I have just added a published work section of this blog which I hope will keep growing. To see the images please follow the link at the top of the page
It includes my work on book covers, album covers, and press articles.
My photograph featured Steve Conte of New York Dolls Twitter Home Page
My photograph featured on the Penguin Modern Classic Cover
All the live photographs used were my shots from the New York Dolls reunion gig at London Royal Festival Hall in 2004
My exhibition is over it was fun while it lasted.
It took a lot of hard work and I am very appreciative for the help I received from Kevin Boyd for sorting out everything in the gallery, my wife Jill for all her help, Mansfield Hioliday who are awesome and were kind enough to play on the night, and to all the people that attended.
This was my second exhibition and I feel happy with everything and grateful to all the people that supported the exhibition.
It was fun to have a mixed night with a live band and photography on the opening night – I hope that there will be more such events in the future. Square Yard Exhibition Press Release
I was pleased to see my photographs of a local band to Detroit Social Club getting some publicity in the USA on a site that attracts over 45,000 unique visitors per month.
Hopefully they will become even bigger than Newcastle Brown Ale in the USA.
2010 looks like being a big year for Detroit Social Club.
