Today is fresh pair of iis’ fifth birthday! I started this website as an elevated version of my blogspot Freshhh Air. In October 2015, I was a journalism student and I was looking to cover a concert. Instead of giving me a press pass, they also gave me photo credentials. I quickly learned how to use a DSLR and fell in love with concert photography!

I knew I needed an official site to continue this passion, so I created fresh pair of iis. It was based on a song that I liked from the TV show Pretty Little Liars Soundtrack “Fresh Pair of Eyes” by Brooke Waggoner and fit perfectly of how I wanted to be seen and how I looked at music, with a fresh pair of eyes. It is the name of my Instagram that was created before the website.

My first post was about Alessia Cara performing “Four Pink Walls” acoustically and ironically the first concert I shot specifically for this website was Alessia Cara.

Thanks for your support over these past five years! Cheers to many more!
