Update #3: Big Party at Enids in Williamsburg-Brooklyn
Posted on November 3, 2009
I've talked to my friends over at Enids and we are set; after the book is completed we are going to have a big party to celebrate. Everyone who helped make it happen will be invited. There will be drink specials, copies of the book will be given out and be available for pickup. A rockin' slideshow of pictures from the book will also debut. Music, of course, will be hand selected to match the occasion.
High Five,
-Emily

I've been living in New York City since 1997. I picked up a camera while attending high school in Warner Robins, GA. My senior year I moved back to my hometown Chattanooga, TN and started photographing the struggling little music scene happening there. I went to UMASS Amherst because the Modern Lovers and the Pixies sang praises about that area. A year abroad in Norwich, England exposed me to jungle music and photographing concerts for the local paper. The day after graduation I moved to NYC where I quickly lost all my money to an illegal sublet. I stayed on my feet developed photos at a rinky dink shop on the lower eastside until good fortune sway my direction and I landed a job in the art & photo dept. of Men's Journal Magazine. I lasted a year then set off with my camera and started assisting other photographers. Two years later I got my first assignment..that was over 10 years ago.
Some other projects of mine have been about, Young Race Car Drivers and Summer Camps. I shoot commercially for magazines and record labels. I live in Hell's Kitchen with my amazing husband Corey Henderson and incredible son Nigel.
Sounds nice and excuse for me to party!!!!!!
