I photographed the band MUSE in 2006 but these portraits never made it into the edit and never seen or published.

Congratulations to Brandi, Tim and Phil for several Grammy nominations! This is a photo I did with Brandi in Los Angeles a while back. It’s a portrait of an artist strong and focused.

The forefather of indie-hop, Sage Francis. @sagefrancissfr It’s always a great/fun/wacky day of shooting with Sage. He’s a talent and a hurricane. These were created for Anti- @antirecords First photo is us just riffing on some ideas and is suitably strange enough for Sage. The second photo was for album artwork. We shot quite a bit up to this point and Sage needed a break. He took off for a bit, saying he’d return soon. I felt I needed to keep shooting when he returned (always push for more) and found this room with the tree in the distance. It’s winter and the sun is setting fast. Then clouds started rolling in! Where is Sage? At the last minute he returned and I was so desperate to just catch something that I started shooting while he was getting dressed and fixing his clothes. As it turned out, it appears as though he is dancing, and this played in perfectly with the mystique necessary for the cover of “Human the Death Dance”. The finished album packaging also bears the beautiful pen markings of my good friend @inkymole . . #ProvidenceRI #PaulWilliamFrancis #PaulFrancis #Anti- #AntiRecords #StrangeFamousRecords #EpitaphRecords #PortraitPhotographers #MusicianPortrait #PhotoLife #bts #CreativeHouse #Profoto #ProfotoUSA #HasselbladCulture #Hasselblad #PhotoGram #MonoTone #BWPhotooftheday #SepiaPhoto #AnthonySaintJames (at Providence, Rhode Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq0JzxGgnaY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dql5z7ao0hri

Singer, songwriter and guitarist, Jesse Sykes. She is sweet and kind and true. Both Jesse and her music are beautiful. I might even admit to a bit of a crush! She’s a Townes Van Zandt fan, so there ya go. . . . #JesseSykes #JesseSykesAndTheSweetHerafter #TheSweetHereafter #SingerSongwriter #Barsuk #FargoRecords #SeattleMusician #risd #PortraitPhotographers #MusicianPortrait #PhotoLife #bts #CreativeHouse #AnthonySaintJames (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqvET8aA7QP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gurmynbpqwla

Black Thought, the American rapper and lead MC of Philadelphia’s hip-hop group The Roots. . . Most people look at a photograph and judge it by the obvious but photographers look at an image and see all of the hard work behind the scenes - the pre-production, the flights, cases of gear, the dedicated assistants and talented crew. Not to mention the post production of lab runs or digital processing and edits. Great, and even good photographs require tenacity. Photographs like the one above require showing up early, having speed and technical skills to build sets on location and to simply sit around and wait for your subject to be ready and available. Getting the shot and having fun in the process is a craft. . . #BlackThought #TheRoots #TariqTrotter #PhillyHipHop #HipHopLegends #Gucci #DefJam #Okayplayer #PhotoLife #HasselbladCulture #ProfotoUSA #CreativeHouse #AnthonySaintJames (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqsXzKCgjwA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cywzurlcslvk

A little less weathered here but kudos to Bradley Cooper on a fine acting, screenplay and directing job with today’s release of “A Star Is Born”.
