My first love in the creative field is music.  I have been playing percussion since high school.  I still cannot live a day without music being played.  It represents my mood, inspiration and creativity.  When I get the opportunity to capture images for bands I get super excited!  I understand that "COOL" factor they want.  Like all commercial styled sessions we talk extensively on what they have in mind and how I think we should accomplish there goals.  Some goals are too much and I have to bring my #SimpleCleanBeautiful theme into action.  I love images that look like it could be in a magazine or your album cover.

The cool factor is how you look at the image.  Do you notice anything within the black background?  Look at it from a different angle on your screen.  Can you see the members faintly larger in the background?  Cool huh!
