Kurt Stevens, Lifestyles and Portraits by Nathaniel Harrington

In the past couple weeks I've been helping out local artist/musician Kurt Stevens put together some images for his big debut at the Carolina Country Music Festival. It kinda started with fishing and worked its way through. He brought me into his lifestyle and we created some social media. It was cool to see his passion for the water and lifestyle of Florida, his love for music, and ability to perform.

This South Florida local is about to hit it off but luckily I got the chance to snap some pics first. 

Whats more fun, getting the bait or using it? 

Kurt has been living the Florida fishing lifestyle since he was a kid and it shows. Music is a huge part of his life and I think fishing has been a major influencer to that.

Where there is bait there are snook. 

Some indoor white backdrop photography so the crowds can see what they are about to get. 

This was a fun part of our shoot. I don't shoot Studio much and Kurt isn't running a model career, so there's a bit of a learning curve for both of us. I'm happy with how it turned out. 

... and it didn't take long to get back to the river.

We played this off to look like a sunset, but its a good 'ol Florida sunrise. Rain showers in the afternoon and evenings make it difficult to plan around. Thankfully Florida light is amazing at the break of dawn. 

Whats not to smile about. Life is good. 

 

I grabbed Kurts music video to give you all a better idea of who he is and his sounds.

This was fun. Thanks Kurt for the shoots and good luck in a couple weeks man! Knock them dead.
