Locals Only Promo Shoot

Another Shoot with The Locals Only Radio crew! What can I say about these guys...they are truly like family to us! If a day goes by when I don't talk to Wes, somehow my day just doesn't feel complete."Goonies Truly Do Never Say Die"

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO WATCH THE VIDEO!

This gives you a look behind the scenes at one of our shoots and also shows you how much fun we had while shooting these guys! Make sure to turn on your sound for this one :)
Our shoot was on-location at FLY LOUNGE in Washington DC. Thank you to Jeremy! The guys are a blast to work with. Always cracking a joke, always listening and respecting everything we say and taking our advice. Truly truly truly could not ask for a better group of guys "Wes,Derek, George, Gonzalo" to work with. We love them and always will.

REDSHIFT PROMO


Had the pleasure of working with another great group of guys!
The band Redshift

Had never met the guys before this shoot, so that always makes it fun to get to know each personality the day of the shoot.
After working with them for 4 hours, by the end of the shoot we feel like we know a little more about each guy.
The funny one, the serious one, etc
.
Minus the ticks that fell from the trees, and minutes away from being stuck in a killer storm...just a couple things that added to the excitement of an on-location shoot with the Snapps ;)

Thanks to the Jake, Sean, Shawn, and Paul for making this a fun shoot!

We looking forward to working with them again in the future!
It will be a fun venture to be on with these guys as we watch their new album come to life :)

We also had the pleasure of presenting the Promo Package to the guys in person! This is always so much fun for us to see their expressions when first laying eyes on the final results!
I'll let the photos speak for themselves on this one ;)

Weekend of CD Releases!

A little behind in the blog updating.
A couple weekends ago we attending two kick-ass shows with two killer bands!
bob and theUnderwater both cd release shows!

bob












These guys welcomed us like we were part of the family.
We all hung out a bit before the show in the green room like always and then they brought the house down with an over the top show!

Thank you to the entire bob band and crew for making us feel so welcomed
Also can not thank you enough for our lifesize poster of our photo of a previous bob crowd!!

Of course what would a bob show be without all of our friends who we truly love like family!
Times like these will be times we never forget!
So many more we didn't have room to post here, but here are just a very few of our amazing friends who we love dearly!






The show was over the top!
The guys brought the house down!
bob shows are always soooo full of energy, it's crazy!

From the moment the guys step on the stage, to the moment they leave you can almost see the energy within each person throughout the crowd.


They have amazing fans who love them to death!
It's an amazing experience to be a part of.

-------------------------
the Underwater
Next stop on our weekend venture is
With The Underwater in Harrisburg PA at Dragonfly!
Also their big cd release show!

What can I say about these guys...we feel like we were there at the start with them.


After 3 Promo shoots, many shows, hanging out with them, etc. we've gotten to know them really well and couldn't be more proud of them!
They have recently been signed with the label Megaforce!

Soundcheck was first...and Dan and Matt sounded amazing!
Was very lucky to hear an acoustic song I had never heard before!
Wow...was breathtaking!












After soundcheck, we had a really nice down time with Dan and his cousin.









Harrisburg is beautiful, we all sat riverside to enjoy the day and catch up a bit.








Dan highly
recommended the pizza in the area, all took him up on it but me. Corey and Dan both had what they called German Pizza!

When the guys hit the stage later that night, Corey and I were both brought to tears from the emotional journey we feel we have had with these guys!


They are truly brilliant in every way.
In fact that word very much resembles the nick-name I have for Dan.
We could not have asked for a better day, night, show with these guys...it will be a memory we cherish always!

OF BROKEN PROMO SHOOT with VIDEO!!!

Our latest promo shoot featured the band: OF BROKEN
Woke up to a beautiful Saturday morning and headed out to MD for the shoot. After all the guys arrived, the couch was loaded in the back of Heath's truck and we were on our way!
First stop, a back country road of which we thought would not be traveled much by cars....please not the word thought. Oh were we all very much wrong! Car after car came down this widing back country road. Please picture, the location we want to shoot is on a very steep hill where cars are coming full speed towards us! ha Solution, thankfully Of Broken has an amazing manager who wanted the shot as much as we did. He stood at the top of the hill stopping each car to caution what was going on at the bottom of the hill. I'm sure the traffic would have never thought to see a full photo shoot taking place living room couch and all! In the end, as you can see we were able to capture the shot we wanted! One of the most difficult scenes yet, but pulled it off :)

Next on our stop, an very cool old bridge! Yet another obstical! Cars passed over this bridge much more than the guys expected. Ha Chris doing a balancing act to hold one of the lights, I'm running back and fourth to pose, primp, and also grab another light as cars passed....looked like a circus act...but yet again well worth it!


Next stop, singles! This was probably the most entertaining part of the shoot. While shooting, all of a sudden an albino ferret wondered upon us!! Poor thing was wild, either set free by his owner or an escape artist. However he appeared to be friendly, other than the little nibble he took out of Heath's arm. You can actually see him here in the quick shot we snapped while Heath was saying OUCH! Heath also found out the little guy had a love for Slim Jims






Last on the stop, how could we let an AMAZING SKY pass us by! Not many words are even needed to explain this breathtaking spot.











Thank you to the guys for being AMAZING to work with!! Corey and I had a blast this shoot and look forward to working with these guys many more times in the future! And Chris, thank you for setting everything up and giving me an insight to each personality...couldn't have explained them anymore perfect :)
