So, I really think it’s important to vary your creative endeavors to keep inspiration in all areas of life going.

With that being said, here’s something a little different than the normal wedding stuff I do. Dusty Saxton is an awesome drummer and close friend for about 4 years. He’s a super motivated passionate musician who’s worked really hard to get to where he is. I see HUGE things for him in the future that he is creating for himself. He asked me to take a few shots of his drums and him playing as well as some portraits for his site. He’s got some killer endorsements by Vic Firth, Gretsch, Sabian, Gibraltar, Evans, and is currently playing with Brandon Rhyder, as well as others.

This was super fun to shoot and Part 2 of the portraits will be done soon, which I am even more stoked on. He gave me free creative range and it’s awesome when you can have an awesome connection with someone that can trust you to just do your own creative thing while they are doing theirs. ;)

Do what you love, and do it OFTEN. Live your dream and share your passion. Life is about the people you meet, and the things you create with them. :)
