Choosing To Photograph The Lumineers The Lumineers have come around Cincinnati and Columbus several times. I often thought it would be fun to photograph their concert. Until 2025, I never submitted for credentials to their show. Knowing their unique style, I was expecting nothing short of an amazing show. Was I impressed with the show? […]

The 2024 Billie Eilish concert at Cincinnati’s Heritage Bank Center did not disappoint. I bought these concert tickets for my wife’s birthday, and neither of us had seen Billie before.

On a whim, we went to night 1 of The Rolling Stones concert at Chicago’s Soldier Field. While our seats were on the fifty-yard line, they were all the way at the top. So, the view of the concert was not great, but the view of Lake Michigan and Navy pier made up for it. […]

Getting To Photograph Chris Stapleton In July 2024, I photographed Chris Stapleton at Columbus Ohio’s Schottenstein Center. Cincinnati CityBeat was the publication I was shooting for that night. I’ve had him on my must-photograph list for a long time, so I was excited when they approved me. I hoped for a pit shoot, but I […]
