Here at That Million Dollar Bash, we publish in-depth, collaborative, intimate visual stories with bands and musicians roughly once a month.

I’m a musician myself and have been photographing music professionally for over 20 years.

In the 2010’s I self-produced, photographed and wrote the portrait/interview series ‘Contact’ and documentary photo-essay series ‘On The Road’ with with Mother Jones. On assignment with the New York Times, I shot Culture assignments, visually complimenting the writing of heavyweights like Jon Pareles, Ben Ratliff, Nate Chinen, Jon Caramanica and Giovanni Russonello. I have also had photo essays published along the lines of what I intend to continue doing with NPR Music, Rolling Stone and NYT’s Lens Blog .

Over the years, my most meaningful work has overwhelmingly come from initiated and self-funded projects. So the time has come to do this work outside of the media/music industry structure and do it together with you.

A FREE subscription will get you access to all main feature stories as I want to bring as much recognition as possible to the artists who collaborate with me. Your presence here helps me support them.

$6 / mo. or $60 / year makes you a Friend of a Photographer. As a photographer, I’m really excited to be able to offer a tangible, physical connection to the music via museum-quality prints. A paid subscription not only gets you special insider only posts about music and photography, but I’ll be offering special discounts on print offerings throughout the year.

$250 / year makes you a Very Important Print Collector. Included is a signed 11 x 17 museum-quality print annually along with full membership to the site. I’ll do my best to accomodate your image choice, either from my archive or from new work created over the course of this project. If you are interested in purchasing multiple prints, please contact me for special rates.

$1,500 / project makes you the ‘Director of Photography.’ This is quite unique and exciting. By sponsoring a full feature, we will collaborate on choosing an artist to feature. When the work has been made and published, I will print a custom portfolio of 4 signed 11x17 prints from the best of the project. Of course this comes with a full annual membership and a credit in the feature if you’d like one.
