Two from my book Dinner With Igor where I photographed everyone I ate with with a point and shoot 35mm camera for six straight years. I still continue the habit, but I am not as compulsive about it.
I took a photo of Tyler Creator after his hat fell into the photo pit and I gave it back to him. There's actually a much longer story to why I was the only photographer there, which I need to tell one day on my AlfaFrens.
Crack/cocaine
Punk rock was a better education than art school. I designed my friend’s band logo using this bumper sticker & a Xerox. I photocopied it and used whiteout to turn the D into an O. I used the P for the D, glued them down and photocopied it again. I didn’t do a great job kerning the T but I was 17, let me live.
I took a photo of Grahamland.
Hubert Graham is a fiberglass artist in Columbus, NC who I met a little over a year ago when on a road trip to visit my girlfriend's dad. Little did I know at the time that a few months later I would be living only 30 minutes from his place.

Over on my AlfaFrens I have been sharing NSFW photos/stories from my nude instant film book Instaxxx. https://www.alfafrens.com/channel/0xC85ABcEc6AE12Bb32CC9e1131682352fD9996E94
A view from the train.
I have lead a really surreal life and my AlfaFrens is all about documenting my weird time on this planet. Today I tell the story about how I ended up sitting in a chair on stage during the 2021 NFL Draft.

I’ve been getting negatives scanned for way too long.
Gave some Alfa in my AlfaFrens today, but that Alfa is about some archival project I am working on that is purely physical media and will not interest 99% of people, but it does have something to do with a hot dog man so there is that. https://www.alfafrens.com/channel/0xC85ABcEc6AE12Bb32CC9e1131682352fD9996E94
I quit doing channel streaks because it fucks with my OCD but I wonder what my overall Farcaster streak looks like.
Spent some time today turning my photos into cursed videos using Sora. They won't let me upload photos of people so might as well make this stray cat I met befriend a tiny pig.
I took a photo of professional eater Eric "Badlands" Booker aka Badlands Chugs with my friend Irina who is slightly smaller than him. I feel like this a meme template waiting to happen..
When I was a kid I used to go to this fruit stand outside of Lewes, DE every summer, and now every summer I document it's eventual collapse.
Welcome to AlfaFrens v2. I set my channel up again and kept it at the lowest price possible. I hope a few of my subscribers will return for my insane stories and photos! https://www.alfafrens.com/channel/0xC85ABcEc6AE12Bb32CC9e1131682352fD9996E94
When I was 18 my girlfriend gifted me a polaroid camera so I could take nude photos of her (we didn't have digital cameras yet) and over the last 25 years I have photographed hundreds of models nude on instant film and even published a book of those photos a few years ago. Today on my AlfaFrens I shared some photos and some stories from the book. link.alfafrens.com/channel/0x8e3e8a63b9ac670e80e069b42336a968e7ef3cf8
I took a photo of Natasha Lyonne & Mamoudou Athie on the set of Oh Jerome, No. It was a short comedic mini series that a friend of mine directed on FXX. Very worth checking out. Athie is such a good dude and an even better actor.
Ps. Those are professional actor pigeons.

I just posted the photo on the left in /itookaphoto but I realized that on that same trip to LA I had run into the band Ho99o9 and my friends Nate and Eddy, also while driving. And what's extra weird is that Eddy is friends with Eaddy from Ho99o9 what are the chances?

Amusement parks with friends.

Today on my AlfaFrens I discuss my relationship with one of my favorite models, and favorite humans. Yes, it's NSFW, let me live. link.alfafrens.com/channel/0x8e3e8a63b9ac670e80e069b42336a968e7ef3cf8
Just needed you guys to know that someone photoshopped a santa hat on my all time favorite photo of a tiny pig.
Teenage football players circa 1998.
I got injured the first or second day of Art Monk's football camp and just took photos instead of practicing.

I took a photo of Spike Lee while When Doves Cry was playing at the block party memorial he held the night Prince died. It was such a special moment to be part of.
My biggest strength as a photographer has been being in the right place at the right time and I tell those stories daily over on my AlfaFrens. Today I shared a lot more photos from the night that Prince died, with the story of how I ended up front row at his block party, and where I went from there...
