My Photo Exhibition at the World Famous West 4th Court

May 15, 2015 in Basketball, Fine Art, Photography

I had the privilege of displaying some of my images at the world famous West 4th court, a.k.a. "The Cage", during NBA All-Star Weekend back in February. I believe this was the first time an exhibition like this took place on the hallowed grounds of New York City. I joined NY Sunshine, Adam Lister, Justin Leonard, Kevin Couliau, and Bobbito Garcia as the artists whose work was featured. Check out some of the images and my reflection on being a part of such a special exhibition.

2014: A Magnificent Year in Review (Part II)

January 08, 2015 in Lifestyle, Photography, Recap, Basketball

In any given year things tend to move so fast that I seldom have an opportunity to pause and digest the minute nor the incredible moments as they happen. While I am always cognizant of what's going on, it's only in hindsight that I really have an opportunity to fully appreciate the road I've been traveling. In this final part of my personal look back at 2014 I share a behind the lens look into the FIBA Basketball World Cup, my adventures with Nike and the Elite Youth Basketball League as well as its elite camps including that of LeBron James, my role in an upcoming documentary film coming to a theater near you in 2015, and more.

The turnout for the opening of my Respect The Shooter photography exhibition on Monday, December 1st at Camaradas was incredible. I was truly blown away by the support from the New York City basketball community, my friends, and family.

Respect The Shooter Photography Exhibit on December 1st

November 11, 2014 in Basketball, Fine Art, Photography

Whether on the court or from the periphery of the game, I have always been a shooter. Through my passion for both basketball and photography, I have traveled the world freezing action and capturing defining moments. On December 1, 2014 I will share some of the photographic shots I've created over the years. Please join me as I share a limited selection of my adventures.
