Day 7-9 so far

Keaton Andrew — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 22:12:11 +0000

click to see larger. We’re in Indiana. It’s cold. 10-12 degrees at night for the most part. The bird was a really, really loud bird at a host home we stayed at. Wonderful place otherwise, but not a great sound to wake up to! Share and Enjoy:

Day Five (oops, skipped two)

Keaton Andrew — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 07:29:51 +0000

Had a few days of not many things to document. We’re in Terre Haute or something right now, western Indiana. Tour is fun, been hanging out with the Nineball and Leo guys. The photo with the pac-man chip is Joe(y) of Nineball. Share and Enjoy:

Day two

Keaton Andrew — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 00:34:00 +0000

We stopped in at RCA Studio B in Nashville and Ocean is Theory demoed some songs. This studio was used to record artists such as Elvis and Dolly Parton back in the day. Share and Enjoy:

Always cool to get a featured photo on a front page of a site. They used my photo of i Rival for the main photo of the “top 20 unsigned bands” compilation promo they have on their site at the moment. Share and Enjoy:

Branding

Keaton Andrew — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 06:23:16 +0000

Your brand is important. You can’t build it up so much that it’s only about you, some people do that and come across as full of themselves. You must make a name of yourself and create an image that sells. Just as you might work in an industry where you create an image for other people in [...]

Oh. Tip number two on life.

Keaton Andrew — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 06:27:17 +0000

Don’t go to art school for photography. If you go to school for anything, go for business. Or accounting. Or anything that will help the business side of things along and help you keep food on your table and a roof above your head. The best way to learn is to go out there and do it. [...]

creativity

Keaton Andrew — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 05:07:26 +0000

Separate yourself from the pack. Create uniquely. Ignore the rules. Break the rules. Rules are there to mold you. Destroy them and create new rules for everyone else, and then destroy them over and over again. Do this and you will be five steps ahead of everyone else. Share and Enjoy:

Chomp and Stomp

Keaton Andrew — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:45:11 +0000

I just got back from my first experience of Cabbagetown's Chomp and Stomp here in Atlanta. For those of you not in the know, you go and spend $5 for a spoon that lets you taste test as much chili as you want from seemingly over a hundred recipes from restaurants, groups and individual people. There's also bands playing for free and plenty of artists set up shop to sell and show off their wares. Simply put, an event not to miss.

Salt Flats in Utah

Keaton Andrew — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 00:44:33 +0000

A few more photos from when I shot at the Utah Salt Flats. One of the neatest places I’ve ever been to, although you can see from the last photo what happens when a wind/salt storm comes your way. I’ve never had my gear in such fierce winds, it was knocking down a stand that [...]

Happpppppy Halloween

Keaton Andrew — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 23:02:57 +0000

My roommate Brad carved a pumpkin. Soooooo I took a photo of it and made it look even creepier than it was! Sadly the brain guts haven’t been taken out and scattered about yet, but it’s still pretty sweet. edit: Added a nice little costume shot. I was a bum and didn’t go to any halloween [...]

Cage the Elephant

Keaton Andrew — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 00:54:11 +0000

They seem to be blowing up, I figured it would happen. Just today for example, I went and checked out a video review from gamespot.com on the game Borderlands and a Cage the Elephant song was playing throughout the entire review. I did a shoot with Cage the Elephant earlier this year, was part of a [...]

The boys of summer

Keaton Andrew — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 17:23:23 +0000

Quick little update, did another shoot with The Boys of Summer on Monday during my visit to Ohio. Shot in the Temple Court area of Mansfield, one of the neatest areas to shoot I’ve come across over the years. When it comes to finding locations, the best ones are where you can get different looks [...]

Updates

Keaton Andrew — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 20:12:32 +0000

1. website refresh. New images and design. 2. I’m back in Atlanta. 3. I really, really, really wish google would use my www.keatonandrew.com domain when searching for “Keaton Andrew”. It instead uses an old, outdated URL. Share and Enjoy:

Colorado Rocky Mountains

Keaton Andrew — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 00:48:10 +0000

Went up in the Colorado Rockies the other day. Did some shots of my friend, Paulo Dourado. The first two shots are some cheap scans from 35mm film, so please excuse the blown highlights. I will be getting them rescanned at a lab. I also have a lot of medium format film shots that I’ll get [...]

Warped so far

Keaton Andrew — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 21:27:00 +0000

I’m sitting in a Panera Bread in Kansas City at the moment. Love this place, great place to get some tea and work on the road. My updates will occur a little less often than I initially thought – partially because of the drives but also because of how I’m mainly shooting film now. It’s been [...]

Kennith – Detroit

This is Kennith “with an i”. He was a Marine and he is from Detroit. I will explain more at a later time! Share and Enjoy:

Keaton Andrew — Wed, 22 Jul 2009 06:47:02 +0000

I haven’t updated this in a while, my bad. Starting the night of the 28th though, I will upload daily. Highlights coming up- I will be following warped tour from 7/28-8/23 minus the Canada dates. I am looking for shoots all days. I am moving to Atlanta this weekend, around the 25th, although I won’t really be back until [...]

Florida

Keaton Andrew — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 15:06:05 +0000

I managed to destroy my phone in the gulf of mexico when taking these photos. I accidentally left it in my hoodie pocket. I was focusing on not letting my camera get wet when I stepped out into the ocean, and well, yeahhh. It was worth it, though! I’ll have more florida photos later. Share and [...]
