Local photographer Cam Byrnes opened a show at the Juneau Artists Galley on March 1 showcasing over 100 photos documenting 35 years of the performing arts in Juneau.
Here is a collection of just a handful of those photos featuring moments from the Alaska Folk Festival, Perseverance Theatre, Juneau Symphony and more. All photos are by Cam Byrnes.about this particular subset of photography. The following is an excerpt, edited lightly for clarity.This is my fiftieth year. Yeah, this summer. At the end of August, 50 years ago, I moved to Juneau. My entire career in Juneau has something to do with photography. I actually worked for KTOO-TV for 10 years.
I really like planting myself, like, in front of the symphony orchestra with a long lens and looking for the perfect expression, the perfect bow move, the perfect blow on the horn, something like that. So I can focus in on one person and take hundreds of shots. Yeah, okay, I got that; now let’s go over here to the bass, and get a couple of things. And that’s fun for me.
And yet, stage is different. Also, it’s sort of fake. Because what looks good to an audience doesn’t look good to a camera. So I’m always stopping and saying, “Oh, can we move these people closer together?” Well, that’s not how the show is gonna be. But I really need all five in one shot so that they can put it on a poster.
