I’ve been shooting at the Country Music Hall Of Fame the last few weeks helping them catalog their collection. I’ve photographed everything from Hank Williams suit to Ira Louvin’s mandolin. Wanda Jackson’s dress, Roy Roger’s boots and just about every guitar you can think of. It’s been a great job-lots of interesting stories and it’s always amazing getting to see all the instruments up close.
