Liz Wise: Photographer

I've got a fever. And the only prescription- is MORE COWBELL!!

About Me

I am a graduate of the Art Institute Of Colorado in Denver, BA in Photography. I love shooting still life, studio product, used in ads. I'm currently the in-house photographer for Drillspot.com . I do my own quirky projects in there when I've got time. My favorite subject to shoot is live bands though. I shoot for Unrated Magazine and Bandvibe.com, check out my shows! I also do interviews, you can read them, see what some of your favorite bands have to say on Bandvibe.com!

Here's some of my galleries:
Sounds of the Underground 2006
Gigantour
Taste of Chaos 2007
KBPI Birthday Bash 2007
Family Values 2007
I'm not your typical girl... I like football and video games, I cuss, I listen to metal, go to metal shows, and I've got tattoos. But, I do know how to be a lady. I say what's on my mind and the things that a lot of people are thinking but just won't say. But I'm also one of the kindest, most loyal and honest people you'll meet.




My Interests

Drawing, painting, watercolor, my computer, my cats Echo and Macguyver, photography!!, writing poetry, concerts, talking to people. Tattoos, metal, and motorcycles. Having time just to myself somedays...more often than not it seems. I play a lot of video games, mostly Zelda and Bond type stuff. So what if it's nerdy. Now I mostly just go to school.
Check out my website please: LizWisePhoto.com .

I'd like to meet:

Just a quick plug... Obviously I shoot bands. If you'd like some photos please contact me. I I've been looking into becoming a high school photo teacher. If you have any connections I'd love to speak with you. Check out my website. Plug over.
I'm always open to making more friends. People interested in photography, simular music, movies, and video games, writing and art. Please no more fake or 2 faced individuals. And please don't ask me to be your "friend" without talking to me first.
