The Fabulous Fox
St. Louis’ Crown Jewel.
Opened in 1929, this Siamese-Byzantine masterpiece was once one of the grandest movie palaces in America. Designed by C. Howard Crane, its gold-drenched interior and ornate detail mirrored its twin in Detroit.
But by the late ’70s, the Fox had gone dark—abandoned, fading, nearly lost.
In 1981, it was rescued and restored to its former glory. Since then, it’s been home to Broadway shows, legendary concerts (like Chuck Berry’s 60th), and unforgettable nights under the stars and chandeliers.
Proof that even the most forgotten places can rise again.

Some favorites from this week shooting the @apgatour at @glenechocc
A ton of talent, long days in the sun, and a lot of moments worth chasing.
Definitely looking forward to being around this game more.
Massive shout out the whole @apgatour team @kylecwalton and @markthomaslangford
Btw, I don’t know most of the players so if you see yourself or know them.. tag em in the comments please.
Saturday afternoon in St. Louis, a four alarm fire ripped through an occupied four story apartment building near Union and Waterman in the Central West End. The first heavy fire was reported around 3:20 pm, and within minutes it pushed into the roofline.
By the time the street filled with sirens, crews were already committing big resources. Three aerial waterways went up to hit the fire from above, and roughly 80 firefighters were on scene as the response escalated.
Then winter showed up to make it worse. All that water turning instantly to ice meant the city warned people to avoid the area because streets and sidewalks were getting dangerously slick.
This is what a scene like that feels like from the curb.
Air that tastes like wet ash.
A steady roar you can feel in your chest.
Ladders rising like steel silhouettes.
Windows breathing smoke.
And firefighters moving with that calm focus that only shows up when everything is trying to go sideways.
No injuries were reported.
If you live in this city, you know these blocks. Today they look normal. Saturday they were lit by strobes, headlamps, and orange glow, with warming buses staged nearby for displaced residents.
St. Louis Fire Department, thank you for doing the work most people never want to see up close.
@xdannyxbrownx Last night at @thesovereignstl Danny Brown turned the venue into complete chaos in the best way possible. From the second he hit the stage, the energy never dropped. The room was packed, loud, and moving nonstop as bass rattled through the entire building.
There was no filler and no slowing things down. Danny attacked every track with intensity while the crowd screamed every lyric back at him. The smaller venue made everything feel even heavier and more unhinged, like the entire room was about to explode at any second.
It felt less like a concert and more like surviving a controlled riot. One of the wildest rap shows St. Louis has had in a long time.
Some before and afters from the storm that pasted through the St.Louis area on April 27th 2026.
This one could have be pretty bad but we dodged a bullet almost a year later from the tornado that hit us last year.
It always hits different when your friends are doing something special and even more when they bring you into it.
Had the chance to shoot photos for @samuelpletsgo new album that dropped today. He had the idea and we leaned into a wild fisheye look and it came out exactly how we envisioned it.
Proud of you, man. This one’s a real one and I appreciate you trusting me to be part of it
