Preview: Andrew Bird
March 15, 2009 – Here’s one shot from Andrew Bird’s sold out show at the Pageant last night. As always, Bird put on a fantastic show, but his annual performance always has special meaning for me as a photographer.

You want full resolution, high ISO files from the Canon 5D Mark II? You got it.
Basia Bulat @ Terminal 5 — 2008.05.20
In a set that ranged between soulful pop and lilting, vibrato-tinged folk, Ontario’s Basia Bulat ripped though a spirited and undeniably charming performance opening for Devotchka at Terminal 5 in NYC.
White Rabbits @ the Duckroom — 2008.01.21
Following a ferocious set by White Denim, for a moment the Duckroom seems to lapse into restlessness; it’s approaching 10pm on a Monday night, the venue is wrapped in a damp chill, and only the first of three bands has played. However, without fanfare, two drum kits are being assembled on stage, and the crowd [...]
Galactic w/ Chali 2na @ the Pageant — 2008.02.17
There’s a thick haze inside the Pageant, and a little use of the olfactory senses immediately makes it clear that it’s not just the water hazers at work in the venue. In a sprawling two-hour set, New Orleans-based funk group Galactic brought grooving, feel good performance with special guest Chali 2na of Jurassic 5 fame.
Le-Hiboo.com features the D3, my work

The Dresden Dolls @ the Pageant — 2008.01.06
After a quick photo shoot with the Dresden Dolls prior to their show, it was time to come in for the real deal: the live performance. In their singular brand of “Brechtian punk cabaret,” the Dolls rocked the house in a raucous set that affirmed the duo’s status as one of the best live shows [...]
Impressions on the Nikon D3: High ISO Performance
Just from its specs, the D3 seems like an ideal tool for concert photography, where light is so often at a premium. In August, I posted an article highlighting my picks for the camera’s top features for low-light work, as well as other notable advancements. Naturally, the question is, does the camera live up to [...]
Motion City Soundtrack @ the Pageant — 2007.12.11
Motion City Sountrack brought their explosive brand of pop punk to the Pageant in an infectiously energetic and upbeat set that saw a dynamic mix of lights to compliment the band’s dynamic stage presence.
