To document Van Halen’s 2015 tour with David Lee Roth. I had no idea that it would be their last.
Eddie Van Halen was such a dynamic and influential guitar player. I wanted to capture him in his fun-loving zone, ideally complete with his legendary wall of amplifiers as a backdrop.
I was quite successful with the batch of images I ended up with that night. Fans have since contacted me to purchase prints, and my work was shown on the band’s biggest fan site.
Documenting Europe in the Europe in the winter.
Most photos of Venice showcase the bright blue skies/water and the crowds visiting St. Mark’s Square. I wanted to show off the quiet cold winter evening of a place normally associated with Summer Vacations.
The light was perfect that evening, and the glow of the porch/dock lights on the water sells the image, in my opinion. A lonely but cozy feeling. It started to snow about 10 minutes after taking this photo.
