PERMANENT ABILITY // behind the scenes of a band shoot


 
Permanent Ability


Yes, that's a toilet he's standing on--what interesting things photographers ask people to do in the name of art!

The first thrilling, exhausting, and draining band-shoot experience has passed for me.  I helped a collegue and close friend, Huy Truong (Frenetic+Joy photography) work on what may be some of his best work that's been produced.  Permanent Ability--a Sublime-meets-Red Hot Chili Peppers band--was the subject matter.  Truong did the glossy "band shots," while I assisted with lighting and captured the behind the scenes vibe.
