This last weekend, my brother (an L.A talent agent) flew in to St. Louis to meet with Nelly. He recently signed him and had some projects to discuss. Of course, I drove to St. Louis and met with my brother and his collegue, Joe. I was also pretty excited about meeting Nelly and doing some shooting at his Charity Basketball Game! The weekend was certainly eventful to say the least! Joe is one of the most charismatic and comical people that I have had to chance to spend time with! A LOT of laughs were had from start to finish! At the charity basketball game, I was fortunate enough to be able to shoot on the court side by side with an amazing urban-celebrity photographer- known as KING YELLA www.kingyella.com. I also had court-side seats during the game. The environment was lively and excited. NELLY is certainly viewed as a superhero in St. Louis! For the half-time show, we were entertained by rapper PAUL WALL and a new rap group from Atlanta named FAST LIFE YUNGSTAZ. Also- the REF was Olympian Gold Metal winner Jackie Joyner-Kersee!! It was a great time and I just wanted to share a few of my images! ENJOY!!
