I recently had the opportunity to assist Jenni Girtman with Atlanta Event Photography on an assignment at a hospital/ hospice/ nursing home. She was shooting while I set up the lighting and posed as a stand in to check the lighting. The images will be used for the hospitals marketing purposes. It was a great assignment and I look forward to working with Jenni and Atlanta Event Photography more in the future.
If you haven’t taken the time to hear what this artist is kicking out you need to. She began writing songs at the age of thirteen after her parents separated. She was classically trained in several instruments including cello and clarinet, however she taught herself a lot of what she knows in sequencing, music engineering, sampling and production. Her music contains manipulated sounds of all kinds to create something very unique and moving for her audience. I have heard some say she is the next Tori Amos and I can see the resemblance. The sold out show at the Variety Playhouse was full of energy. I was especially impressed with how mush she spoke to the audience and carried on conversations with them, but when the time came for her to start playing the audience was so respectful of the talent, otherwise they would find themselves getting looped into the song and Imogen would call them out for it. She had a great attitude and presence on stage. This show is one you don’t want to miss, but you may find it hard to get a ticket. Imogen is currently has eighteen shows left on her tour and eleven of those shows are sold out. The New York show was moved to a bigger venue and sold out again. This one is HOT and I have a feeling she has a lot more steam to push out there for us. 
CatMax Photography was published in The Atlantan for the first time this month. The event was the High Museum Wine Action Kick-Off Party that I shot a couple months back. To see the previous blog on this event CLICK HERE.
It was such an awesome day for an outdoor festival and everyone knew it, because it was packed. Some people were enjoying all the different chili that different groups had made. Some were enjoying the different bluegrass bands playing while some people checked out the art tents. Children played on the swings and in the playground area. The Humane Society was there with some sweet puppies that were looking for homes. I can’t wait till next year, what a great event!

Music Go Round is a local used music store located approximately thirty minutes from the city that buys and sells used music gear of all kinds. I was in there store recently shooting for their website and the place was packed and stacked with some great gear at awesome prices! Also, while I was there I spoke with Robb Kuhlman who teaches guitar lessons in the store. He has been teaching and playing guitar for 20 plus years. He truly enjoys what he does and it shows. They also have instructors in percussion, brass instruments and keyboard. If you haven’t been by to see these guys be sure you stop by, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!

The Chamber of Horrors is an experience! I have been to a lot haunted houses and Chamber of Horrors was at the top with Trails of Terrors this year. Although, I do miss the Silo X days, this haunted house had a little different spin on it that I couldn’t quit get past in my mind. If you haven’t had a chance to drop by and check it out be sure to put it on your list!
