I had the pleasure of photographing Anthens vs Sparta for the cover the San Antonio Current
. These guys music is VERY interesting and well worth a listen
. I’m looking forward to getting to see these guys play live sometime soon.

SXSW has come and gone. This year I decided to take it easy and only work for a few publications - New York Times, Chinashop, and the Austin Chronicle. (RS emailed on Thursday, but at that point it was too late for me to change my shooting schedule). The highlight of my week was photographing Shepard Fairey (Obama/Hope poster fame) at the Red Bull Moon Tower. I wish I’d had more time to work on a portrait after, but I didn’t want to overwhelm him. Next time I think I’ll just keep shooting until my subject gets upset and storms off set. :) I also really enjoyed seeing Nakia play at the Austin Muisc awards and the set the Decemberist played at Stubbs was cool.

Yesterday I had the fun task of photographing the Do512 team for their SXSW press release (attached below). For the record photographing with lots of strobes and no assistant on a windy day is a pain. If you haven’t already RSVP’d for the huge day party Do512 is hosting at the compound hurry up and do so. You wouldn’t want to miss the chance to hang out with me and drink Lonestar. More info about the party below.
