Portrait Session: Aidrien Wilkins

Local musician extroardinaire, WWU professor, and Prime Time Band lead guitarist Aidrien Wilkins and I got together for some formal portrait stuff and I had a blast getting some shots of this music wizard and his magical instrument, and if you get the chance to see him or his band perform, don't miss it!

Snowingham

Evan Bang put it best when he told me Bellingham with snow is like a whole other world.  And with the right light, and some nice bright snowflakes, a spacey looking starry scene unfolded and it seemed the planets aligned just enough for us to get some snow to hit a rail he had been scoping out.  With a solid rope, 4WD and a good grip, a quick lurch got the guys going fast enough for a nice rail session.  First rail shots of the year! So I'm a little behind, but hopefully make up for it with these,

Now go do something in the snow besides crash into curbs, like most things in life, as soon as its gone, you'll want it back.

Allen Stone and opener Kris Orlowski

On a current personal assignment covering northwest music, I had a blast on WWU's campus catching the funkiest concert I've seen lately by Allen Stone and openers Kris Orlowski and Eclecticity in the VU multi purpose room.  Catch Allen's performance on Conan and Kris's music and Eclecticity here.

Brothers from Another, Dyno Jamz, Scribes and Blue Scholars

A show to remember for Bellingham hip-hop, a ton of killer artists came to Western and filled the MPR to capacity.  With enough beats to start a factory and some new stuff from everyone, The Blue Scholars finished their tour in style at what they said was where they feel most 'at home.'

With Brothers from Another, Dyno Jamz, Scribes, and The Blue Scholars themselves, I had a great time watching some crowd surfing, and hip hop legends in the making.
