Brandon Clark, Arlene's Grocery, NYC 12/14/08

Brandon Clark, fantastic band and even better friend, came up to New York as mentioned earlier and rocked the house at Arlene's Grocery last Sunday. I believe they are already have another new york show in the works, so if you missed the first one, stay updated, there will be more! Here are just a few shots from the show the other night, the rest will probably be posted on myspace.com/erikafriedlanderphoto in the next few days. Enjoy!

start spreadin' the news

since i've moved to new york, and i'm in between work, i've gotten a lot of time on my hands to really explore and learn about this city. i love it. i've spent a lot of time with my friend (and birthday twin!) Chris Fantauzzi (chrisfantauzzi.com). Yesterday we ate some delicious Magnoila Cupcakes:

♥20♥

So I'm headed to New York on the 30th, which is a bit sudden, but very exciting. This past weekend, I had some friends come through Atlanta on their way from SCAD back to their respective homes. I got the opportunity to take some portraits of my very good friend Jon and his friend Chris. Below are a few of the shots of Jon that I've worked on so far. More shots, including the shots of Chris. Enjoy this little taste :)

Copeland and Lovedrug 11.20.08

i had the wonderful opportunity to shoot Copeland and Lovedrug this past weekend. a big thank you to Jim, the manager of the band Lydia, who we sadly only got to hear from outside while we waited on the people at the box office to find our passes. i've been a huge fan of Copeland since the beginning of high school, and i've seen them live a few times. it really was an honor to shoot them. here is a handful of the images i took:
