That many find my photographic output pleasing [ comments ] and choose to use the images in accordance with my photo usage policy.

To that end, I was a member of the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) and Editorial Photographers (-2009) to understand and comply with the legal constraints of media photography. I am a law abiding photographer.

Absolutely.

Please consider the services offered by other gig/concert photographers; there are many talented photographers who offer similar services.

I don't recommend or endorse any particular music photographers, however can direct you to this [link ] - a worldwide directory of gig photographers that I have collated.

Some specialize in live event photography where others are formally trained portrait/studio photographers. Each brings their unique approach to music photography as well as a variety of services to bands and musicians. I believe you will find their online portfolios both extensive, impressive and educational.

In reviewing their portfolios you will see extraordinary work which has been achieved by photographers in conditions that are both ideal and less than ideal. Their efforts are to be admired.

If you are a photographer and would like to have your name added -or- know of someone that should be - please let me know.

200pockets.com is an editorial photography archive which originally showcased ebay auction photography (1999-2002).

The portfolio now includes live event music photography (2005-present) which seeks to chronicle the working artists.

I have photographed a wide range of bands from the well known such as Flipper (with Krist Novoselic), No Alternative, The Angry Samoans,The Generators, and Dead Kennedys to the more esoteric ... (The Legendary Stardust Cowboy, Beachkrieg) ... to those just starting out in their careers.
