Ever since I first picked up a camera there has been one subject I have shied away from in my work; people. However, there is one exception to this rule. I've always had an incredible love of music and especially concerts; the palpable energy, intimacy and emotion and the adrenaline rush that comes with hearing your favorite artists and songs live in front of you combined with all of the other like-minded fans gathered together in the same room singing along is unlike anything else. This, combined with my lifelong fascination of capturing truly unique moments through my photos that not only preserve my most treasured memories but also allows me to share them with the world led me to the natural path of concert photography.

From being a kid shooting shows with an '02 Kodak EasyShare point-and-shoot over a decade ago to a professional photographer who has made photography my full-time career, now shooting shows with a Canon 1D X, the passion for live music and my love of capturing it remains as strong as ever.
