best-of-2015-papeo-1

Nutley, NJ, MY Office, 12.31.2015 – I take a look back at my year and struggle with putting together a “Best of” post for my music photography. I hate “Best of” posts only because I don’t like judging myself. Best is a strong word. I would much rather call this post “My Personal Favorite Music Photography Photos” since really that’s what it is. These are photos I connected to, no matter how technically sound they are. They are moments captured in photos and my attempt to bring you to a show you missed. Or to sell you on going to the show the next time the artist is around.
