Chuck Boyd began his photography career as a Marine combat photographer in the 1960s. He leveraged that experience to earn a scholarship to the University of San Diego and became a staff photographer for the San Diego Union-Tribune newspaper after graduation.

Chuck’s love of photography has carried on into his retirement, as he has pointed his lens at musicians performing on stages around the country. He’s been blogging for eight years, updating it 10 or 12 times per month. More than 135,000 visitors from 140+ countries have visited his blog to view his stories and photos that span his 50+ years of fantastic photos.

Chuck has printed three blog books so far (with a 4th blog book coming soon) and brings them with him to blogging and photography meetups near his home in Charleston, South Carolina. He also shares them with his children and knows they’ll be a great source of memories even after he’s gone.
