Hi! Thanks for visiting. I'm an American photographer living in Buenos Aires. These are photos from the blog I kept on my site from 2003 to 2009. I now have redesigned the home page to just show a portfolio of my current work. I also blog at BuenosAiresPhotographer.com where I post my baires snapshots.

 

Helipads

Continuing with São Paulo clichés, here are a couple of photos of helipads. Many buildings have these on their roof. They´re so executives can scoot around town from meeting to meeting without mingling with the horrendous traffic. I haven´t actually been seeing all that many helicopters flying about. I wonder if having a helipad is not some sort of expensive signaling mechanism for real estate developers to attract more expensive tenants, sort of like putting viking stoves in new condos. I´ve actually been in Rio all this past week (tough life, I know). Soon I´ll be posting more boring building & architecture photos from that beautiful city.

Hi. I'm a 33 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. Currently I'm posting most of my pictures on BuenosAiresPhotographer.com. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.
