Documentary Projects
Glass City
Glass City (2005-2025) is a 20-year study of the luxurification of Manhattan and its effect on the psyche of its inhabitants. The project explores the idea of what it means to be a creative neurogivergent survivor in a city of glass and capital—how ordinary people improvise meaning, dignity, and beauty in the shadows and reflections of a landscape built to pass them by.
Hype
What is REAL and what is FAKE? HYPE: 10 Blocks, 10 Years, 10 Sneakers (2013-2024) is an alternative history book tracing a path through SoHo and Canal Street, a neighborhood that became the physical manifestation of hype culture during the early social and influencer decade.
The walk takes us through the luxury capital of Downtown NYC, exploring the object of the sneaker, the luxury brand, the cast-iron SoHo factory building, and street style and fashion culture, to trace how hype and capital have reshaped the identity of the city, block by block.
All A Dream
Photographing the spirit of Brooklyn through its details.
All A Dream (2018-Current) is an ongoing quiet project of a Manhattanite exploring his new home of Brooklyn, seeking to integrate himself and understand his surroundings through the camera.
Print Collection
“Momentary disorientation, intimate exposure, physical contact with strangers, pratfalls, public humiliations—conditions that in other circumstances might have been excruciating—become richly entertaining.”
– John Kasson
This portfolio consists of a selection of highlights of New York street photography prints. The aim here is to show a modern glimpse into the people and places of New York – the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly.
While the photographs are from all over New York, many were taken in SoHo, the East Village, the Lower East Side, 5th Avenue, Chinatown, and the subway system. All images are candid, unstaged, and have not been altered.
Street photography is the art of capturing natural, unplanned moments that show a glimpse behind the curtain, and in this case, the aim is to show what New York is like and what it feels like on and under the surface – the people, the stress, the grind, the longing, the ups, the downs, the loneliness, and the camaraderie, amongst other things.

Most are available as black and white street photography prints or as color editions, available as large-scale New York street photography prints and framed New York City prints on request. If you’re unsure about sizing or framing, please send me an email.
Archival Photographic Prints
After studying photography and printing at the International Center for Photography in the early ’00s, I’ve been obsessively photographing New York City ever since. And as a part-time historian and NYC guide, I can’t imagine there are many who have walked the city more in that timeframe.
My archive consists of both the unique, daily life in the city, as well as the classic and popular views, including the skyscrapers, skyline, Central Park, and architectural marvels, in all seasons. I work with major firms, art buyers, interior designers, and architects. I love the art of printing, getting to create, experience, and then share a little treasure.
All prints are made with museum-quality archival photography paper, are signed, and come with a certificate of authenticity. Prints are offered in a variety of sizes, I can handle or advise on framing, and I offer installation planning and services. Installing the finished products on walls is one of the most satisfying parts of the job.
In my spare time, I am also a documentary and street photographer, and I have captured a large variety of happenings around the city. I can also send customized selections of work for review based on your interests and needs.
Glass City
The Glass City portfolio and project, which is the inspiration for my bi-monthly photography column, is about growing up as an ADHD artist in a massively changing luxury city.
From the glass and steel architecture, marble lobbies, old tenements, exhausted artists, grinding, unforgiving, soulful and soulcrushing, ever-changing and always unrelenting, this portfolio frames the modern city of glass.
Hype
Hype is a decade long photography and history book covering a 10-block stretch of New York city, through SoHo and Tribeca, during the influencer decade.
From the real to the fake, from the luxury, to the influencer, to the artist, through Greene Street’s opulent stores to Canal Streets chaotic vibe, to the old factories and new galleries of Cortlandt Alley, the neighborhood frames the influencer history in a cast-iron shell, while wearing fancy sneakers.
You’ll find them as new york street photography prints—a soho street photography print here, a chinatown nyc photo print there—available as color new york city prints or black and white street photography prints, including framed new york city prints and larger statements for homes, studios, and hospitality spaces.
Downtown
I do a majority of my NYC street photography workshops in downtown new york, as its where I most enjoy the city, with my favorite haunts and views.
From the cast iron to carved stone tenement buildings, from the old businesses to the new flashy trends, Downtown New York street photography prints have a little of everything.
Here you’ll see the anchor neighborhoods in full force—SoHo street photography prints, Chinatown nyc photo prints, Lower East Side photo prints, West and East Village photo prints, Washington Square Park photo print—all woven into this larger collection of nyc street photography prints.
Midtown
While Downtown shifts and changes constantly, Midtown has a consistent vibe to it, and I always try to think about my work while respecting the history of the New York street photography genre through the heart of this area. From Bill Cunningham to Lee Friedlander, to Garry Winogrand, all photography the emotions, the fashions, the trends, the suits, the alternatives, the advertisements, and details.
Whether it’s 5th Avenue photo prints, the Diamond District, Central Park, Times Square photo prints, Broadway, or Grand Central Terminal prints, these areas keep on giving the more time you spend photographing them; an endless supply of inspiration.
Uptown
I grew up on the Upper West, and I find uptown to be a strange yet fascinating place, from the people, to the park, to the fashion and architecture.
Uptown has both quieter and flashier areas of the city, depending on where you explore, as well as the luck of the walk.
These uptown New York street photography prints capture my home and the crazy change and transformations it has undergone over the last few decades.
Brooklyn, All A Dream
While I typically explore Manhattan with a small and unobtrusive street photography camera (usually the Fuji X100), in Brooklyn, my new home, I like to explore the quieter corners of the borough with a large medium format camera.
Here I like to capture the feeling, the colors, the details, more street portraits with some candid views. The look of my Brooklyn street photography tends to be starkly different than my Manhattan work, both in look and feel.
Black & White
I love to contrast modern scenes with black and white, as I always feel like these photos are the ones which will age the best.
I’m always thinking about what looks so normal today that will feel strange in 20 years. And the photos in this collection often attempt to deal with these issues, yet still in a classic way that will work as a print and a wall.
These black and white street photography prints bring old techniques to frame these modern views, and the results are spectacular, and sometimes disorienting, when seen on beautiful paper.
The history of New York and black and white street photography are intimately intertwined, and this is the language that this photography gallery speaks.
Night & Storms
In high school, I was always enamored with graffiti artist friends who scaled and explored the city at night, and I took that to my photography. The camera was an excuse to get lost in the city at night.
Everything looks beautifu in New York at night, from the lights to your daydreams. Here you’ll find both the classic night street photography prints, and more unique work as I hop from light source to light source with a small camera.
