Live Performance Photography

Specializing in capturing you and your performance at it’s most pure and exciting moments while you do what you do. I will speak with you before hand and we’ll get to know each other and what your goals are for the images, and anything special about this show or venue that you’d like to capture. With extensive experience in venues of all sizes, all lighting and all crowd size, I’ll be able to make sure we get the shots you need.

Portrait/Promotional Photography:

Press Kit? Head Shots? CD covers? I’m all over it. I work exclusively with professional Canon, Manfrotto, Adobe and Apple equipment to make sure you’re receiving the highest quality images. I have the capability to shoot either in my small studio or just as easily (and preferred) on location with all the essential equipment. These packages can include a basic one location portrait in an hour to a multi-location, multi-wardrobe change, super session where we capture many looks and styles for you to choose from. There’s a package for all budgets so don’t be afraid to ask and make sure if this will be the image you put “out there” that it’s one you’ll be proud of and not from your cousin’s iPhone.

Behind-the-Scenes Video/Photography:

One of the coolest projects involves being the “Behind-the-Scenes” fly on the wall during studio time, rehearsals, or video production. Building from the ever popular “behind the music” concept, these images and footage provide an intimate look into the band, it’s personality, work ethic (or lack there of) and what it’s like to really be you. This content is a very effective method for gaining increased “face time” with your fans via social networking sites like Facebook or You Tube and can serve as filler for those long periods of time between new releases and shows. I’d be glad to share examples and references for this type of project should you be interested. There’s no set cost for this service as the scope of each project will be vastly different per artist or performer. Contact me and we can talk about how to make something happen within your budget, there’s always a way.

Documentary Projects:

In addition to the services above I’m also active in developing several Documentary projects. I’ll post more information as each project develops, with samples of the imagery and any exhibition or release information. Should you have a project that you think might benefit from my style and approach to photography I would be glad to speak with you about it in detail. Please send along a paragraph description of the idea, the desired result and I will come back to you asap with some thoughts about how and if I can be of service.
