Elevating camp photography with Asphalt Green

Community

Delighting families with dramatic images


The last two summers I've had fun making many of the photographs shared with families by Asphalt Green Upper East Side Day Camp. To my dismay the site they use to share the photos strips off all the information about the photo and the photographer, so this year we added captions to the images so the families can see which of the three of us made the images they see. One day someone will make the perfect online sharing platform.


On short notice in 2023 I jumped at the chance to with with the Camp to make connections on the east side of Manhattan. For years I have mostly worked with schools and families on the west side. Documenting the mix of sports and activities for seven weeks each summer has been a wild ride (and great for my step count). More than 20,000 images too that I edited down to several thousand to share this year alone.


Privacy considerations limits the images I can share here, but if you share with me an image I made this year I can share it and other images in a private gallery.


I'm also available to do family photo sessions, cover school events, and make images for your company with the same care and technical edge you've seen these past two summers. I'm looking forward to working with you.

Getting started


Would you like to see more images of your campers in one place? Send me a note, including the name of the photo (the last part of the photo caption below the image) and the day it was made and I'll scan my images for others and create a private gallery for you. Fingers crossed I have many, it is a big camp and some groups accidentally don't get covered as much as others. But we can fill in the gaps with family sessions or getting your school on board for an upgrade to how they document the school year.
