Worked with Rykodisc to create this package for Allison Moorer’s new album Crows. We wanted to give the package a dark yet opulent quality so we found this great old turn of the century house in Staten Island (of all places).

I hired Angela Kohler to take the photos of Allison, she did an amazing job in a short amount of time. While she shot Allison, I buzzed around taking my own photos for the rest of the packaging, the walls with painted murals of scenes in Switzerland, the amazing floors and peeling paint. I gathered all of this up with my collection of caligraphy and old postcards to create this package, I then worked in the crow imagery which fit nicely into the pieces to make it beautiful and dark yet rich and colorful, very much like the music.
