July 15, 2018 – Suburban Fight Pro Wrestling put on a killer show with Darby Allin x Bad Boy Joey Janela, Tuna x Heather Monroe, and Brody King x Filthy Tom Lawlor. THEN, Negative Approach took the stage. It was the most fun I’d had in a long time. Cover image is actually by my […]
Fifteen years of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. Celebrating on Friday, July 13th, at the Globe Theater in Los Angeles with Threemendous V. Ah, it was such fun to hear about Frank & Sons not just because that’s where they had their first show but because much of my childhood was spent there. I went […]
some photos from Pro Wrestling Guerrilla’s Time is a Flat Circle at the Globe Theater in Los Angeles.
Went to Cali 11 WCK Muay Thai event in the hopes of photographing Charles Bissett but was thwarted. However, there were some good fights–all the best ones being in the women’s divisions. Local fights are always fun challenges to shoot with the low light, but it makes for some dramatic images. Thanks to Dustin Pagliughi for […]
We went to see Stardom USA, a Japanese women’s pro-wrestling event, touring the US for the first time, in Covina on a Friday night. We loved it so much that I asked to come photograph the Sunday night show in Baldwin Park. So. Much. Fun. Here’s the expanded photo gallery! I posted about 36 or […]
Last night, there was some fantastic action at the Staples Center in the Showtime Championship Boxing ring but I spent most of my time backstage, watching fighters as they prepared mentally for their impending battles. I also edited Tom Casino’s wonderfully visceral action shots and we put together a gallery for you at SHO Sports. […]
There’s nothing like seeing Converge live. I feel so alive. The fervor in the pit isn’t anger, it’s intense mutual love. A camaraderie among strangers, even onstage where I stood — guys in the opening bands air drummed along to the songs and stage dove along with the crowd. I haven’t shot live music since I don’t […]
Had the fantastic opportunity to shoot the first boxing event at the brand new Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY. Here’s a few of my favorite shots from that night but head to the full gallery on Sports.Sho.com for the full gallery including all of Tom Casino’s great action shots. Peter Quillin vs Hassan N’Dam stole […]
Nearly every time I find myself crying while looking at photos, I look down in the bottom corner and find James Nachtwey‘s name there. And I was so surprised when I was out shooting in Tokyo with Dan Herbertson when he asked me if I’d seen War Photographer, and I had not. I didn’t know […]
Sumo. Full of tradition, conflict, scandal. Even in these gorgeous images by Tomoki Momozono, I’m hearing the audio from the Freakonomics segment on sumo wrestling. It makes the images more beautiful, to me. Hypebeast says: Japanese photographer Tomoki Momozono, otherwise known as MOMO, began his career as a sports photographer in 2001. Following a couple of stints […]

We had the fortune of shooting in the camps of both Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito for AOL Fanhouse. We did these two videos previewing the lead-up to their fight November 13th. This is really our first foray into boxing and we hope you like it. I also took some lovely photos of Pacquiao and […]
Hello hello! We’ve been busy busy busy as usual but haven’t had time to make a lot of videos, which is a bummer. However, last week we had the opportunity to visit both Manny Pacquiao and Antonio Margarito while they prepare for their upcoming battle at Cowboys Stadium November 13th. Here’s our video for AOL […]
I had a quietly fun Halloween, happily taking the opportunity to make my little brother an earthworm costume at the last possible second. Middleeasy found this amazing image on twitter from fighter Jessamyn Duke, dressing up as Cris Cyborg and they’re posing in the action of the image. I am incredibly honored. This is just […]
You know, fancy photos from the Showtime set for Strikeforce: Fedor vs Werdum. Shot on location in the HP Pavilion. It was tons o’ fun. As you can see. Fire, water, everything thrown at them. And yes, Fedor did not react to the explosions and rain being thrown at him, at all. Not a blink. […]
I carry my little point-and-shoot 35mm Konica Big Mini around with me, usually loaded with Fuji Natura 1600 or Ilford XP2 (for fun) and I do my best to remember to take photos for personal posterity while working. Here’s a bunch of stuff I’ve shot on film over the last few months. I’ll be posting […]
MTV’s Rock N’ Jock countdown invaded AKA in San Jose for a few days during Strikeforce Challengers week and I hung around for some of the antics with Josh Thomson, Gilbert Melendez, staredown lessons with Mayhem and King Mo, and sparring with Miesha Tate. Though Dirty appeared to survive his fight with Takedown Tate, even […]
If we’re not on a plane, we’re in our car, driving either to or from Las Vegas on Interstate 15, to or from a Zuffa show, and we pass by skeletons of grand ideas, quiet, abandoned, burned. Last time, we stopped to snap photos of a burned semi (which is still there, two months later), […]
