Published work for March 28 - April 1 2016

Last week at RedEye I had a nice variety of stories to shoot for that included a fund raising effort to reunite a security guard with his family, an interview with the stars of ‘Everybody Wants Some!!’, a sushi bowl, & Instagram fashion stars at the Macy’s flower show.

Retouching and coloring of a vintage wedding photo

My friend Heather asked me to retouch and color a photo of her grand parents on their wedding day. Its sort of fun to share the process it goes through so I made a video. Enjoy!


Batman Vs. Superman shoot & published work for 3/21-25

Another busy week at RedEye in Chicago. I shot 4 covers this week & a spread on c2e2. Today there was a great spread of Superman Vs. Batman content for which I shot a cover with Superman & Batman action figures having it out. Designer Sara Amato did a great job designing the cover and lending art direction on this one. To accomplish the image I held a smoke machine and threw foam pieces and sand while Sara hit the shutter for me. The strings holding up superman were photoshopped out while his laser eyes were photoshopped in. If my smoke machine hadn’t set off the Tribune Tower’s smoke detector I would have done the laser eyes in camera as well… cant win em all.

The wonderful, quirky Bric-a-Brac Records in Logan Square was nice enough to let me photograph musician Cullen Omori in their spot for a RedEye feature on him penned by Josh Terry that is out today. Check it here: http://trib.in/1R5980B

RedEye Covers from 2015

My fifth year at Chicago’s RedEye was a creatively productive but tumultuous one. I wanted to share a gallery of a few of my favorite print covers and spreads I was a part of over 2015 as a photographer or illustrator.

I’m really proud of all the great reporters and designers I work with over at RedEyeChicago.com . We are a really small, but tight knit team. They’ve given a lot of trust and I’m thankful for that.

Looking forward to what 2016 will bring. 

Happy Holidays folks!
