Thrilled to have the series, a collaboration with Washingtonian magazine, featured on the killer good blog, Jenren. Such amazing work on there.

DC Drag Queens for Washingtonian
I’m very proud of this feature on Washington drag queens for Washingtonian Magazine and I’m in love with the layout. I originally photographed some fabulous drag queens at a couple Academy of Washington events. Washingtonian asked me to photograph them as males as well. I ended up tracking down almost everyone I originally photographed and shooting them out of drag, some at clubs in Richmond, in their homes, and many right here in the exercise room of my building in Washington, DC. I definitely enjoyed Ali Eaves excellent text for the feature and I hope others did too.

Maryland Eastern Shore Crabbing Lifestyle Shoot
A couple of months ago I ventured to the Maryland Eastern Shore for a self-produced crabbing lifestyle shoot. The actor, Felipe Cabezas, was a super good sport because I accidentally got boots that were three sizes too small for him and he didn’t complain once. We were incredibly lucky to have access to a waterman who took us out on his boat, the Broad Creeker, and added authenticity by showing Felipe how to catch crabs. I brought home some of the Maryland blue crabs for our fitness trainer who said they were delicious but unusually feisty.

2011 Punkin Chunkin for Discovery Communications
My alarm went off at 4:00 a.m. on a brisk Delaware November morning. Breakfast wasn’t available at the hotel yet. I got in my car and made my way down the road in the pitch black dark, trying to follow the directions I found online.
“Is this definitely the right way?” I thought to myself. I wasn’t sure, so I looped back around a tried again. Finally in the distance I saw some lights and a whole bunch of trucks. I had arrived at the 2011 Punkin Chunkin.
It was fascinating to meet the cast of characters who make the annual trip from different parts of the country to a Delaware cornfield to see who can chunk a punkin the farthest. In the beginning I wasn’t clear why they did it, but after speaking with participants and seeing the energy and resources they invest in their catapults and air powered cannons, I get it. It was exciting for me to experience a newer American tradition that’s special to so many people.
