Have you ever thought about how impactful professional photos could be for your music brand? My name is Ash, and I'm helping artist show up with powerful brand imagery and media. Sub to my newsletter to stay up to date on upcoming performance & networking opportunities for artists and musicians.

Blue Tulip graced the Delaware Music Network with a lovely performance during this past Open Mic Jam Session.

Phok brought an eclectic edge to hip-hop, blending experimental lyricism with an animated stage presence that turned first-time listeners into instant fans.

The mastermind behind [Slim's Open Mic], Slim Dizzle, closed out the night with his signature feel-good rap. Blending soulful samples with a smooth, bouncy delivery, he brought the perfect energy to wrap up an unforgettable night.

Just when the energy couldn’t get any higher, Zayewave threw on a mask and completely switched gears—jumping into the crowd and feeding off their energy for a high-intensity performance.

Sunny flipped the room’s energy when he jumped off stage mid-set, shifting from a quiet, reserved demeanor to full-throttle punk vocals in the middle of the crowd.

Fontane commanded the stage like a king, delivering sharp, high-energy bars that had the crowd locked in from start to finish. Every movement, every lyric — pure presence.

It’s not just about the camera, it’s about knowing how to use it. A pro captures the feeling of the moment. The right lens, timing, and editing turn a good shot into a story. If you’re serious about your image, invest in visuals that match your sound.

Tanksley, an independent musician hailing from Syracuse, NY, and based in Delaware, is more than the sum of his parts. His brand stands at the intersection of music, visual artistry, and time—a space where rock, soul, and eye-catching visuals intertwine.

Hiring a professional photographer for your next performance can turn an Open Mic into a strategic branding photoshoot.

Photographs from our prior three Open Mic Jam Sessions at the Wilmington Public Library are available on my website: ashthephotog.com

I love shooting these smaller more intimate community events. The performers always give a good show too.

Next event is Jan 8th!
