Saw a really sweet gallery @indiesleaze posted yesterday of some Polaroids I shot between 2008-2010, around the time I was just out of high school, moved to Austin, and quickly realized that live music, photography, and focusing on these two things that affected my life so deeply/gave it a purpose was something I wanted to spend time doing. 🤓🥲 What started off with just going to shows for fun and sharing pics on Flickr went to a few people giving me a chance and the motivation to keep pursuing this. Gorilla Vs. Bear, Austinist, Soundcheck Mag, Stereogum, the Austin/Red River music community, I’m forever grateful. Here are a few of the Polaroids that were shared, as well as a few personal favorites, from that three year period. ❤️ 1.
