Tuesday, August 9th, 2011Ebony Hillbillies – Live at the Gantries 2011
Friday, August 5th, 2011The Ebony Hillbillies came on July 25th with a lot of energy and made everybody dance. This was one of my favorite concerts, a lot of laughs, dance and excellent rhythm.
This is one of my favorite story images. Could you tell me what is your favorite part of this story?
I really enjoyed photographing this event.

It’s good to be back! Live at the Gantries 2011 in Long Island City
Wednesday, July 13th, 2011Yesterday was the first show of the series Live at the Gantries and it started with nice hot Latin music from Latin Jazz Coalition.
You guys know my main work is photographing kids but I’m always shooting events for Queens Council on the Arts (QCA) and Live at the Gantries is a very special event for me since it was my first official gig three years ago (in 2008) when I started shooting as a professional photographer. It’s fun to remember my first concerts [link] =) And even more pleasant to see my former clients again =)
… And before I start to get emotional I’m just going to show you my peaks from yesterday’s performance =)
Of course kids always steal the show. I love to see them dancing.
…and running…
…and breakdancing too!..
Well sort of.
I can’t resist cute dogs!
Hope to see you guys next Tuesday for another concert at Live at the Gantries!
