Most of those pics are very pleasing considering the lighting she had to operate under. I think that the band shots were quite good. What was she using for a camera? You guys look like your having a great time.

If ya'll need some good band pics Jayna does a great job and I highly recommend her!

Slacker, she uses 3 different camera's and I know nothing about them. I'll ask and get back to you.
By the way we shot video of the 2cd set using 5 video camera's. Barry the keyboard player/guitar/harmonica/sound dude/lighting dude is going to put together a video demo out of it

The only thing that would stop me if I were in the area is the way she puts her name in the middle of the photos. Does she actually believe that someone would steal the pictures of a band that they don't know to claim credit for them? It would be much better to put her name in a corner of the photo where it wouldn't distract from the mood the photo creates. Who in the world would rush home to photoshop a picture that means something to a few people to take her name off of it ?

Hmmm. I think I'm going to photoshop her name from the middle of the photos that I downloaded.from your post

My guess is that she did this to help the band. She captured the energy of the show and the photos were clean. Good job!

If you paid her enough, I'm sure she wouldn't mind making her name less conspicuous

Right on Ted. Jayna is my girlfriend and she is an awesome person doing these pics to help the band. All she asked was to put her signature on them and I support her photography mutually!

Slacker, she uses Nikon camera's and she has 3 of them. She has lenses that look funky to me kind of like a T.V. camera. I would have to say she is an artist in concert photography because she made me look good LOL! I must admit I'm a little Biased!

Putting a 'watermark' across photos is not unusual for photographers who are (trying to) make a living at it. If you want un-watermakred pictures, you pay for them.
