Music Photography | Live Concert Photos | Music Portraits
My reason for becoming a music photographer is very similar to why I chose to become a musician; I enjoy sharing emotional art with others. This fact still rings very true today; just now with a camera in-hand rather than a trumpet.
Please take a look around and get a feel for my style as you think about booking a photo session. I prioritize communication and want you to feel as comfortable and camera-ready as possible. Let's give you the best chance possible for that standing ovation.
Why Jack?
Why choose me as your music photographer?
Background
Before picking up a camera, I spent 10 years playing trumpet. Although you probably wouldn't want to hear me play now, I've lived a musical life.
Simplicity
Take the stage and do what you know how to do. I'll make it look really cool, I promise.
Experience
My dad owned an audio/ visual company; there were more cameras than beds in our house and I literally grew up around this industry.
Passion
All I want is to make performers look & feel cool. Everything else is secondary.
Communication
Being able to understand terms like "sickled foot" and "stick heights" is really beneficial in this line of work. Details matter.
Shaky iPhone 6s footage from Row 19 doesn't exist here. You'll get my best, every time.
