Awesome Day

This is the first time in a long time that I could honestly say it was an Awesome Day!  It started with my first family photo session of the day telling me it was the best photo shoot they had ever had. How awesome is that?

And It ended nicely when I was called a pseudo celebrity by a local celebrity. A-w-e-s-o-m-e.  I will become a photo rockstar!

Unamed Metal Rockstar

 

Had the pleasure of doing a promotional shoot for a great new comic book http://ariseundead.com/. Also had the honor of having a british rockstar from a famous metal band in my studio for the shoot. How much more exciting could photography be?

Rapedoor The Band

I got the pleasure of working with Rapedoor once again; You can’t get better rockstar photos than these.

 

Jezebel Jones and Her Wicked Ways

Jezebel Jones and Her Wicked Ways had her CD release party at the Amsterdam Bar in St Paul, Mn and it was an exciting night. El Le Faunt blew me away, and of course Jezebel Jones and Her Wicked Ways were fantastic. It was an honor to be involved with this project.

Wounded Knee

After a normal 8 hour wedding on Saturday I was being lazy and trying to carry all of my gear in as quickly as possible and lugging it pack mule style. I stepped on the curb wrong and took a tumble, but luckily in my old age, and after many years playing soccer and hurting my ankles, I know how to fall.  In the end I ruined a pair of perfectly good $6 pair of pantyhose when I went down to my knees, but I saved my ankle and gear.

I am proud of myself because I hopped up, cleaned and dressed my wound [a klutz like me always has band-aids and Neosporin in my medicine kit] and still went out for a drink with friends that evening.

It’s always the same weak ankle that gives out, the one with the damaged ligaments. So it always seems I scrape the same poor knee….

Gave me a good excuse to take Sunday off though :)

My native name should be Wounded Knee CC.

This is my 2nd record cover this year! I worked hard on this project, and am so proud of it!! JJ was awesome to work with and I hear her CD and 7inch are getting great comments thanks to the images.

 

Also thanks to Shawn Bartle for being an awesome model when our pro model never showed! What a night!
