Intentionality breeds genuineness.
When you put your heart in your work, you deserve to see it reflected back at you. Using careful preparation tactics combined with a dreamy, refraction based style, kai2eye delivers captivating practical and artistic concert photography. Connection is my lens. Countless elements and artistic choices build the atmosphere and energy at every concert. Preparation is required from all angles: lighting, sound engineering, venue security, styling, set design, and artist intention to name a few. All these elements culminate into a beautiful and heartfelt shared experience. Live music gives us the ability to connect, remember, feel, express, inspire, and create; for those on the stage, behind the stage, and in the crowd. This concept is the foundation of my art style.
When beginning a new project, my first step is always to listen to and feel my collaborator’s music. Watching interviews or speaking directly to my collaborator allows me to gain insight into their perspective, which is imperative to making my best, most meaningful work. Long-exposure, dreamy, color informed shots are my specialty. When working with me, you can expect a mix of this style as well as beautifully practical, clear, full-stage capturing shots. I am always eager to connect and use my creative point of view to express other artists’ labors of love, I work with all genres and am looking to expand my repertoire!
