MUSIC

I spent a lot of my life time traveling in vans infront of trailers filled with guitars, drums, and everything else under the sun. These days I’ve taken myself off the stage, but you’ll still find me at shows with my camera from time time. These are a few of my shots with bands I’ve worked with over the years.
