  • Girl hanging upside-down at the Bud Brothers Monday Social club at the Louis XIV restaurant. The Monday Social was one of the key clubs in Hollywood for twenty years, and the first five years at Louis' were positively magical at times.

  • This is one of my favorite pieces.  It really captures the energy of the dance transforming one from within.  More than a few people have commented to me that they’ve seen religious connotations in this image, and although I’m pleased that they’re making such observations, it wasn’t what I originally intended when I made the photograph.  It truly was an example of what I used to call “letting the picture paint itself”.  In other words, I felt like I was merely the conduit for the image, which would create itself while the camera’s shutter was open.  At the time, I often felt that I had relatively little control over what would actually end up on the film—not surprising when you consider that the lights, the subjects, and even the camera were often all moving simultaneously—and to be truthful, I really didn’t want to have that control much of the time.  I liked the idea of being the messenger for the image, and not its creator…it sort of felt like I was plugged in to something larger, more ephemeral and yet more powerful, which was using me to manifest parts of itself.

  • DJ Frankie Bones performing live on New Years Eve 1999 at the "Together As One" rave at the L.A. Sports Arena. Despite some great sets by Carl Cox, Donald Glaude, DJ Dan and Jesse Saunders, Frankie stole the show, IMHO.

  • Publicity shot for DJ Irene's album "Live In Ibiza". This wasn't actually shot in Ibiza--instead, we did this clandestinely in one of Hollywood's swankiest hotels. We actually almost got booted out of there twice because of the "party" they thought we were holding. If only they knew the truth!
