October 2017, Arizona

What a magical place Sedona is. The energy there is refreshing. Makes you stop for a minute and just take in the insane surroundings. Eventually will do a Sedona travel guide of some sort, this is a little place holder until I have the time.

Jon Batiste x Andra Day for Cartier on Governor’s Island

The two performed “Empire State of Mind” in a glass ballroom built specifically for the event. To the left was a clear view of the Statue of Liberty, to the right was the glowing lights of downtown NYC.

I’ve neglected this blog again, so I’m going to be posting some photos from the past five months. Mostly so I can keep track of time.. The fact that it’s basically March baffles me. Here some snaps from Westlight - The best view of Manhattan from Brooklyn. Drinks are pricey but it’s worth when you can take in a sunset like this. I know it well, that warm day in September. Everyone is back to the grind but the weather tricks you into feeling like its June.

Jon Batiste x Bonobos. We took a piano to the streets of NYC. This was a fun shoot.

As a kid we used to go to Montauk every summer, salty from the ocean and splinters in our feet from the old motel on the beach. It was a simple time, we were there for the ocean and company of each other. Montauk has changed over the years, now fully developed into a “scene” where New York City dwellers visit every weekend in the summer. The old motels are now beach clubs, the classic breakfast spots are now fancy bars. My parents wanted to find a new place to go that hadn't been touched by the fads. LBI was the spot. We rode bikes everywhere, frequented the local dive bars and spent the days in the sand. It was the perfect escape from reality.

I always forget to update this thing. Not even sure who reads this, but I love to have a place to look back on my travels.

Back in June we went to Aspen for Jazz Aspen Snowmass Festival and Aspen Ideas Festival. One of the most beautiful towns I’ve seen. The air is crisp, the colors are vibrant and the mountains are everywhere you look.
