Will and Sandrine Lee came by to do a shoot last week. . Just in case you did not know, Will is the bass player in the CBS Orchestra and the Fab Faux. I got the opportunity to shoot a portrait of Will and Sandrine together. Sandrine is an amazing photographer. She shoots a lot in the music business and advertising world. It was great to have her at the shoot and to snap a portrait of her and Will together. Take a look at some of her work at sandrinelee.com. After the shoot Will and I went to see the Funky Meters at Brooklyn Bowl. It was a fun night of creativity and great music. To find out all the news and information about Will click on willlee.com

The Funky Meters played the last three nights at Brooklyn Bowl. It was great to see them perform. Seeing George playing with Art Neville again was really fun. I wanted to share a couple of the images I shot of George while I was in New Orleans for 3 weeks in October. I was there shooting for my Instrumenthead project. George has always been supportive of me and my photography. If you want to hear some of George’s music or learn more about him click on http://www.georgeporterjr.com/

I had the opportunity to shoot Buckwheat Zydeco before his gig at BB Kings last friday. We went down into the club and set up the studio in a storage room backstage. He was a pleasure and very accommodating to work with.
.
Buckwheat Zydeco is the stage name of Stanley Dural, Jr. He is one of the few zydeco artists to achieve mainstream success. His music group is formally billed as Buckwheat Zydeco and Ils Son Partis Band, but often they perform as merely Buckwheat Zydeco.
