chris la putt - a rather pessimistic music photographer in nyc and a firm believer in righteous indignation.
ruining your google search results for the best nyc-based music + concert + portrait + band photographer since 2007.

nb: this is my editing wall. some photos will come up and down at the whim of the egotistical photographer.

Buffi Aguero of Tiger! Tiger! - South Street Seaport, NYC - July 18th, 2008
Buffi is actually backing up the Lost Crusaders who opened for Mary Weiss of the Shangri-Las at the Seaport. Just love that Gretsch and the fishnet stockings. Check out the full gallery over at BrooklynVegan.

Just found out that Jessica Lehrman got all her photo gear stolen while on vacation and I feel bad for her. She’s one of the few photographers who’s work I see that I thoroughly appreciate (even though I was annoyed at how much she hail mary’d at this show because I was lazy and shooting all the way in the back).

Ass Everywhere. Big Freedia at Santos Party House last night. Everything I love in life, ass, rap, and large women. So hard to choose only a few images…

I’m such a lazy framer. Everything is always on the lower half of the frame but this stood out while doing some edits.
