Rico Rox!

I love being a photographer. And I love being a musician. And I really love it when these two worlds have a chance to come together. And I rub-a-dub-dub love it when I find other musicians and performers who are looking to have awesome images of themselves looking their best and most rockin'est! (It's a real word, I promise.) My pal Rico Molden plays bass in the amazing local cover band, 90 Proof (of course, so do I...but that's beside the point). He posed for me recently before a gig in Riverside, CA. We only had a few minutes to catch what little ambient light was still in the sky before Rico and the rest of 90 Proof took the stage before a packed Friday night crowd at Lake Alice Trading Co. I mixed the setting sunlight with my speedlite to get some edgy and industrial looking pictures. I even incorporated the headlights of a car into a few shots to enhance the urban feel.

I hope you enjoy these images. Thanks to Rico for the use of his likeness!

As a reminder, I welcome your comments. And if you are a musician, DJ, actor, performing artist, or someone looking to have their musical side portrayed - I am available to create an amazing experience for you! Feel free to get in touch : )
