"WHO SHOT YOU" TOURING PHOTO EXHIBIT

Toni Braxton

For nearly 17 years photojournalist Anthony Alden has been capturing live concert performances of some of the top national R&B acts in the country. His work is heralded by many in and out of the urban music industry, and while his style is using a standard focal lens, few photographers have worked with as much creative depth and authenticity as he does.

Carlos Santana

Anthony Alden has a great eye for details, capturing spectacular angles you would might have otherwise missed even if you were at the performance. He's excellent at capturing a musician's look of exasperation, whether performing a ballad, doing a guitar solo, or just drenched in sweat.

Erykah Badu

" I don't have time to wait for the precise moment to release my shutter, so I have to be perfect tune with my creative instinct."

For the past three years Anthony Alden has captured many of the acts appearing at:

Chene Park Amphitheater Detroit and Kinfolks Soul Food Music Festival National Tour.

Keysha Cole

"Feeling burnt out I took five years off away from the entertainment business and when I decided I could no longer stay idle I researched who were the top urban music venues in the country. Both of these music platforms offer intimate up close and personal environments between fan and performer. I was able to gain all access credentials and went to work documenting the performances."

Fantasia

Anthony Alden has launched four urban inspired magazines; (Urban Flava, Buzz Music, Endangered Mag, X Urban Music Mag) which has set him apart from his competitors as having the innate ability to build a project from concept to finish.

Anthony Alden has the ability to work all angles from both the stage, crowd and the photo pit, exposing the essence of each subject he photographs.

Big Daddy Kane

Looking at Anthony Alden photos will make you feel like you were there front center stage, and that's probably one of the highest compliments one could give to someone shooting in this genre.

BLACK THOUGHTS BY ANTHONY ALDEN "I was often told by people around me I would never change. I not only allowed those negative people to reside in my world but I allowed them to cast me into a picture of a man that I wasn't. They thought I wouldn't. They said I couldn't. They told me I shouldn't. So I did. Become all the man I could be."

"I have been journalizing my thoughts since my early teens. I don't think I would have survived if it wasn't for my camera, pen, and paper. I thank God every day of my life for giving me this most precious gift, the ability to look inside my inner self and share my soul." "Picture My Word" My Words, My Wisdom, My Life I dedicate to My Mom Elizabeth Vines RIP When we lose loved ones to death it can often leave us at a loss for words as we try to reconcile the past. What we should have said, didn’t say cut slowly into our guilt. The loss often takes us back to happy times when innocence carried our hearts far away from the actual pain we try to push aside. I learned the other day an ex- died a tragic self-inflicted death. The finality of death fills me with uncertainty about where my mortal soul will rest. The nature of death can accidentally catch us by surprise like a ticking clock next to an hourglass. When, where, and how d...
