I am a professional photographer/journalist in Phoenix, AZ. I specialize in live concerts and band promo shoots.

I am extremely passionate about music and photography. Those are the two great joys that I have after my two amazing kids. I also owned a band management and promotion company in LA back in the 80s and have now transitioned into a concert photographer and reviewer different outlets. I have written for KNAC.com, Honky Tonk Magazine, Unrated Magazine and www.thehotticketonline.com. You can check out my work at www.laurisvendsenphotography.com
