Reflections
July 20, 2008 by David Bergman
Last week I drove out to New Jersey to do a portrait of Staind.
The band is on tour with 3 Doors Down and I actually got lost getting to the venue. I arrived there much later than I wanted and knew I wouldn’t have too much time with the guys.
I did the obvious photo first in front of Aaron Lewis‘s tour bus. I like the reflection of the trees in the windows.
They thought I was nuts, but then I asked them to crouch down near the bus’ tire so I could photograph them in the hubcap. If you look closely, you can see me behind the camera in the middle.
Driving time: 4 hours.
Shoot time: 10 minutes.
Sneaking myself into a photo with a band that’s sold 15 million albums? Priceless…
that’s awesome! were they cool? i love them.
Great writing…“sneaking myself into a photo….priceless”
Oh yea….
The photos and techniques are brilliant as well. thank you so much for sharing!
