Do You Hear What I Shoot?

I was on location at the new Noah Liff Opera Center … the new headquarters for the Nashville Opera. I have been commissioned to shoot architectural photography for the architect Earl Swensson. One of the features of their new space is that they can setup a complete dress rehearsal on site rather than having to go to the performance venue (TPAC – Tennessee Performing Arts Center).

While I was there to shoot the facility in use I took a moment as I was packing up my gear to shoot a little of the performance – Amahl and the Night Visitors. It’s a neat show. I love the costumes … and the story line is fun.

Amahl and the Night Visitors

You’ll just have to wait to see the architecture. We’ve got 3 shots and 5 or more to go. We’re simply waiting on the final touches from the interior designer.

On the Run

Well, I got to spend the day with a great group of people … runners and spectators … all supporting the Tug McGraw Foundation. Tug McGraw was Tim McGraw’s father who died of a brain tumor.

We started out the day for the Nashville Country Music Marathon with a chili rain. That didn’t dampen the commitment of these folks to run for a great cause.

Here are a few of the shots from the day. The complete set can be see here: Nashville Country Music Marathon

The Fire Truck Attraction

Why is it that boys always love fire trucks. Even today, I’m drawn to the big shining red bahemoths.

I was recently given an assignment for Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company to shoot a local presentation of a grant to the Arrington Volunteer Fire Department. While this could have been a drab “grip and grin” assignment the guys at the department were more than amiable to allow me to shoot some fun stuff with them.

Thank to the guys at the Arrington Volunteer Fire Department.

Running (and shooting) the Streets of NYC

Kyle Dreier — Tue, 04 Dec 2007 19:56:18 +0000

Well, I was there … catching the action of the 2007 ING NYC Marathon. What a fun time! I shot from sun-up to sun-down … actually before sun-up and after sun-down.

What a day. I walked about 6 to 8 miles and captured many aspects along the route. Thanks to the subway system that allowed me to walk then jump ahead 5 or so miles at a time then emerge from the subway for a new view. I was on Staton Island, Brooklyn, Queens and finally at Central Park.

I was there on assignment for the Tug McGraw Foundation. See my link below to look at the results from the entire shoot.

There’s much more to this story. The Tug McGraw Foundation raised over $250k for brain cancer research. I was privileged to be a part of their weekend and team.
