I will be making the following changes to the 200pockets.com editorial photography archive.

WHICH EVENTS WILL YOU PHOTOGRAPH?

I will continue to photograph the weekly Hotel Utah Monday Night Open Mic w/host Brendan Getzell, (facebook link) (website - http://theutah.org) on a regular basis. I will post in the Facebook group when I plan to be on site.

I will also try by best to provide photographic coverage to those artists with a signed artists/model release on file with me (see below).

TO THOSE WITH A SIGNED RELEASE ON FILE

Photographing your shows will remain a priority for me. As of this date I hold over 100 signed artists/model releases. I follow your upcoming shows and appearances via a embedded Google calendar.

Choosing which shows I will be able to afford to photograph will be difficult. I will seek to balance –

travel costs (petrol, tolls, parking)
show frequency (how often does this artist perform?)
photographer friendly venue? Is photography permitted?
and my schedule

If you have a specific upcoming show that you would like me to photograph – please let me know and I will try my best to accommodate you.

I hope you will consider performing at the Hotel Utah Open Mic, San Francisco where I am in residence.

Limited availability to take on new projects. Will try to photograph live music events of those w/signed releases on file ... dependent on my schedule.

LIST OF PREFERRED VENUES

Due to close proximity, lighting conditions, where I have been most successful photographically, ease of parking, photographer friendly & signed venue releases on file.
