Canyon City

May 9, 2010

My friends in Canyon City have a played a bunch of shows in the last little while and I was there for a couple of them. Here are pictures from a Jam, Guelph and Peterborough show. Half the band just took off to Yukon for the summer, so there won’t be any more shows until the fall. Check them out HERE

Doomriders!

April 19, 2010

So it’s been a while, but I finally got around to updating this blog. Doomriders opened for Red Sparowes on Saturday night at the Garrison. I’m really happy I got to see them for their first Toronto show. Here are a bunch of photos that I liked as well as a video I recorded at the bottom.

My friend Shehzaad and I started an online publication a couple of years ago called Signal. We went on hiatus for a while and recently decided to bring it back. We made some layout changes and we’ve been keeping the site updated on a regular basis with interviews and photos. Take a look HERE.

old habits die young

February 15, 2010

Back in December I took some still photos during the filming of Arietta’s ‘Old Habits Die Young’ video. Originally I wasn’t going to post them until the video was complete, but I was given the OK to put them up. I’ll put the video up once it’s complete. For now, here are a bunch of photos.

Cave In + Narrows

February 5, 2010

Back in November I went to New York with a couple of friends to see Cave In, Narrows, and Trap Them at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn. It was a really good time. Definitely one of best shows I’ve been to in a long time. Scroll down a couple of posts to see the Trap Them photos.

February 4, 2010

So finally I got around to updating this blog. It’s already February and it’s my first post of 2010. Sad. I’ve got a ton of photos to put up here from my trip to NYC back in November, Young Widows in December, Arietta’s video shoot, etc. I’ve also added a bunch of photos to my portfolio site that you can check out here. For now, here are a few photos of Trap Them when they played with Narrows and Cave In at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.

Mastodon

November 9, 2009

One of the first concerts I ever took photos at was Mastodon at the Kool Haus in May 2007. It was when they came to town with These Arms Are Snakes, Against Me!, and Curisve. I like these photos much better. Here are a bunch from the same night as Converge.

Next week I’m shooting the AP Fall Ball Tour for Alternative Press and then on the 18th I’m going to New York to see Cave In with Narrows. I’m super excited for that show and I’m hoping to get some really good pictures. Stay tuned!

Converge

November 3, 2009

A couple of weeks ago I shot Converge at the Sound Academy. They are currently on tour with High On Fire, Mastodon, and Dethklok. Converge are one of my favorite bands, so it was really cool to finally get a chance to take photos of them. I saw them in Buffalo in 2008, but I didn’t bring my camera. I hope they come back to Toronto for a headlining show. You should also pick up the new album if you haven’t done so already. Here are a bunch of photos:

Arietta

In my last post I mentioned shooting promo’s for Arietta. I did a bunch of individual shots that I’m really happy with, but for now, here some group shots:
