THE STRUTS IN NEW ORLEANS | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I had the opportunity to photograph the Alt 92.3 Humbug Bash a few weeks ago in New Orleans, which showcased rock band The Struts as the headlining event!
UNDEROATH IN NEW ORLEANS | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I had the opportunity to photograph one of my favorite bands, Underoath! Sometimes you go to a concert and it’s like an out of body experience- I’ve only been to a few shows like that and this was definitely one of them.
IMAGINE DRAGONS IN NEW ORLEANS | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I had the incredible opportunity to photograph Imagine Dragons last night for Interscope Records! With how big this band has gotten, I knew that this show would be an amazing one to shoot so I am so glad I had the opportunity to. I got some of my favorite shots in a while!
WEEZER AND PIXIES IN NEW ORLEANS | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
A few weeks ago I had the privilege of photographing Weezer and Pixies in New Orleans for local alternative radio station, Alt 92.3.
FIRST THREE, NO FLASH | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION
So if you have been living under a rock and haven't seen my 58208 posts about it, I had an exhibition for my music photography and it went sooo well! I literally posted about this show an obnoxious amount for fear of nobody showing up and it ended up being a success!
LIL DICKY | GROOVIN 2018 | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
Lil Dicky was super fun to photograph. He had so much energy on stage which makes or breaks my experience photographing artists in most cases. Big thanks to LSU Student Government for having me back to document the night!
TURKEY EVE / COUNTRY FRIENDSGIVING
On Wednesday I got to shoot a little country music Friendsgiving the night before Thanksgiving at the legendary honky tonk Texas Club in Baton Rouge! My friends in Parish County Line invited me out to shoot the night and I had a really great time.
FOREVER WARPED / VANS WARPED TOUR 2017
Some photos and designs I got to do for the Vans Warped Tour Houston 2017 date for the marketing team!
VOODOO MUSIC + ARTS EXPERIENCE 2017
I was fortunate enough this year to be working for Voodoo Fest in New Orleans, instead of just being press. I actually had 2 assignments come together for the weekend, one with shooting for JaM Cellars Wine at their marketing activation on Saturday, and one with the C3 Presents (the company that puts on Voodoo Fest) to shoot marketing content all weekend.
SPEAKEAZY / G-EAZY X STILLHOUSE
Last week I was asked by Swim Social, a social media agency out of Los Angeles, to come out and photograph an event for one of their clients, Stillhouse. Turns out that Stillhouse and G-Eazy were throwing a little private party at Republic in New Orleans to announce their new partnership!
BLINK-182 / MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
Blink-182 is one of those bands that has just always been around for me. I am so happy to have been able to photograph one of my bucket-list bands, and their lighting production was epic. My favorite shots are below!
LILWEEZYANA FEST | NEW ORLEANS | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
LilWeezyAna Fest, this year boasting acts "Collegrove" (Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz) Yo Gotti, Migos, and special guests Mystikal, PNC, and Chris Brown, had an unbelievable turnout at Champions Square for its second year in New Orleans, LA. After an afternoon of heavy rain, the weather threatened to complicate the fest, but rain held out to see Lil Wayne return to his hometown of NOLA and deliver a high-energy performance.
VANS WARPED TOUR / NEW ORLEANS
Alright alright alright, this blog post has been a long time coming. I have literally been trying to go to Vans Warped Tour since I was like, 15 years old. I'm 23 now! This year, they announced that the tour would be rolling through New Orleans for the first time in like 10 years or something like that, and I was like oh heck yeah not only am I taking off work and GOING, I am GOING TO SHOOT IT AND I DON'T CARE WHO TRIES TO STOP ME!
BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE | ASKING ALEXANDRIA | CANE HILL
It's been a rough past few months with me being super busy and not being able to shoot as many shows, so I'm very happy that the few I have been able to shoot have been really successful! These are some of my favorite live images I've taken (because Asking Alexandria and Bullet For My Valentine had amazing light... also because I got to get some band portraits of Cane Hill before their hometown show in New Orleans
THIRD EYE BLIND | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I have been pumped about these photos for a while, but just haven't been able to sit down until now to finally get them up on this blog! I really don't have much to say about this concert except for that Third Eye Blind was AMAZING and that I was only able to shoot from one spot (no pit at the venue) for the whole time.
SAOSIN / MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
Here are shots of the opener, LIMBS and then Saosin with original lead vocalist Anthony Green.
FALL OUT BOY / AWOLNATION / PVRIS / MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I have recently been setting the bar really high with my photos (for my personal standards) so it's getting harder and harder to push myself. I feel like I could have done (much) better with my PVRIS and AWOLNATION photos, but I really am in love with most of the moments I captured of Fall Out Boy! They had this really cool fake snow that fell from the ceiling during the first song, which was great since I only got to shoot the first 3 songs of each band. It made for some really epic visuals!
BUKU MUSIC + ART PROJECT | MUSIC FESTIVAL PHOTOGRAPHY
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to cover BUKU Music + Art Project (better known to the New Orleans area as BUKU Fest) for Stitched Sound! I had always heard about BUKU but never attended. It's only been around for a couple years but each year it has been getting bigger and bigger, and this year it had actually sold out (30,000 people, CRAZY!)
THE AP WORLD TOUR | HOUSTON, TX | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
A few weeks ago I got to go on a long anticipated trip to Houston with my boyfriend to see/photograph The AP World Tour at Scout Bar!
MUTEMATH | NOTHING BUT THIEVES | MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY
I mentioned in a previous blog post about how I sometimes benefit from the use of a 70-200mm lens at concerts when there isn't a barricaded "photo-pit" for photographers to shoot from. This MUTEMATH concert is a perfect exmaple of one of these times. I knew the show was sold out and I knew the venue (The Varsity Theatre in Baton Rouge) didn't have a photo pit. So I made sure that I got there PLENTY early to get up to the front of the stage and hold out a spot.
