Public Hanging

The above photos are in a show opening today at the Mills Building, 220 Montgomery St in San Francisco’s Financial District. The show runs through the summer, so if you’re in SF, stop by and check out the show. Hopefully the traders and wheeler-dealers will appreciate the work. I want to both thank and strongly [...]

Ghetto Tech

Vacation in Detroit? Yes please. I’m not up to the task of describing the insane music on display at the Movement Festival last weekend, so hopefully these photos and this slideshow will do. (Turn it up.) Update: Kelly was able to effectively describe the weekend. And she was faded all weekend. Go read. Bookmark on [...]

Bombing the Bay

Posted by matt on May 3, 2007. 7 comments.

Last weekend I shot the San Francisco Bay Bombers vs. Brooklyn Red Devils roller derby game for SFist. I went into this not knowing what to expect since the last time I heard anything about roller derby was probably watching it with Cohen Sr. about 25 years ago. I can say with all sincerity, roller [...]

Mid-Evening Cowboy

I shot the 2007 Grand National Rodeo for SFist. Yes, the Grand National Rodeo is at San Francisco’s own Cow Palace. While I’ve never seen so many cowboy hats or boots in one place, I can say for sure that it was fun. The bulk of the photos are on Flickr, and I made a [...]

Help Re-light the Photosuperstar

Dean walking through Heppenstall, 2004. Many of you know Dean either from the photos of his that I have posted here, or from Flickr or elsewhere. Some of you don’t know him at all. Last weekend, he was the victim of a smash and grab robbery, one that cost him every bit of camera gear [...]

Legacy Photo Show

Some of you know that Jamie and I lost our father last year. He was obviously a big influence on us, in every respect. To memorialize and celebrate his life, we’ve put together a gallery show of his photography and mine in Pittsburgh. It opens today and runs through January 7th. For more information on [...]

Heppenstall

Posted by matt on September 15, 2006. 2 comments.

Despite a stern, yet jaunty warning not to go back to my favorite place to shoot, I did manage a return visit to the Heppenstall complex in Pittsburgh last month. The photos are on Flickr and Top Shotta. But apropos of the time I got caught distorting Katrina damage in the 9th Ward, Jason wants [...]

On The Road

I’m on the road for most of August, mostly roaming around the states. I’ll still be writing, but my focus for this trip is much more on photography. If you want to play along at home, new photos will be appearing more or less daily at my new photoblog. Bookmark on DeliciousDigg this postShare on [...]

Bobby Digital

The switch from film to digital was a bit more difficult than I anticipated, but after a bit of schooling from Dean, I’m starting to get some results. My long neglected Flickr page has been updated and I’m back to shooting more often. A few from Tuesday: Bookmark on DeliciousDigg this postShare on Facebookshare via [...]
