An Evening With The YouTube Ladies
|
Well my role as “Official Photographer” turned out to be more of what I expected, just a fan in the crowd with a camera that knows a thing or two about taking pictures. Although I didn’t make it on the guest list, I was still more than happy on how the evening turned out! I was able to hang out with my good friend Jen Dolen, see a great show, and take some great photos! |

I was able to meet Nataly Dawn after the show and she was disappointed the guest list thing didn’t work out. I assured her that it was ok and that I still enjoyed the show and I will still be a fan! She was super nice and very down to earth! In addition to having my picture taken with her, I also got her to autograph her CD I bought. We briefly got to talk about Jack’s new video on YouTube which was pretty awesome! Hopefully when she comes to Minneapolis again we can get the photographer/guest list thing figured out. |

I also met with Lauren O’Connell who was the opening act for the show. Like Nataly, she was really awesome to talk to and very accommodating in autographing her CD and having my picture taken with her. In addition to her own solo career, she also formed a group with Nataly called My Terrible Friend. They recently covered the song “I Started A Joke” by the Bee Gees and the video can be found of all places on YouTube. I really hope to see Lauren in her own headlining show sometime soon! Maybe be the photographer for her show??? (Just putting it out there.) |

However, the bonus moment of the evening was meeting Danielle Ate The Sandwich! I just happened to recognize her as she walked by and was in shock that she was here in Minneapolis. After sounding like a complete dork telling her I was a fan and how I enjoy her music videos on YouTube, she decided to take the open seat next to me and we got to chat a little further. As it turns out she recently moved here to Minnesota from Colorado with her boyfriend. We talked a little bit about photography (told her to come see me or Jen at National Camera Exchange) and her up coming shows. Again, like Nataly and Lauren, Danielle was super cool and was nice enough to let me have my picture taken with her. Hopefully I will be able to catch one of her shows now that she’s here in Minneapolis and maybe take some photos as well??? (Again, just putting it out there.) |
