Devil's Dungeon | Nashville Haunted House Photography |

And it's true! Nashville's best haunted house (I have nothing to compare it to, but they tell me it's the best ) is located in the basement of Matt Mikulla's apartment complex. His porch overlooks the exit. They come out feeling a sense of relief that it's over, and that's when a chainsaw wielding, skeleton faced guy chases them through the parking lot. We hung out on Matt's porch all night sipping on cocktails and watching this dude chase screaming kids from one end of the parking lot to the other. I laughed my ass off every time. I don't know why I thought it was so funny. Even after seeing it happen a good 10-15 times, I still cracked up. Great time and great haunted house. Check it out: Devil's Dungeon

Vernal, UT | Nashville Nature Photography |

Last week I worked with Dean Dixon in Vernal, UT. The job was an ad campaign for a Lifepoint Hospital. All-in-all the shoot for the hospital went perfectly...and seeing as we were in Utah (with nothing to do), we set out and shot some scenic overlooks. SONP Scenic Overlook Nature Photographer. A term Dean coined...I can't claim it. Here's some of the shots:

"An old white-haired guy with more yesterdays than tommorows." | Nashville Political Photography |


Bill Clinton is a badass! Can I say that? He's a badass? And the Tennessee Democrats are badasses for having him come to Nashville and speak at the Jackson Day event. Mikey the Lip (AKA Michael Krouskop) Called me up and asked if I would help him cover the event. He had me at "Clinton's gonna be there". Since Clinton's speech last Saturday, I've been obsessed with what his life's been like outside the spotlight of politics. If you're interested, check out the article "Bill Clinton, Public Citizen" by George Saunders. It's an impressive article. Unfortunately it's not online, but you can read it in "The Best American Non-Required Reading 2008".

The New Familiars... | Nashville Music Photography |

...were the best new band I heard at the Master Musicians Festival. They play a brand of folk-rock that is completely their own, which seems increasingly rare these days. Great guys and great songwriters. Check them out here. Below are some quick portraits I took of the band while at the festival.

The Master Musicians Festival | Nashville Music Photography |

The Master Musicians Festival takes place in Somerset, KY...Every year this outdoor festival brings in some of the best blues/rock/string-band music in the country. WELL worth your time if you are in the area or up for a summer road-trip. And yes, those are the world famous Felice Brothers in the last five photos...
