The legendary @rza aka Bobby Digital aka RZArector aka The Abbot aka Prince Rakeem aka Ruler Zig-Zag-Zig Allah. It’s impossible to overstate the importance of Wu-Tang and all their side projects on a 13 year-old skateboarder in 1995. That music helped me navigate some of the hardest parts of growing up. And this man was the mastermind behind it all. I’ve had the honor photographing the RZA twice and this shoot made it on the cover and inside pages of @musicweekinsta. Thanks @contourbygettyimages.

As a deep grunge obsessive, I was already excited for the amazing Melissa Auf Der Maur’s (@xmadmx) new memoir Even The Good Girls Will Cry. So it was extra special that @sarahgilbertguardian asked me to photograph her for @guardian. Melissa played bass in both Hole and Smashing Pumpkins at various times. And later opened The Basilica in Hudson where we shot these photos. The article is out now and the book comes out tomorrow.

From a visit to the rain tower and environmental chamber at @goretexbrand labs. They can simulate nearly any environmental condition on the planet to test their products. Too bad Gore-Tex doesn’t make lenses. Thanks for bringing me along @srimassa.

It was 20 years ago this month that I first made the blog Lovebryan. I recently finished college and was crashing at different friends’ houses and even sleeping on the roof under the solar panels of my old co-op at UC Berkeley. @oldmanbasel let me keep my huge Apple eMac in their room and I’d teach myself to code during the day while they were in class. After a few weeks, the blog was born. I made pages for all my friends to post about their daily lives, travels, parties, whatever. It was our DIY form of social media. I’d make new homepages every week with the updated posts. For me, it was an amazing platform to develop my photography, build confidence, get feedback and ultimately launch a career in photo. It was just as cool to see others like @mikebelleme , @sandycandykim , and @danilorparra progress from blog posts to illustrious creative careers of their own.
But for all the sweet nostalgia, it also contained plenty of navel-gazing, insensitive, sketchy, and embarrassing work. As the tech overlords forced their will upon us, we mostly migrated away from Lovebryan and to Instagram. With the exception of occasional posts by Danilo and @allenying , it’s mostly been a relic for the last decade. So after 20 years, Lovebryan.com has officially been retired. You can probably dig up various iterations on the Wayback Machine, but I like to think everyone’s best work and creative contributions are yet to come.
Thanks to all who contributed and viewed the site over the years. Love, Bryan.

After a few weeks, the blog was born. I made pages for all my friends to post about their daily lives, travels, parties, whatever. It was our DIY form of social media. I’d make new homepages every week with the updated posts. For me, it was an amazing platform to develop my photography, build confidence, get feedback and ultimately launch a career in photo. It was just as cool to see others like @mikebelleme , @sandycandykim , and @danilorparra progress from blog posts to illustrious creative careers of their own.
But for all the sweet nostalgia, it also contained plenty of navel-gazing, insensitive, sketchy, and embarrassing work. As the tech overlords forced their will upon us, we mostly migrated away from Lovebryan and to Instagram. With the exception of occasional posts by Danilo and @allenying , it’s mostly been a relic for the last decade. So after 20 years, Lovebryan.com has officially been retired. You can probably dig up various iterations on the Wayback Machine, but I like to think everyone’s best work and creative contributions are yet to come.
Thanks to all who contributed and viewed the site over the years. Love, Bryan.

Actor James Cromwell went vegan while filming his Oscar-nominated role in Babe in 1995. He’s since become an animal rights activist among many other things. I got to spend a little time with him at his house for The @guardian. Thanks @sarahgilbertguardian.

Fun night at the Gotham Awards for @imdb and @gettyimages. I had no idea who was gonna walk through that door and it ended up being some of my absolute favorites. I had about 30 seconds to do each person justice. Thanks to all that obliged and @kennethawert for bringing me on.
