Not that I want to step up onto my shinebox and rant, but… in this day and age where we have camera phones that have 8mp sensors and point and shoot cameras that you could shoot a Vanity Fair cover with, why target photographers with DSLRs at concerts? Soon after arriving at the show I was told that I couldn’t use my camera at the venue because “it has a removable flash”. Uh, what?

It’s frustrating to go to a show and have “that” person in front of you, the one that insists on using a flash despite being 50 feet from the stage and only lighting the heads of the two people in front of them and possibly blinding the performing act.

Either way, I’m a loner, Dottie. A rebel. I fired off a few shots anyway and saw one of the best shows of the year.

I was recently commissioned to shoot photos for a few billboards. This one just went up a couple weeks ago.

This was one of my favorite shots from the day though. I like fire and knives.

Five different shoots from College of Charleston Magazine’s Fall issue (should be out soon).
