  1. I submitted a few months ago,was told someone would get back to me and still have not heard anything.

  2. Hey there..Is there a time frame in which you’ll get back to those who submitted an application? :) It’s been a week and I haven’t heard back from you. I’m sure you get alot of submissions so I’m hoping something will come back soon. :)

  3. Hi there! I just sent Josh an e-mail. I am located an hour away from Ft. Wayne Indiana and Chicago. I am in South Bend, IN. So if you all ever need someone to shoot shows in those areas or even Indy let me know.

    I’m headed to ‘Best Live Band of 2013′ ROB ZOMBIE tonight. I e-mailed Josh and hope to hear from him (or anyone) before the show. RZ is ALWAYS an amazing show. If you don’t have anyone shooting it, I have my NIKON IN TOW and am available!

      We actually JUST shot some RZ on Friday and Saturday, and we put requests in for those shows MONTHS ago. A couple of hours prior to the show is not going to yield a photopass I’m afraid.
      That being said, RZ is AMAZING! We’ll take a look at your work and see if there is somewhere else we could plug you in.
