My name is Alex Kidwell, and I go by AK47 Media. I specialize in low light media and have worked everything from music festivals to weddings, sports card shows, and your local concert.
I grew up just outside of Kansas City, MO and have lived in Nebraska (Lincoln & now based in Omaha) for the last 11 years. I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (Go Big Red) in 2016 with a degree in Marketing and a certificate in Sales. While working various corporate jobs after college (as a Outside Sales Rep in Private Aviation Sales & Advertising and as a Senior Market Research Specialist for an ecommerce company) I took up concert photography and videography as a hobby on the side. This blossomed into a passion for all things photo: headshots, maternity, weddings, press photos, concerts - you name it.
A few Midwest organizations I’ve had the pleasure of working with include: Mammoth Live, Borda Productions, Hy-Tekk Productions, Lincoln Calling Music Festival, Rad Kadillac Productions, and Zooks Productions.
Festivals Worked:
Dancefestopia 2022 (KC)
Field Trip 2022 (Iowa)
