She graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 2006 with a BFA in advertising photography, and has been on a constant creative adventure ever since. Her focus is in studio and on-location lighting. While Linda has a particular passion in portraiture and still-life work, she always carries a camera around and always keeps an eye out for inspiration for future work. She posts many of these pictures on her photo blog: www.djlindalovely.com. Many of her shots come from her daily life around Austin and the many places she travels to. In 2009 Linda began covering SXSW for the music blog Stereogum. She has had the amazing opportunity to shoot everyone from The Black Keys to P. Diddy. She has just finished her 3rd year working for Stereogum, and looks forward to future SXSWs. Linda shoots live music with the rhythmic styling of a drummer. She attributes that to the fact that she actually is a drummer in a band called Old News.
