Anniversary throwback

Well well. It’s been a long time since I’ve been here. Life has had me plenty busy though I have not forgotten you all. I’m actually here today to bring you all a little something special. You see, yesterday marked my three year anniversary of shooting live music. While I have only had my Rebel a few months longer, shooting live music is my bag. It’s my thrill, my drug. To see the artists on stage, their live and passion for what they do, I get lost in the moment. I get lost in the feeling. (more…)

Front Row

In my experience as a photographer, there are times when you positively love the images you capture, and other times, not so much. This particular time out, I’m very much loving this set. I don’t know whether it was the lighting this time around or the fog machines, perhaps just how good I was feeling; I am insanely pleased with these photos. It of course helps that the majority of them are of my favorite local band.  (more…)

Spark a Rebelution

Hello friends and fans alike. It’s been some time since I’ve last posted an entry and I’m hoping you can forgive me. If you know me personally or read my personal blog www.queenmaryxo.com you’ll know I’ve recently suffered a death of someone very close to me. Although she was a great supporter of my work, I haven’t had it in me to get behind the lens. For the last two weeks I’ve been fighting with myself to snap out of it (no pun intended), yet it wasn’t as easy as that. (more…)

Upstream

Getting together my favorite shots for this particular post was a bit difficult.  I was shooting at a rather slow aperture to compensate for the low light and there was a lot of great shots I couldn’t use on account of them being too blurry. I wish I could already afford to upgrade my camera. However, for now I will just have to make do with what I got. Realistically speaking I will more than likely not be upgrading for about another year. In the meanwhile, I will have more time honing my skills and practice, practice, practice. (more…)

Everywhere, yet nowhere

I haven’t been taking many photographs lately. Quite honestly is been hard to find the time. It’s as if there’s never enough hours in the day. Still, I have to be behind the lens. It’s a hunger of mine that must be fed. So I do take Artemis with me everywhere I go. This weekend she went along with me to an Urban Rebel show at Nowhere Lounge on South Beach. She loves them as I do and I’m sure my pictures are proof of that. (more…)

Moonchine Bistro

I had the pleasure of going to Moonchine Bistro and Asian Lounge on Friday to watch my friends at Urban Rebel rock the place out. I was actually really excited to go to this show because I had heard it was an intimate venue. While most of the venues they perform at are considered small venues, this particular location was very small. (more…)

Fishoutawata

You could say I’ve been burning the candle at both ends this week. While work has been insane with preparing to move offices, upgrading computers and still keeping up with the flood of work that is my day to day, I’ve also been burning the midnight oil working on my photos from this last weekend at Fishoutawata at Tobacco Road here in downtown Miami.

Rising to the top

This weekend I had the pleasure of going to the premiere of Urban Rebel’s new video, Awake. Once again, Urban Rebel did not disappoint. In fact, they raised the bar all the more. As for this queen, she was smart enough to bring her camera along to capture some of that energy. You see, though I’m not  a professional photographer, I fancy myself UR’s personal photographer in a way and I am thankful for their appreciation of my photos. I love capturing their passion and the love they have for their art. I believe that is what truly shines through. I am also glad I can share it with you, readers. On that note I bring to you my favorite shots of evening. I present to you, Urban Rebel at the video premiere event for Awake.

First flight

Why hello there. I realize its been a few days since I’ve stopped by to share anything new with you. I have however been biding my time until now. The reason? I had waited for the arrival of my new lens. I am now the owner of a 17-55mm 2.8 Canon. Granted, it’s not an L lens and I will not be able to use it when I upgrade my Rebel in the future. However, being that the upgrade is a ways away both financially and in experience, I wanted to step up my walk around lens while at the same time gaining a bit more performance when I take in our local music scene.

Music state of mind

Friday night was an incredible night for me at Will Call in downtown Miami. After a some planning, I got some friends of mine together to go out and see Urban Rebel. Not only do they now have new fans, once again they left me wanting more. I positively love going to see them perform.Their shows never disappoint. Not only do they have fun and love what they do, they have an insane amount of energy and it is nothing short of contagious. They even had a guest performer join them on stage, Coz Canler of “The Romantics”. The whole vibe was amazing. I found myself not being able to put my camera down. So much so, that I was tempted to switch over to video and just film the remainder of the show. I had even a more difficult time picking my favorite shots of the evening. They were having so much fun up there. (more…)
