No Invite Vol. 12

My new book and a mid-year check in.

Jul 21, 2025

Let’s cut to the chase, No Invite Vol. 12 is here. No Invite is forever. There is going to be a book release party and gallery show at Morrison Hotel Gallery in NYC July 24th from 6-8pm. I hope to see you there.

You can buy the new book HERE. Also, No Invite: The Hat. I’m really slinging the merch these days.

No Invite Vol. 12 covers the 2025 fashion season full of portraits I’ve taken sneaking into New York Fashion Week. I had a grand plan for a new post after February’s fashion week, with a ton of observations and gripes. I sat down to write it out and realized I pretty much addressed most of the same issues in my post after last September. Someone needs to breathe new life into NYFW. So many brands have left for Europe, not enough brands have filled the voids left behind, and emerging designers can’t afford to show their collections in any official capacity.

After September having some of the best weather I’ve ever experienced during fashion week, and it still feeling lack luster, I was concerned for February. It was a bit more interesting with some better fashion in the streets, but my god the cold weather was unrelenting. You’d never guess from No Invite Vol. 12 though, that is page after page of hits.

So, I apologize for neglecting this newsletter a bit. I started it a year ago to promote my work, since promoting anything on Instagram these days is a futile task. This book release isn’t any different. I resorted to DM’ing as many people as I could the flyer directly while dodging spam filters. Hopefully this email finds you well or at least well enough.

So what’s been going on?

I was going to make a bulleted list, or a few paragraphs about what I’ve been up to but I’ll just leave some photos from the last 6 months to catch you up. Starting with some of my favorite portraits.
