Brad Paisley & Kevin Jonas for Rolling Stone

Had a great time today photographing Brad & Kevin for a story in Rolling Stone magazine. Both have new projects coming out and mega tours to follow. I had worked with Brad before, shooting a packaging photo shoot in Palmdale CA a couple of years ago, so I knew he would be a lot of fun to work with. Wasn't sure what to expect from Kevin, but he was a total pro from the minute he walked into the room.  

I always do research on the people I'm assigned to photograph so was curious what Kevin would be like. 

I knew he went by his middle name, that he was also called K2, that he played lead guitar in the band with his brothers, and that his weapon of choice was a Gibson Les Paul (Wikipedia). When it came time to do the photos, he whipped out a brand new guitar that Gibson had just given him for this new tour. Wish I could post some pics so you can check it out. Brad and he both took turns giving it a spin. Get a load of this, you can turn a knob on the guitar to adjust it to the type of music you'll be playing, and then like magic, you can watch as it tunes itself. 

Guitar techs beware. 

Photos to follow in a few weeks or so
