Music
This was hands down the hardest concert I have ever shot. I'm used to being able to push around in a loud and rowdy crowd while a performer runs constantly all over the stage. This was entirely the opposite. I had to take the best photos as fast as possible with a very still performer. All while being as silent and unnoticeable as possible. Not too happy with the results, but I hope I have a chance to try it again. Always learning something.

Went right across the river from work and shot the Rino Music Festival. It was the inaugural event, and was quite an awesome lineup. Bishop Briggs, 888, St. Lucia, and Silversun Pickups. Here are my selects from the event.

Extremely excited by the opportunities I have found within Denver for my photography so far. I didn't imagine myself taking photos at a Red Rocks concert so quickly. Here I am though, and here are the photos from that concert. Short and sweet copy. I have been very busy with work, applying to graduate school, and still trying to have fun in between.
Never did I think I would find myself leaning over the railing of the stage at Red Rocks with my camera a burp's direction away from Lil Dicky. I guess my pictures aren't too horrible if someone gave me a press pass to do that.
The show started out Sunny and relatively empty. I hadn't been to a concert with mostly DJ's before and the crowd was definitely.... interesting. Right towards the end of Lil Dicky's set the clouds began to spit on the amphitheater. Then with Tchami next the photographers trudged out into the downpour with cameras undershirt.
Not the biggest fan of DJ's and their electronic thump thump since the interaction between the crowd and the music is mostly directed by the LED lights and screen images. I think the crowd was definitely into letting Lil Dicky freak and he was much more lively and enjoyable to photograph.
Tonight I photograph Umphrey's Mcgee at Red Rocks
