It's a quagmire of black dirt, ringing ears, red SOLO cups and misplacement of responsibility. For the fifth time, I beat my body up at the annual Sasquatch! Music Festival at the Gorge Amphitheater overlooking the incredible Columbia Gorge, and managed to survive with my camera still intact. After shooting the festival for a publication while in college, this year I was able to bring my camera in and photograph just for myself and friends. It's a completely different experience; one I appreciate and will cherish forever. Here's just a few of those moments. 

I hope you enjoy, and thank you for looking.
