Bob Weir was here on Monday and I was there to catch him at the Paramount Theatre with his new band Wolf Brothers. Not many people have had careers as prolific as Weir, and he shows no signs of stopping. This three-piece band and their take on Bob’s favorite cowboy songs was a slam dunk, both and depth of players and in quality of song choices. Bob was singing well and, despite the occasional missed lyric he is so well known for, his vocals were on point. On top of that, his guitar playing was every bit as good as his vocals. Simply put, the man really is on top of his game. Made up of legends Don Was and Jay Lane, Wolf Brothers are definitely no slouches and created the perfect canvas for another Weir musical masterpiece. If you missed this one you definitely missed something unique. It wasn’t like your average Ratdog, Dead, Further, Dead Company gig…this was actually a new take on what Bobby Weir loves so much – his inner cowboy.

Capturing life in various forms is what I do. I consider myself an archivist by nature. It is not a career choice that I consciously made, but it is something that has called me. I strive to freeze a moment in time with every frame, a moment that can retell its story with each viewing, forever. I also have a deep passion for music and have been photographing and recording live music for years. Capturing the energy and magic of a live performance in a photograph is one of my passions. In addition, I enjoy photographing in a wide variety of settings, from wildlife scenes to family portraits and everything in between. I am a lover of the earthscapes that we see all around us every day, both natural and manmade, and aim to make unique images that do justice to their beauty. Where others see darkness, I see streaks of light through long exposures.

I shoot a very wide variety of subject matter including individual/family portraits, event coverage, landscapes, live concert/performance, HDR, product and commercial photography, architectural, weddings, food, and editorial photo journalism. With artistic expression, I aspire to create visual art that speaks volumes.
