Working with Carmen was a lot of fun the first time around, so we did another shoot. Her band Bodega Girls often uses US flags as backdrops on stage – so, inspired by Craig McDean’s military shot of Kate Moss, I setup this shot. We used poster paint to create the lines, and had to act fast before it dried up.

Fun show at the Middlesex with the awesome Bodega Girls. These guys kick arse for sure. Their antics at SXSW caused a bit of a stir, and that’s how we do shit in Boston.

BBQ, Google Hackathon, Barbarian Group party at the Mohawk and tattoos.

Jasmine Solano played some good tunes at last night’s show.

Its always good to see someone representing from the UK. Goldie played some absolute bangers. Was also pleasantly surprised that the bouncer was cool with me and my camera getting in the way.

Great show last night from my friends Eksi Ekso. Their first gig since 2009, they kicked arse. I shot a lot of pictures using flash, and I now realise this to be a mistake. The flash just killed all the ambient light. This is a shot I managed to get with my 17-70mm f2.8 lens without the flash, luckily it came out fairly sharp.
