When you tell @foxxxy1124 you may need some assistance tonight shooting a show; she presents this draw-dropping shot of Chayla of @thesublets. It looks like I'm now replaceable. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **Nikon D600** 105mm @ f/2.8, 1/320th sec, ISO 5000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bummed I missed the opening three songs to photograph @ravenblackband up close last night. Luckily, I got to meet her after their set and what a stand-up vocalist! Hung out at merch all night meeting fans. Hoping Inkcarceration is my next opportunity. Loved the performance!

The young Cleveland thrashers, @assaultcle blew my expectations (and they were high) outta the đŸ”„ as I witnessed their high energy set for the first time at the Grog Shop. It was a full-on 'Assault' (pun intended)! These guys took 2nd place at the High School Rock Off hosted by the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame Battle last month. Be sure to check out my full-on review at Uncivil Revolt soon!

So many things ran through my head. Never would have thought I get to photograph my all-time favorite band. The band that started it all for me. This still has to sink in and my thoughts will soon come to fruition. Metallica at the sold-out Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland! What a great way to jump start my birthday. @metallica @papa_het_ Thanks to Uncivil Revolt Magazine. This wouldn't have been a thought in my head if it wasn't for them!

For a good part of 8 months, I’ve been in charge of designing Olathia’s forthcoming album and as much as I want to share my progression, the big unveil will have to wait later this spring. Until then, here’s a sliver of a shoot we did last May. **BEHIND THE SHOT** Off the towpath trail in Valley View, Ohio, Mill Creek cuts through a small forest that eventually connects the Cuyahoga River. I remember scouting out this location a few weeks prior and noticed that the water revealed land spots in the middle of the creek. I knew it is hit or miss since the shoot was the following week. Fast forward to the shoot...that morning did bring light rain. Decided to load all my gear in the wagon and marched into the forest through weeds and muck. Down a steep river bank, over a dam, my carriage bouncing over the creek stones, the spot was eventually set up. Probably over the course of an hour, the rains stalled the shoot until a passing gave way. By the time this shot was taken, I glanced down to where I was kneeling to find that the stream was rapidly dissolving the dry creek bed and our exit would soon be too late. We quickly packed it up after this image. Thanks to the cooperation of the band moving my gear and each of us pulling one another up the now even sloppier incline, we safely dodged that bullet to come away what you now see here. Two lights were used with @atmosphereaerosol giving you the fog behind my subjects. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **Nikon D750** 32mm @ f/10, 1/125th sec, ISO 200 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
