The Best Damn Photo

April 29, 2008 by David Bergman

Earlier this month I shot a handful of concerts for Avril Lavigne. She’s currently on tour to support her album, “The Best Damn Thing” and is putting out a live DVD from the Toronto show.

I’ve worked with Avril before but had not seen this tour. She really knows how to work an audience and her fans love it. The last time I photographed her she was just a kid, but now at the ripe old age of 23 she really seems to be having fun on stage.

    Great images. From an outsider’s perspective, you appear to have the dream job. I know there’s a lot of non-glamorous work that goes unseen and makes up a large part of your time. But wow! Your portfolio is a Who’s who in the entertainment world. I have included your site on a new project I started a couple months ago, ILovePhotoblogs.com. Keep up the great work!

    Awesome shot you got there! :D D

    I love Avril, her tours really rocked, the way you capture that image is way COOL.

    Keep rocking on David! (:

    Great Shot! I like how the Guitar and The Background light are touching… makes almost a goddess effect around her guitar.. Looks really good!
