Niles Fuller, long-time noted photographer on the Austin music scene, specializes in large-format, studio portraiture.  Niles is frequently seen club-hopping in the Austin area, listening and looking for bands he likes.  He doesn't necessarily photograph the most famous -- just the groups or individuals whose music he likes.

Some example portraits:
