I had the pleasure of photographing for ISNA this past weekend down in Baltimore, MD. The event showcased a variety of speakers with topics addressing the wide variety of issues facing Muslims in the American context. The convention was a success and I had the opportunity to meet and acquaint myself with many new people. Here are a few shots from the event. Enjoy.

The Muslim Education and Converts Center of America [M.E.C.C.A.] held a fundraiser at the Hudson Valley Islamic Community Center, in Lake Mohegan, New York, this weekend. M.E.C.C.A., is a non-profit organization that specializes in educational efforts for new Muslims. They’re based out of New York City. It was my pleasure to photograph the event. I wish them well on their efforts to provide these much needed services to new Muslims. Enjoy the photo gallery.

Saturday evening’s gig played host to Stars of the Lid, a duo specializing in drone-based sound scape music. The concert was hosted by The Gatherings and was held at St. Mary’s Church, located in West Philadelphia. A genre of music that is not normally associated with live performance, the music was very moving and emotional, with the selected pieces tying a string throughout the repertoire. A few shots from the event.
