atlanta editorial photographer: Bitter Southerner with Patterson Hood

For several years now we have been following the stories of the Bitter Southerner. They tell the tales of the interesting people and places of the deep south and pair them with beautiful photos. A few months ago we were honored to be selected to photograph a story for them. This is Patterson Hood. You might recognize him as the front man for the southern rock group Drive By Truckers. We shot the first part of the day at the iconic Atlanta Star Community Bar and wrapped up the day as Patterson played an acoustic show at Eddie's Attic. We were also able to shoot some video of Hood playing his latest single, Ever South and one of his favorite throw back tunes from the earlier days.
