Print Store Updates for 2020 (COVID-19 Edition)

So…..how’s everyone doing?? Things are a bit….weird….at the moment.

We’re seemingly living in a Twilight Zone x Black Mirror crossover episode which isn’t ending anytime soon. As you’re clearly aware, the worldwide pandemic that is COVID-19, aka the Coronavirus, has shuttered and altered our entire way of life from top to bottom. Countless industries have shut down with no end date in sight. My road trip next month has been cancelled, and every shoot I had scheduled for March & April have been postponed. I have no idea what the future holds in store for me or for us.

So in the meantime I am focusing efforts on expanding my offerings in my print store.

I currently have three galleries to choose from: Live Music, Travel Landscapes, & Luxury Handbags. I hopefully will be adding more as this goes on and I dive deep into my old hard drives.

I normally like to print my work myself, but that is not possible at the moment, so I have sourced that out to Jeffery Stockbridge, who is a far superior printer than I any day of the week and twice on Sundays. Jeff has assured me that they are following all safety recommendations and wear clean gloves when handling all the prints. I will be putting in orders with him every 2-3 months, or more if demand picks up, so have everything printed at once. As soon as they are ready I shall be personally picking them up and sealing them in airtight packaging for transport. If you are within 50 miles of Philadelphia, barring any future travel restrictions, I will gladly deliver them directly to your front step. If you are further away, we will chat about the best means to ship it to you. I am also happy to print & store orders for future pick up when the crisis abates.

(You may know his name from his acclaimed project Kensington Blues, which documents the opiod crisis at the heart of the worst hit neighborhood in one of the worst hit cities in the nation. I was lucky enough to see the early early work from this project when Jeff gave a presentation at our mutual alma mater, Drexel University)

So here are the galleries. Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns or if you would like to order a custom print from an image not listed. If you/your band is featured in the photograph, reach out to me for an extra discount code just for you.
