Garrett Elkins Photography

I'm Garrett Elkins and I started in November of 2011. I have a Canon 300d and take pictures of shows around the Orlando, Fl area. I am old fashioned in my thinking of photography. I do minimal editing to my photos and believe the best photos aren't edited, but are taken well. I've shot bands such as Man Overboard, Handguns, Seahaven, Touche Amore, Circle Takes The Square, Pianos Become The Teeth, Go Rydell, Death Before Dishonor, Nervous Breakdown, Bane, Miles Away, Defeater, The Slow Death, LARF, You Blew It!, Direct Effect, Light Years, Daylight, None More Black, The Bombpops, and tons more. I pretty much go to every show that I can in Orlando with my camera and take photos for those bands.

I have recently expanded from live band photography to taking promotional photos, head shots, modeling shots, and engagement/wedding photos. If you are interested in booking me please contact me at garrettelkins@aol.com or through one of the various social networks!

I also book shows in Orlando, FL. so if you're in a band and looking for dates to fill get in touch!

Looks good. But the word "Photography" looks a little stretched. I'd have it smaller, and squeeze it inwards a bit. If that makes any sense!

Thanks.  I did think that as well, but it’s always good to get outside eyes on it.  I appreciate your opinion!

Looking for models to shoot

Hey there followers!  I’m looking for models to shoot.  I’m trying to expand my portfolio.  I’d prefer to shoot tattooed models, but won’t deny anyone a chance.  If you’re interested please contact me at garrettelkins@aol.com!  Please share this with all your friends.  Thanks everyone!
