Finally had the chance to shoot + watch Melanie Martinez. Needed this show emotionally and physically. 

Looking back at last year's Warped, this year was much more relaxed and focused. I took time to catch bands I wanted to shoot and not to run around trying to shoot everything. 

It's always nice when artists see the work you put out and enjoy it. At Chicago's Warped date, I made sure to catch Crossfaith's set since I knew they had flown all the way from Japan for this. 

I was lucky enough to attend two dates of the American Candy Tour featuring The Maine, Real Friends, Knuckle Puck, and The Technicolors.
