Sunset Jazz on the Hudson with Trio Cachimbo 🌅

Marcus Persiani and @trio_cachimbo closed out the summer program of outdoor jazz shows for @jazzfoundationofamerica. It was a beautiful bookend to an incredibly event for summer for the foundation and @summeronthehudson + @riversideparknyc.

The Friday rush hour on the WSH to my right did little to disrupt the spacey salsa and Latin jazz grooves put forward by the bass/conga/keyboard group. On a solemn day of rememberance (never forget), this show felt like a joyful tribute to the city's persistence in enjoying the present and facing the future.

Mixed in some black and white shots as I left my camera on that mode from my previous shoot (s/o @1tevlanier), and I absolutely loved capturing the contrasts presented by the setting sun.

As I try to catch as many of the remaining outdoor performances across the city this fall, I'll look forward to next summer's programming. Can't wait!!

Jazz in the Garden w/ Justin Robinson and Noel Simone Wippler 🎷

Last Friday's performance in the beautiful @harlemrosegarden was among the final events of the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival, bringing musicians and community members together across the city in tribute to the legend Charlie "Bird" Parker.

Justin stepped in as a late replacement and held it down on a cool, humid evening, building up the anticipation for the evening show at Marcus Garvey Park just down the street. And Noel performed vocal renditions beautifully while keeping an eye on her eager son, who was also raring to sing!!

Thank you to everyone who put this event together, I am grateful to be able to experience such amazing art in an incredible space uptown.

Gina D'Soto, West Harlem Summer Jazz Festival ☀️

@ginadsoto and her band played a set of R&B and Latin originals and classic covers, both in English and Spanish. They were able to complete the groovy set just before the summer shower started, leaving attendees satisfied ahead of the rain 🎶

It is always great to see local organizations like @whaanyc and @harlemlatenightjazz partner to bring more music to the community. The West Harlem Summer Jazz Festival has been robust, though this was my first performance attended! 🥁

Introducing: Rick's Photography NYC 📸

Over the last 18 months, I've been steadily building up my freelance photography practice and business, and have partnered with some incredible people to capture their efforts, ideas, and special moments. It has been a beautiful journey full of growth, learning, and opportunity. 🚀

Moving forward, I'll be sharing more of this work here @ricksphotography.nyc. I will still be on @ricksfilmfolder of course, though this will help me organize some of my digital photography work for the world. 🌎

I had been meaning to do a bit of a self-portrait shoot to "launch" this account, but I think it's be better to just get the ball rolling, so enjoy one of my favorite photographs from a test shoot earlier this year. 🤓

A big thank you to all of the helpful photographers I've met along the way. I've almost always come away with a piece of knowledge about the craft that I've incorporated into my photography. 🤝🏼🙏🏻

Looking for an event or portrait photographer? Shoot me a DM/email! And don't forget to check out my portfolio. 🔗

Cheers,
Rick

A year to remember!! 💓✨Okay... get ready for the mushiness. 🥹💖

When I first started this collective, I never could have imagined what it would become. I was in the middle of deep burnout, feeling incredibly isolated in a predominantly white field, and something in me just knew that community was the answer.

What has grown from that feeling has been more beautiful than I ever could have dreamed. I’ve had the absolute privilege of meeting the most brilliant, compassionate, hilarious, and deeply caring BIPOC therapists, therapists-in-training, and healers. So many of you have become dear friends, collaborators, and reminders that none of us have to do this work alone.

To everyone who has come to a gathering, shared a laugh, presented, volunteered, or simply believed in what we’re building... thank you. Truly. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 🥹💜

This collective exists because of ALL of us, and I can’t wait to keep dreaming, creating, and growing together.

Now enough making me emotional... let’s celebrate the night away!! 🥂✨ Here’s to one incredible year and to everything that’s still to come. 💖

✨ New here?
Our BIPOC Therapist Socials happen every month! We gather in a cute Brooklyn bar, making new friends and connecting with old ones 🩷 Each event has 1-2 mini presentations, diving deeper topics and concepts that are bringing us joy ✨

Classic Crates @scratchnyc Graduation @lohibrooklyn

I have learned that Scratch Academy is more than learning techniques.

I am reminded that Djing , like so many of our greatest traditions, is passed down through relationships.

Through people willing to share what they’ve learned, challenge you to grow, and celebrate your progress along the way.

Deep gratitude to my Professors @spunbysun & @dspliff139 for an incredible semester, and to my sister @goldkami , whose brilliance for DJing continue to inspire all of those around her.

Looking forward to next semester! Got a few things cooking up!

📸 Thank your for capturing these moments: @ricksfilmfolder
