Yesterday I went out to Wellington to go hang with Alex, Mike and Pat of Hey Monday while they were practicing for the upcoming AP tour. Cassadee was up in New York recording vocals for their new record, and Jersey is up in NJ with family so they were not able to be at this practice, but everything still went smoothly. They were actually working on an amazing cover that will have to stay a surprise until you go out and see them.

The night after I attended the New Found Glory Orlando show, I went to House of Blues Orlando to hang at the Take Action Tour. Most of the tour was actually at the NFG show because they had a day off, and the guys in A Rocket to the Moon had invited me to come out the next night to hang so I happily obliged.

I had the opportunity a few weeks ago to attend and photograph two of the 10 Year anniversary shows for NFG’s self titled album with New Found Glory, Saves the Day, Hello Goodbye, and Fireworks. As some of you may already know, I grew up in South Florida and NFG is from Coral Springs so their music played a large part in my life and the lives of most of my friends in the area.

On Friday, January 8th 2010, Alex Tchekmeian of AKT Enterprises, Joshua Woodard of A Day To Remember, his good friends Jordan Scheib, Robert Lane, and myself (Chris Martin) left on a Southwest Airlines flight at 7am to Las Vegas Nevada. We were in for a weekend of wild happenings, most of which I did not ever expect to experience in my lifetime.

A few months ago, I covered the wedding of Bryan and Bre Bobo from Indiantown, FL. It was a gorgeous day and we were graced with an amazing ceremony and reception site thanks to the amazing people at King’s Ranch. The ceremony took place under some beautiful tree cover, and the reception was held in and around a recently restored farm house. Photos are below so feel free to explore!

Today was the official launch of Prestigious Clothing’s new line for 2010. I had the pleasure of photographing the line for William this time around, and we had an amazing fun filled and very productive day of shooting. Prestigious had the guys over at We Are Synapse make them a new myspace with the main header image that I took for them, and it came out looking amazing! You can check out the myspace at http://www.myspace.com/thisisprestigious

My good friends in the band “Easton” decided to re-form after their reunion show a few weeks ago. They have been in the studio for a good week straight recording new demos to send out and put on their myspace. I was lucky enough to be a part of the recording process, and they guys asked me to sing on a few of the tracks. When they come out you will be able to hear me on “She Walks In” and “Drop Out”

Around a month ago, I judged the Atticus Battle of the bands along with my buddies Mike Gentile (from Hey Monday) and Ryan Miller (from Carraway Clothing). The prizes were a full sponsorship to Atticus Clothing and Royal Family Clothing, along with guitars from Epiphone, strings and accessories from D’adario, drum sticks from Vic Firth, and a photo shoot with yours truly, www.photosbychrismartin.com.

On Sunday, December 27th, I took a trip down to the Culture Room to see my friends in Hey Monday at their hometown show with Versa Emerge, Go Radio, and Take the Town. I did a quick photo shoot (one of the shots is above) with them for Royal Family Clothing, and soon after, all of the bands started hitting the stage to rock the faces off of around 600 tweens.
I took a ton of photos, and instead of me sitting here and blabbering about it, I figure I will just show you all of them exclusively here on the Photos by Chris Martin blog!

Last week, I did a photo shoot with the band Easton who will be playing a reunion show on the 28th down in West Palm Beach, FL with my band Words Now Heard, Upper Class Trash, Fight in You, and Truth About Vegas. The guys in this band are some of my closest friends and I had a great time shooting with them! During the shoot, my good friend and always amazing assistant, Mitchell Goldstein took some behind the scenes shots, and I wanted to give everyone a little peak of the shoot. We found a great empty field out in Wellington, and it was a beautiful day so we definitely took advantage of it and got some great shots!
