Jaap Welcome Celebration

Onstage

Backstage

Dressing Room


Hello all,
I got to shoot the Welcome Celebration for Jaap van Zweden for the Symphony the other night. The full set of images are located here.
It was very cool, as they performed Verdi's Reqiuem. Since I had to be backstage, I only got to hear snippets, but it was incredibly powerful. Plus, the style of Jaap van Zweden is thrilling in itself, as he is very dramatic, fluid and loaded with energy. Those conducting attributes make him very fun to photograph, and I had the chance to get a few of those and some more behind the scenes. I hope you enjoy.

Photoshelter

Well,
I wanted to post a ton of images up, but my schedule has gotten crazy again.
However, here are two shots from the Gold Bow Dinner I did for the Dallas Symphony. Everyone attending got to eat onstage at The Meyerson, which is certainly a unique experience. I now have images from this shoot as well as many others on my photoshelter site . It is a very cool online tool, that also works as a digital archive, something I've needed for a while. More images will be going up there soon, or at least I hope so. And of course, there is always my website, which is a magical place as well. Go check everything out, then go back and do it again. Take it easy,
