Better late than never: 311 and Slightly Stoopid show at Red Rocks in Morrison, CO–August 19th, 2012.
Buzz Under the Stars Night 2
96.5 the Buzz Presents: Buzz Under the Stars Night 2 featuring Zammuto, Chairlift and Gotye. The show was originally set to take place at Berkley Riverfront Park in Kansas City, MO but was moved to Crossroads at Grinders about a week before it was set to take place. While people were originally skeptical about the change, it ended up working […]
Dirty Heads+Matisyahu
I was chosen through a contest for Matisyahu to shoot their show with the Dirty Heads at Congress Theater in Chicago, IL. Usually for the bigger shows you are limited to shoot the first 3 songs from the pit; with the contest I was not only able to shoot in the pit but from the stage as well. Another new […]
Hangout Music Festival: Be Nice or Go Home
The summer has gotten away from me but I am finally posting shots from the Hangout Music Fest down in Gulf Shores, Alabama. It was a beyond amazing experience and opportunity I had to be able to get my first photo pass for a festival. Photo passes for festivals are usually reserved for the media/press so I was honored to […]
311 Cruise: “Our Version of Paradise”
When people think of paradise they probably don’t think of an all ages cruise. With bands. And drinking. And drinking games. And more bands. And sleep…wellll, you needs sleep when you’re in this kind of paradise, right? I mean sure you may have played flip cup before, but have you played it on a boat….in the Caribbean. Sure you’ve played […]
311: A way of life
Kansas City was lucky enough to get on 311’s winter schedule, however they did not get 2 sets due to it being a 4-act radio concert. Nevertheless, they put on a great show as always. I did not catch the first two openers of 96.5 The Buzz’s “Night the Buzz Stole XXX-mas,” but I was able to see Naked […]
Exposure 2011 contest
I have entered a photography contest called Exposure 2011. There are a couple different ways to win: first by having friends vote for your portfolio in the People’s Choice award. Secondly, they have a panel that picks the grand prize winner (not influenced by the People’s Choice). I need all the help I can get with votes, so you if don’t mind taking a second out of your day just click the link below and click “Vote” then “Like.” It is much appreciated and thank you for your support.

Airborne Toxic Event: You live and you learn
Navigating a new venue can tend to be a challenge. I had never been to the Beaumont Club for a concert and if I had I probably would have done things a little differently. It is a smaller venue which in this case meant no photo pit aka no space in front of the stage free of concertgoers. It just […]
Chro-me-o
First concert since making the move back to Kansas City: Chromeo @ the Midland. Unfortunately the opener, Mayer Hawthorne, wasn’t able to perform but it was a great night after all. Chromeo played their first ever KC show and rocked it.
Last Call and Liabilities Tour: A Sept. 11th to Remember
With all the coverage and documentaries playing on Sunday Sept. 11th, 2011 (the 10th anniversary), it was good to take time to remember. It doesn’t feel like it has been 10 years since that tragic day. 10 years ago, I was a Junior in high school-only 16 years old at the time. So when I walked into my drawing class […]
