Noelle Senior Portrait

Noelle was a lot of fun to take pictures of. She has a very easygoing and relaxed personality, and she’s not afraid to pose for the camera either!

Nikon D700 with 24-70 and 70-200 lenses. Rough split. A few in the studio to start and then on to old Sacramento for the train station and down by the river. Great place to shoot photographs, it has very nice backgrounds, ambiance, and the river is nice too.

Have a great week!

Hot Buttered Rum & The Brothers Comatose @Harlows

Hot Buttered Rum and the Brothers Comatose at Harlow’s in Sacramento. Fun show, these are truly talented musicians that know how to do it up right. It’s fun to be a part of a show like this where you can get right up to the front row and really see what the heck is going on. Or hang back and dance with the… dancing people in the back. I like it up front myself. It’s fun to be right there in the moment and part of it. Harlow’s is great for that.

14-24. One photo the wide one with the whole band.

24-70. 5 of them, mid to normal.

70-200. All of the close ups or longer shots. Probably my favorite all around for this venue.

And the Nikon D700. Still love that camera, even more with the battery grip and the faster frame rate.

 

 

Sierra Hull @ Harlow’s

Sierra Hull put on a great show at Harlow’s with Rob Ickes and Jim Hurst. Sierra is quite the powerhouse and seriously rocks the mandolin. Rob is also one serious dobro player!

Below are my favorites, you can see all of the evening here. 

 

 

Nikon D700 with a 24-70 and a 70-200, mostly the 70-200 though. I was very sad this week to have dropped my 24-70 and will be without it for at least two weeks. This is akin to missing a family member! Extra beer should be required to manage the grief. Preferably a Sierra Nevada Pale ale.

Diego’s Umbrella at the Independent San Francisco – Band Concert Photos

Diego’s Umbrella played The Independent in San Francisco on 11-11-11. It was a great show, one of the best I have ever been to. The band has an innovative and interesting sound. It’s fresh and new, yet has roots in old school flamenco and European eastern sounds. I love it.

Here’s some shots from the show, all of the photos from the set can be found here.

Below are some of my favorites from the night, although it was very hard to narrow it down. Enjoy.

 

 

Custom Cars, Details. Colorful interestingness.

Ride Fest at UTI in Sacramento.  Lot’s of cool cars and cool people. Tragically White rocked the joint. Shot mostly details and some HDR, but all of the photos can be found here.  There are a bunch of them, as is typical with event photography. My favorites are all above!

All shots are with the 24-70 or the 70-200 VR-II, a few in the bunch are HDR but most are straight out of the camera or minimal Lightroom processing. If any photog peeps have questions let er rip and I’ll answer back in the comments!

Have an amazing day.
