play with love

Sometimes you just need a break from the stresses of work, family and even social life. WithLoveDC saw the need, and began sponsoring Recess for Grownups at Dupont Circle. I was able to capture some of the fun last Wednesday. #PlayWithLove

I love photographing children in a natural environment where I can capture them just being children (more on that coming soon). And when my subject is a beautiful 2-year-old with amazing parents and a few extended family members to add some spice… and when the scheduled session is greeted by a spectacular, golden morning… this is a photographer’s playpen (at least for those of us who have fun with photographing kids).  Last month I had exactly this good fortune when I photographed Sarah.

At times a story is best told not by the players on the stage, but by a face or two in the crowd.

Hip-hop (but definitely not Kanye despite contrary photo evidence) meets rock (but they are not Pink Floyd) to take a trip with Salvador Dalí—that barely begins to describe Navi + Picnibus. Click below to see the full set of images from their energetic Black Cat set, while listening to the authorized bootleg (say what) of the show (scroll down to fire it up).

Newt Junior released its new EP, Future Proof, and introduced an eager Black Cat crowd to its brew of jazz improvisation with the rock energy, soul grooves, and the straight-on drive of funk. Click below to view the full set of images.

A hip-hop edge awash with smooth soulful grooves blended with elegant jazz harmonics. Featuring Nature Boi on mic and turntables and supported by Joey Harman on drums, Brain Rapp brought his right-meets-left-brain hip hop to the Black Cat. I went to photograph other bands, but Brain Rapp definitely earned my attention and my cameras focus. Click below for the full set of images.
