RIOTLA 2016

RIOT LA 2016 is currently underway in downtown Los Angeles and this is my 3rd time documenting the festival.  It’s always one of my favorite events to photograph each year.  With standup, improv, podcasts, music and more, RIOT artists are always pushing boundaries and experimenting, and as the festival’s lead photographer, I’ve always been afforded the freedom to do the same.

So thank you to the performers and organizers (particularly the festival’s creator, Abbey Londer) for the privilege of telling your story.  I hope that my photos bring back the excitement of the weekend long after it has passed.

Below are some of my current favorites from Friday & Saturday.  Check out my twitter and instagram feeds for more photos soon.01_zfri_7551 03_zfri_7699 04_zfri_7724 05_zfri_0470 03_zsat_8227 05_zsat_8402 06_zsat_0661 12_zsat_8677 15_zsat_8884 16_zsat_7637 17_zsat_8996  19_zsat_9368
