JJ Grey and Mofro at GFL with the Marcus King Band by Huka Entertainment and 98.3 The Penguin

"Impassioned singing, riff-based Southern rock, cold-blooded swamp funk and sly Memphis soul." --The New York Times Over the course of six albums and a decade of touring, JJ Grey's grimy blend of front porch soul and down-home storytelling has taken him around the world and back again. Beating the streets on nearly every continent, he and his band Mofro have sewn a continuous thread of laying-it-on-the-line shows that move folks to dance and at times to tears. Captures from an incredible sold-out show at Greenfield Lake!

Family Reunion 2016

The family is a haven in a heartless world. ~ Christopher Lasch This past week I have the privilege of having family from California and Texas visit my beach home for a little reunion.

Island Life : Escape to Paradise St. John, USVI

Its a US Territory where 60% of its land area is a national park and protected from building. Rockefeller himself fell in love with this island and donated his holdings as long as the island remain protected. How can you not love this story? There are maybe a couple hotels on the island but the way to visit is to rent a villa and live true island style.[...]

Engagement Magic : Carolina Beach, North Carolina

I'm a lifestyle and landscape photographer so I enjoy finding harmony between beautiful locations and the human element.

I've since shot their maternity photos and will be capturing their new little girl Charleigh's baby photos. It is a magical thing to capture the progress of life. I[...]

Return to Mars : Antelope Canyon near Page, Arizona

In the fall of 2015 I made a photographer trek out to Arizona/Utah. After a long summer of booming business on the coast of Carolina I needed to refresh my mind and soul. I had long heard of the spectacular views of the West but it had been years since I had made a trip. Amongst other stops one that stood out for obvious reasons was Antelope Canyon outside Page, Arizona. The canyon is a slot canyon formed by rushing waters during rainy season. You get to the check-in and see only dessert all around, then as you walk behind[...]
