Outburn Magazine

Marilyn Manson

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

..November 2004.. ..Roseland Ballroom, New York..

Marilyn Manson, one of the last tours I covered for Outburn Magazine.

Some of the photos remind me of when I photographed Perry Farrell 7 years before.

Was one of the best tours I covered. It felt exciting for me again. Like when I first started shooting tours. When I’m photographing a big performer like Marilyn Manson, the camera seems to move faster.

Was surprised to see how young the crowd was. During the 4th song of the set, the power went out on the mic and amps for about 5 seconds, while they were playing a Depeche Mode cover. Odd thing was no one seemed to notice as the crowd just continued to sway violently back and forth without interruption.

Controlled Bleeding Album Cover

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

..September 2002 New York..

The first album cover I shot for a band called Controlled Bleeding. It’s still my favorite album cover I’ve done. Working with Paul Lemos of Controlled Bleeding has gone well over the years. I’ve shot 5 album covers for them.

I first started working with him when I was hired by Outburn Magazine to do a portrait. It was my first commissioned shot for Outburn back in 1999. I shot a lot of assignments for Outburn until 2006.

Paul has always been open to ideas and using the images as is on the album covers. Not much text or manipulation of the photos. It’s always been photo, Controlled Bleeding, and album title. We’ve always come up with a clear vision of how the artwork matches his music. I’ve never been disappointed with the product.

I shot this photo years before. Right after graduating college. Shot somewhere along the Potomac River. When Paul saw the photo it was the one he wanted.
