KenElevenShadows Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I photographed some night portraits for Bloomfield Machine, a band masterminded by Brian Kassan (Chewy Marble/The Wondermints). Cool January evening in Joshua Tree National Park, Mojave Desert. Great night of creativity. I wrote an article about photographing surreal night portraits as well for Photofocus.

Thanks. The band really wanted them to be surreal, with a sort of darkness to it (mood, not the fact that it's night time). It was a lot of fun to do! I stuck these up on my website as well. I've gotten two inquiries about photographing others since I've begun sharing them, so I figured I'd see what happened if I wrote an Photofocus article about it (forthcoming) and put it on my website.

Good way to monetize your passion!!! Cameras, lenses and such aren't cheap and shooting creepy band photos sounds like fun compared to shooting weddings. I hated shooting weddings, 3 or 4 in and I was done forever... Quote It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is.

Oh yeah, definitely. I've photographed three weddings. If I can help it, there won't be a fourth. And you're right, this was infinitely more fun than shooting weddings. They liked that it was dark and weird and surreal and had fun doing it. And I was in my natural photography element.
