Danny Wirick: Live at Tommy's Place!

You may recognize Danny from my USC Thornton School of Music Popular Music Showcase Performace pictures. Danny is a freshman Popular Music major at USC and a great friend of mine. Over parent's weekend in October, Danny had his own show on campus at Tommy's Place. His band is made up of mostly of Popular Music majors, with two of his gospel choir friends as backup vocalists, and even me as a guest tambourine player! hehe :-) 

Included in the show was guest vocalist Liliana De Los Reyes, Pianist Nolan Frank, Drummer Dan Vanchieri, Bassist Brian Jones, Guitarists Devon Eisenbarger and Anna Schulze, and backup vocalists Courtnie Henson and Becca Berry. All of these musicians are INSANELY talented!

Here are some images from the wonderful show!

This picture below is my favorite!

Love this picture of the glowing afro!

It's Performance Time!

I LOVE USC! I've made some awesome friends, some of which are in USC Thornton School of Music's Popular Music Program. As part of their performance class, they had 2 performances this semester as a midterm and a final- how cool is that? I attended and photographed both events- check out these amazingly talented musicians pursuing their passions as they rock out onstage!

Check back tomorrow for more on some of these awesome musicians!

USC Headshots!

I've had the pleasure of photographing headshots for a few amazing people while I've been at USC!

My floormate and close friend Patrick is a theatre major and aspiring actor in Los Angeles. He needed last-minute headshots for a submission, so I met him between classes for a quick 10 minute headshot shoot! It was the most spontaneous, quick shoot I've ever done, but I'm so pleased with the results! Check out some shots below:

Here are quick shots of other friends, Chris and Blair, who needed headshots of them in USC colors. Fight on!

The Ruden Sisters!

I met up with twins Taylor and Paige Ruden at the Naval Academy to photograph their senior pictures. The shoot turned into quite the stunning fashion shoot! Check out some of my favorite images of these gorgeous girls:
