My name is Sara Kiesling and I'm a 23-year-old music photographer from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I started doing photography as a hobby about two years ago, didn't start taking it seriously until March of 2008, and started doing it professional in July of 2008. In my first year as a photographer (half of which was while working a full-time job) I did promotional photos for over 50 bands, which I am very proud of. I currently shoot with a Canon 5D Mark II (as of May, 2009), a Canon Rebel XTi, a lighting rig consisting of two AlienBees 800's, and I edit using Photoshop CS3. My primary lenses are a Canon 85mm f/1.8 and a Canon 24mm f/2.8. Yes, I do senior pictures! And yes, I do travel for shoots (assuming travel expenses are paid)! Please message me for more information, rates, and availability.
I also design band MySpace profiles. Contact me for more information!
I've spent the past five years working with musicians, and I wouldn't want to live any other life!

I have so many questions to ask you about your photos and the way you do things.
I randomly saw your site when i was looking for a new song to put on my profile.
I read your profile and everything and it just seems really cool what you do
i mean im going to be a senior in high school and i am still kinda undecided
I know i want to do photography but i dont know much about it and im hoping
maybe you will reply and and i can learn a lot of things from you that can help me
make the right choice.
