a Realization

Last Friday I shot a band photo for local band and friends of mine; Realization. We went outside a few minutes before their set at Giovane's Pizza in Salinas. We used the light coming down the side of the liquor store as we improvised a band photo that turned out pretty interesting.

Black and White Event for Illusions of Grandeur

I was asked to shoot the set up for a black and white event in Carmel Valley for Illusions of Grandeur. The black and white color contrast was a challenge for me but I had a good time and the room looked great.

a handful of concert shots

Here are 5 images that I shot at a concert thursday night at Doc Ricketts in downtown Monterey. Because of the low light in the room I actually adjusted the contrast and color of these images slightly which is something that I have never done with my photos. Almost always my images are unedited and straight out of the camera. The band is Candyflip and they have an awesome live show that is very entertaining.
