Musician Portraits

Probably the best way to take more musician portraits is to post musician portraits. At least then, people know what you're doing. Posting on here isn't my favorite thing, but it's a good discipline when I do it. One thing I'm always thinking about is what makes this person unique? I may get it wrong sometimes, but I can always find something. Here are some unique people:

It's been a while...

 I haven't posted on here in a very, very long time. Honestly, I don't see much point in it. There are a million social media sites and places people can digest content much more rapidly, but this has been here since the beginning of what I would call my formal photography career. So it deserves a little attention from time to time. 

One major change is that I've stopped using thatverynextthing and started just using Jon Karr (jonkarr.com obviously). So my SEO isn't quite what it used to be, but I'm actually busier than ever. My best work is ahead.

To catch up, here's a photo of me (with a beard) lifting a light for a commercial video shoot. If you've lived in Nashville for any amount of time, you know Bart Durham. This is some BTS of me filming an ad for them, which is possibly the pinnacle of Nashville Advertising. 

I've also grown my chops as a music photographer and my band photography can also be seen at jonkarr.com so check it out there!
