I shoot music because I genuinely love music. I am a freelance concert and event photographer serving the Pacific Northwest. Our focus is on capturing the local talent, at local venues in order to promote the growth of our cultural community. Through my lens I hope to focus on the foundation and strengthening of the arts infrastructure with less emphasis on national weekend attractions and more emphasis on under-recognized raw talent. I’m talking about capturing people who do great music, generally for little in the way of compensation, purely for the passion behind it. – Christian Hamilton
