About Me

Hi, i'm nick befort. I'm from Brookside, Kansas City but have lived in Rogers Park, Chicago for the past three and a half years. I'm a film production/communication double major with a minor in photo at loyola university chicago. I do vocals in a band called Death By Thunder - we are a punk band that has only opened for Improv Comedy... it's kinda weird but whatever. I also take a shit ton of photos, look if you want. I'll be posting more and more as time goes by. I hope you enjoy. If you want me to take photos of your band send me a message and we can work something out. I use a Canon Rebel XT - i perfer not using flash... but in some cases it's necessary which blows.
