Isn't that a crazy name for a band? I love it! When Christine told me that her indie rock/folk band, Sh! The Octopus needed some new band photos for their press kits, I was thrilled that they chose me to be their photographer!! I love photographing bands for so many reasons, but especially because I love promoting independent artists and sharing their art with others!
As we talked about possible settings for their photoshoot, we intially had plans to use a diner, but when our ideal diner location was closed, we decided to head out to Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum! What a fun place that proved to be!!! Floor to ceilling, wall to wall, the place was crammed with antique and modern arcade games with a touch of whimsy and truly bizarre stuff! It's so unassuming from the outside that you could easily completely miss all of the fun inside, but if you're ever NEAR Farmington HIlls, MI, you've GOT to check this place out! You really have to experience it in person.
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot?
We then headed out a high school (don't remember which one) to get some great outdoor shots..
