Who is this guy?
Funny you ask.
I am a dude who takes pics at concerts, events, jumpies ( parties) on the street and sometimes in studios.
I started taking pics at a tender age of 29ish. It all started at a Common show at SOBs in NYC during the Electric Circus days. Which in my opinion is THE best LP ( that’s album for you kids) ever!
So yeah man, I had a lil Rite-Aide disposable camera. took some dope pics. Here is one. I can’t find the others I have scanned. I should just wait to put up a better one, but fuck it, it’s not like this one is not fresh. I just have betters ones!
Anyways…this great concert inspired me to become the Mel D. Cole that most of you are here to read about.
I took me about 4 more years to buckle down and get a real camera. I had a Fuji 4 MP joint. I worked with that for a year. Then I got a Canon Rebel. Now I own a 40 and a 50.
Lets change gears a bit. My fav photogs are
Ricky Powell:
Mike B
Craig Weatherby
Tone
Terry Richardson
Kareem Black
D-Nice
Ian Reid
Arab Parrot
Yeah Love those dudes plus others but my mind is not working right now to add them.
So rates and all the shit….
Contact me: contact@villageslum.com and we can talk.
But just know what you are getting yourself into 1st.
I am not some slack rocking, tie wearing, boring ass photog dude.
I am a beer drinking, moving and shaking, fun having, getting the shot no matter what while sweating dumb hard in the summer or winter, tattoo having, woman loving, hard working pic taking photog.
To make a long story short: I give a fuck while not giving a flying fuck.
I am just me.
And I live, LIVE!
