"Shanty"
Cheryl's photostream
|
I'm a feminist & humanist and find beauty in everything.
Self taught photographer who would love more tips and training. I just love documenting fun times. I've been documenting the San Pedro punk scene for the last couple years and love the community that San Pedro has. Before that I used to take photos of the now gone PCH Club back in the late 90's. I have my own zine (The Blah! Zine) and also take pictures for a couple other punk zines. I also help out at record label check it out if you're into punk..

Atombear Powerpop™ [killed himself] says:
"This chick is way cool. From her kickass concert shots that drop you head-first into the pit, to her continuous and inventive explorations of analogue film, Cheryl is versatile as all hell, and a real sweetie to boot.
One of the few people on the planet that I wouldn't mind meeting in person, seriously."5th August, 2009

Claire Marie Vogel says:
"I heart her! She is the kind of girl a lot more female photographers should strive to be! There's a lot more to say, but here's what I got for now - Shanty Cheryl is bands, fun, prettiness, raw and all that good stuff!"

""Shanty" Cheryl has class, style and pizazz. She makes me want to visit the west coast and hang out with all of those cool people she so deftly captures on film.
Looking at her photos makes me happy, and somehow makes me more hip, just by osmosis. Her photos are like a vitamin of hip, encapsulated. But a natural form of cool, nothing forced or inauthentic. She is 100% authentic, that Shanty girl.
I really like the way she sees the world!
Respect!"10th June, 2008
