Billboard - Kobalt Cover

I shot Willard Ahdritz, the CEO of Kobalt Music Publishing for the cover of this week’s Billboard Magazine. My first for them and I’m excited with the results. Always cool to work with talented designers, and I love what they did with the illustrations and design on this.

Tahereh Mafi for Harper Collins

A few months back I worked with the super talented author Tahereh Mafi. We spent the day in Central Park roaming around and shooting in a variety of locations. Tahereh is so cool and the entire day was a lot of fun. Even started raining a bit, but she was a good sport about it. Her latest book, ‘Shatter Me’ has gained critical acclaim and is being adapted into a film. For any of you Twilight fans - you’ll love this. Pick up your copy here. Many thanks to Alison, Tara, Tricia, and the rest of the crew for the great work.

Institutional Investor - Blackrock Cover

Before 2011 ended I got the call from Sarah and Nathan at Institutional Investor to shoot the Dec/Jan cover and feature. I was psyched that they wanted it to be shot in B+W. And I really love what they did in post with the design and type treatment. Great way to start the year off!

My friend Alaric Campbell is involved with a great non-profit called Sybarite Productions. They help talented kids find ways to make a living through performing at all types of events ranging from dance, art exhibits, etc. Please go to their site to read more.

Big thanks to Alaric and also the founder  Dinna Alexanyan. You can see the rest of the images here.

The Oldest Living WWII Dentist

Since it’s Veterans Day I figured this would be a good time to post some images from my shoot with 93 year old Dr. John Siegal. He was in the Navy during WWII, and also an All Pro wide receiver for the Chicago Bears. Back then pro athletes didn’t make millions of dollars, so he had to have a ‘real job’ too - which was that of a dentist. Pretty amazing man.

Restoration Farm for Edible East End

For the Fall Issue of Edible East End I shot a story on the organic Restoration Farm in Old Bethpage, LI. Daniel Holmes(the main portrait below) runs it with his wife Caroline. It was really great to hang out and spend a day documenting the goings on at the farm. I’m embarrassed to say how many pictures I took of that rooster. I swear she(or he?) was posing for me! Big thanks to everyone involved for their time and hospitality.

Matt’s Pantry App

mp_blog01

I’m excited to announce that Matt’s Pantry App is now available for download on iTunes. Get it HERE. It’s a cookbook app for ipad(and soon available for iphone) that I shot over the summer with my good friend and world class chef Matt Shields. The main concept is to ‘waste less’ when you cook. So the App is designed to help you shop once, and then be able to cook dinners throughout the week making sure you use all the ingredients you bought. For more info please check out the Matt’s Pantry site.

mp_blog02

One of the features that I really like, is that we did Step-by-Step photos for every recipe. I know in a lot of cookbooks there’s just a beautiful photo of the finished dish, and I always end up wondering ‘how come mine doesn’t look like that?’. Well, not any more. I can’t even screw these up.

mp_blog05

We set out to make the most comprehensive and beautiful cookbook App out there and we did it. There’s every feature you can imagine on this. E-mail yourself shopping lists, wine and beer pairings, etc. And if you come across an ingredient that you’ve never heard of and don’t know what it looks like, just put your finger over that highlighted ingredient and a picture will appear of it! That’s right, we photographed every single ingredient in each recipe.

I’d like to give a huge thanks to everyone involved. Especially Tricia and Brett at MergeLeft Inc. for producing the project. And Tricia for doing a great job with all the styling as well. Thanks for the support and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Jared Landaw for AR Magazine

Jared Landaw is the COO of Barington Capital Group and also the co-founder of the Gridiron Games, which are an annual event for kids involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters of NYC. We shot at MetLife Stadium and it was cool to get down on the field for a couple set-ups. Jared’s a really great guy, and after the shoot he hit me deep for a touchdown.
