Jazz Age | Governors Island | August 2013

 

 I was lucky enough to attend the Jazz Age Lawn Party on Governors Island not once but twice last year. Photos from the June 2013 Jazz Age Lawn Party can be found here, if you'd like to see.

Lower East Side - New York City Photographer

Last year I had the opportunity to tour several NYC public elementary schools. It was a fairly nerve-wracking experience. In order to alleviate some of the anxiety, I brought my K1000 with me and explored the areas surrounding the schools. First up, the Lower East Side.

Jazz Age Lawn Party | Governors Island | June 2013

We've gone to the Jazz Age Lawn Party every year since 2009. Hosted on Governors Island by Michael Arenella and his Dreamland Orchestra, it's grown from a few diehards to a huge, huge soiree. It's really a blast. You might spy the amazing New York Times fashion photographer Bill Cunningham and the ever-beautiful artist and writer Beatrix Ost ("Everybody is beautiful!").  All shot on an old Pentax K1000 and lomo film.
