2005-present. The captures I seek are not only those of the live performance; but also the more intimate – humanistic views not often seen – in contemplative thought before taking to the stage, backstage, during soundcheck, in studio, being among friends and fans. [view].
TERESE TAYLOR 16-July-2008. At The El Rio, San Francisco, California.
2006-present. Reportage coverage of the San Francisco bay area open mic scene.
@The Hotel Utah, San Francisco
On Monday nights, I volunteer as a photographer of this weekly open mic with host JJ Schultz - a residency which I cherish and a community that I told dear.
2007-present. Photographing that which I fear the most – driving. After a driver fell asleep at the wheel – their vehicle struck mine in a head on collision. I lay unconscious and when I awoke I was convinced my legs had been crushed as all I could see around me was crushed metal wreckage. I was fortunate – I could still walk. Emergency crews tell me my car (1989 Toyota MR2) saved my life. Despite surgery, I would lose the full use of my right hand and suffer from PTSD.
Special thanks to Klaus Flouride - for driving and for making me feel safe. And to Dave Gursom for his friendship and for keeping me calm.
Maybe. Please take the time to read and understand my photo usage policy -
A policy based on the best practices of the American Society of Media Photographers and Editorial Photographers of which I am a member.
Mindful of the legal constraints of media photography with a sensitivity to meeting the needs of artists, musicians, venues, fans and media.
Please click here to see a list of music photographers sorted by worldwide location.
Some specialize in live event photography where others are formally trained portrait/studio photographers. Each brings their unique approach to music photography as well as a variety of services to bands and musicians. I believe you will find their online portfolios both extensive, impressive and educational.
