Thanks For Reigning : Tribute To Jeff Hanneman
Jeff Hanneman Memorial

May 23, 2013
I started shooting Slayer in 1984…and in that time, I became close with the band. From sneaking my camera into the club shows to becoming a co-producer on the Soundtrack To The Apocalypse box set – it has been a great ride. But this one hit hard. At his celebration, every snap of my camera brought me closer and closer to the end of a big chapter in my life. I know Slayer will go on – in one form or another – but there is such a sense of unwanted closure. It is hard to put in words – so I am giving you a little taste of what Slayer gave me over the years. Thank you Tom, thank you Kerry, thank you Dave, thank you Paul and Jon…and lastly – thank you Jeff, and farewell.

I got into Slayer late, but have been a fan for 21 years. In the end Slayer became my favorite metal band. R.I.P Jeff.
