Hello, fellow BCW members! When I’m not photographing food, I moonlight as a concert producer. I’m proud and excited to be launching Westchester’s newest live music this Friday 5/16 in Dobbs Ferry at HudCo! HudCo Presents is a new concert series in a dynamic converted factory space featuring two full-service bars, food, dessert and local craft vendors plus an amazing vibe when the lights are dimmed and the disco ball is shimmering over the stage.
