About Me

I'm a digital photographer specializing in ambient light representations of live performances.I have a twist on my direction. Not only am I taking pictures of live performance, but I'm also doing live digital recordings. My photographic equipment consists of a Canon 40D with a 18-200mm lens and a Canon G9 with a wide angle add on lens. The recorder is a ZOOM H4 with multiple 2gig cards. It works best when I use my microphone array back to my mixer and then to the recorder. I'm working hard to keep my procedure so I can give you both pictures and recordings the night of the show. There is a bit of post production necessary on the recordings for EQ and reverb, either you can do that or I can, but definitely not that night. Donations to the cause are now graciously accepted. I had hoped on only donations of blank CDs and/or sleeves but very few actually have contributed. These efforts I put out are to help you to have promo material or archival material at low costs. Hard to get lower than free, but I can't afford to pay you to take them off of my hands anymore. I also have a PA for hire. I don't rent out the equipment only. I come in, set up, run sounds and tear down. Get with me about fees if interested.

What’s in a stage name?

I have chosen my stage name. Though Greg Ballinger sounds fine for the photography side, I need to have an alter ego for the stage and my rotten playing (can only improve from here). So here it is.......
