Back in October I had the wonderful opportunity to shoot two of the OP tour shows, one for myself and one for Friends or Enemies. The show in LA was the one I shot for friends or enemies and with a busy November and December behind us, the pictures are finally up on FOE so here they are! It was great getting to shoot all of these bands again and none of them failed to deliver. It was also a blast at the show getting to hang out with all the bands and talk shop with a few of them. Pete Wentz made a special guest appearance with Cobra Starship for “Pete Wentz is the Only Reason We’re Famous” during the photographers’ pit time, which was a blast, as always. Enjoy and let me know what you think! Also, don’t forget all of these can be requested for prints and bands if you want to use any of these, feel free to shoot me an email here!

Sierra Kusterbeck, VersaEmerge @ OP Presents…, Club Nokia LA
Enjoy a few selections queued up from the Los Angeles show of the OP Presents tour leading up to the full lineup of shots! These are a few months old, so sorry for the delay, they just went up on FOE :)
Blake and Sierra from VersaEmerge perform an acoustic set on Santa Monica Beach.
Had the wonderful opportunity to catch Blake and Sierra from VersaEmerge’s acoustic set just north of Santa Monica Pier on the beach beside a lifeguard stand and spent about two hours listening to old songs, new songs and some amazing cover songs (some funny ones too!) I had a blast and took some great pictures. Here are some from the set to be followed by some quick portraits that I shot of them after the set.
Senior Portraits, Erica, SBHS ‘10
Did some fun senior portraits for portraiture last session for my friends Erica and Tiffany and I thought I’d post them for you (or anyone locally interested in portraits) to see! Here’s the first batch, Erica.
GK tour in San Francisco was off the hook. I got to spend some great time with those kids from Hey Monday, hang with my fellow photographer Amy Wolff and my “boss” Justin of SupJustin.com. Good hangs and an even better show. The views from the balcony at the Regency are phenomenal and security was amazing. The show was phenomenal and everyone killed it—the girls in the crowd set a new bra-toss record of 75 bras thrown on stage during All Time Low’s set and we photographers in the pit were even showered with underwear! Definitely an experience that tops all of the shows that I’ve shot so far. I hope you enjoy my pictures as much as I enjoyed shooting them!

Glamour Kills in Anaheim was great because it was my first time finally getting to shoot in the House of Blues, which was great despite some hitches (Duncan Johnson > Everything, just so you know). I had a blast shooting it and got to shoot with some friends from the pit at past shows (check out Kayla Merrill if you ever get the chance, another fantastic So Cal shooter for Friends or Enemies). Great performances by Friday Night Boys, Hey Monday and We The Kings as well as headliners All Time Low. Great shooting all of these guys again and also getting to shoot WTK for the first time as a whole.
