[Concert] The Black Keys at the The Crystal Ballroom - 8.5.10

Hi everyone!

As our Wedding 2010 season winds down -- no more weddings shoots, just editing  and finishing up album designs :) -- we are getting back in to our Concert Photography shoots.

This is exciting, since we love music and great shows tend to come to Portland during the fall/winter months.

We have a separate web site for all of our concert photography, ranging from great local bands to major label  artists. Be sure to bookmark that site and to check it often! Lots of new goodies to look through, on an ongoing basis :)

This past October 5th, I had the opportunity to photograph The Black Keys, on their second night, at the Crystal Ballroom. What an amazing show! Full house (sold out both nights) and great lighting on stage, as always.

I was granted a photo pass while my friend Carrie has the press pass, with which she got to enjoy the show and then write about it on our affiliate web site: Melophobe.

Here is a Sneak Peek of the show.

Here are links to the full set of images as well as Carries eloquent, cynical and sincere review!

See the FULL SET of my images from this show on our Passions Site HERE!

Thanks for looking! :)
