Special thanks to the following, in no particular order...

Sebastian Bach. When you were at the most critical juncture in your career, you took a chance on a nobody with a camera and let him point a lens at you. Anyone that knows artists and how they work, knows it's critical that they be presented in a way that they believe is positive.  Let's face it, nobody wants to look bad. On a frigid and dark night in Cannon Falls Minnesota, you opened yourself to possibly looking bad. Someone who had never photographed an artist before was taking a chance. Those pictures ended up in Rolling Stone, Metal Edge, SPIN and Alternative Press just weeks later. The rest, as they say, is history. I thank you for the experience.

Frank Hannon. Taking an interest and recognizing some semblence of talent. Along with Brian Wheat, being the first artists to throw out the industry standard 'first three songs' rule of live music photography and allow me to capture the entire show. Ross Halfin is right... you can't get anything worthwhile in those first three songs. The best shots come later.  

Chip Ruggieri, Jennifer Farhood and Jeff Albright. Thanks for always being on top of things and always having things run smoothly. The fact  that you all do your job so well, makes my job so much easier.
