn ( which have been reduced to moments by digital photography ) are less important than how many followers I have on twitter…

When I shot this photo back in the day I called it future. I didn’t know then that a publicist would have one of their talents shot by another photog rather than me because he had a large twitter following….to be contiued

shot on 4x5 film, 2000 NYC …shot 1 of several

…mock up for card in 2002…
