Seasoned music photographer Chris βSherburtβ Smith is one of the most sought-after photographers in punk, hardcore, and Metal.
Here you will find galleries, articles, bookings, prints, videos, and more from the wild card himself.
β2023 was the best year of my life. After almost a decade of grinding it out and working for myself and my blog sites, I cracked my way into the production side of music photography.
I went from working for myself to working for one of the biggest bands in the world NOFX on their final tour. I teamed up with the folks at three different DIY production companies in Detroit, Tied Down Detroit, The Pleasant Underground, and the iconic Black Iris Booking.
This opened more opportunities for me to photograph shows for the venue The Crofoot but also for touring artists coming through Detroit like Less Than Jake, Armor For Sleep, Sinistarr, and more.
This led me to believe in myself and my work in a way I never had before. I like the work I am putting out and am comfortable being hyper-productive.β - Sherburt

Music

PORTRAIT
Emotion can be evoked in many ways but how do you do it in portrait form? I believe the photographer and client relationship is detrimental to the outcome of the photo session. Comfort is the main goalβ¦
