lsg spot – Year in Pictures 2012 (National)

lsg spot
Year in Pictures – National

12.27.2012

A friend of mine (Mona RAWKS!) on Facebook sent me a link to a compilation of images by a photographer she knows.  She suggested I put one together as well.  I figured this task would be fairly simple.  However, if you have taken as many pictures as I have this year, I found it to be daunting.  However, I managed to run through some of my favorite shows and then pulled out my favorite picture from each.  Honestly, I could have done this all day but I went with my first gut feeling about a shot and went with it.

So here are my favorite photographs from national acts I had the honor of shooting this year.  I am also compiling my favorite local bands as well, since I love them too.

This compilation…is a labor of love.  Just as a song is to a musician, these are my babies…my heart.  I hope you enjoy them.

It seems explorer alphabetizes them so I’ll go with that.  I give you…

Lisa Sanchez Gonzalez – lsg Original

Lover of music and the visual arts, Lisa Sanchez Gonzalez is the insanity behind lsg original photography. lsg specializes in artist and performer photography. She’s had the honor of photographing national bands such as Weezer, Snoop Dogg, A Simple Plan, Paramore, Whitesnake, Wye Oak, and The Antlers along with countless local bands and performers.

Hailing from Hartford, CT, Lisa is a life- long music connoisseur. Growing up, her mother exposed her to everything from The Stones to Simon and Garfunkel to Earth, Wind, and Fire to Loretta Lynn…and everything in between. No genre was left unexplored in her vinyl collection. She saw her first concert at 14…Rod Stewart at the (then called) Hartford Civic Center. Thirty years later, it’s still her favorite pastime.

Lisa has two kids (grown!) and a day job. Her loves of music and photography have melded into a second career. And her love of CT keeps her promoting and pushing for local artists and performers. Lisa spends the greater part of her free time seeing and shooting live bands, performers, and artists and art work…and purchasing vinyl!
