    Kathy ("Photo Kathy")'s Interests
GeneralLocal music and supporting local bands. ~~ Photography of local bands (see www.holdstilldetroit.com). ~~ Improving my general photography skills. ~~ Bowling (league 13yrs and countin'). ~~ Watching hydroplane race boats (see my pics in the photo galleries at www.gold-cup.com. ~~ Cooking (when I have time!!).

MusicRock n roll, baby! Some metal too, as long as it's not all screaming. No pop divas or country either, thank u very much.
MoviesDrama and suspense. Believable science fiction, not the fantasy type. Almost Famous!
TelevisionI don't watch a whole lot these days, and I don't have cable. Series I've followed at one time or another are ER, Third Watch, Friends, Will & Grace, Sex and the City, The Dead Zone, The 4400. And I love my crime dramas-! Law and Order, CSI, Without a Trace, Cold Case.
BooksSame taste in books as in movies: science fiction, drama/suspense, cop/legal mysteries, some historical fiction too. Anne Rice, Stephen King.

About me:



I am on myspace for the Detroit local music scene and to find bands who would like to hire me for a photo shoot.

I have no intention of using myspace as a dating service, hookup service, or a place to find IM buddies or cross-country penpals. If your message sounds like that is what you are after, or if you ask to "chat" or email you offline, you are just wasting your time. Now, if you write me and actually have something intelligent to say, I will write you back.

I do not add everyone. I am not a "friend collector" nor a "new music collector". Please write to me before/when requesting to add me as a friend, especially if I've never actually met you in person. If I don't hear from you, I won't add you.


Band Photography

I've been shooting local bands since 2003 - live shoots and promo sessions.

***Rates -- What does it cost?***
I charge an affordable flat rate for live shows, and a low hourly fee for location promos. Rates and other info are posted on my web site www.holdstilldetroit.com. If you like what you see, let's book a shoot!



When I'm Not On-Line

My day job is an engineering technical writer. (Tech writers are the people who create instruction manuals, servicing guides, software help files.) ~~ In my spare time I take photos for numerous local bands and the annual APBA Gold Cup hydroplane races. In general, I don't do wedding photos. (I've shot four. I might consider another for the right situation.)

Who I'd like to meet:
People who are interested in finding out what's happening with some of the best rock bands that the Detroit music scene has to offer. Bands in need of gig or promo photos.

I do not add everyone. I am not a "friend collector" nor a "new music collector". I am on myspace for the Detroit local music scene and to find bands who would like to hire me for a photo shoot.

The Cab Driver and the Nun:

A cab driver picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won't stop staring at her.

She asks him why he is staring and he replies, "I have a question to ask you but I don't want to offend you."

She answers: "My dear son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."

"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me." She responds,

"Well, let's see what we can do about that: #1, you have to be single and #2 you must be a Catholic."

The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I am single and I'm Catholic too!"

The nun says, "OK, pull into the next alley." He does and the nun fulfills his fantasy.

But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying. "My dear child." said the nun, "Why are you crying?"

"Forgive me sister, but I have sinned. I lied, I must confess, I'm married and a I'm a Baptist."

The nun says, "That's OK, I am on the way to a Halloween party, and my name is Kevin."


Have a fun Saturday. xoxo
