Bands Making Music: Black Finger CD Release

Nothing makes me happier than knowing that I've gotten to where I am because I love what I do. When you love what you do, chances are you're going to connect with others who love what they do. The result of these connections is a mutual admiration of support and understanding. Saturday night I got to photograph some of the people who I am honored to know, and grateful to have the opportunity to photograph! Congrats to the members of Black Finger on their album release number THREE! Here are some images from the evening:

Thanks Nik!! Sometimes hard to put words to it. I figure it's best to leave it short and let the photos speak :)
