Born in Baltimore, Maryland  USA,

​​

Bobby Roebuck is a jazz photographer with a unique artistic vision.  He is a creative photographer striving to capture the essence of the moments to be etched in memories for a lifetime.  Bobby taps into his natural talent, as a visual artist and utilizes his ability to manipulate light to bring out the true beauty in a potential subject matter.  He shoots jazz concerts and is always fascinated with the dynamic musician’s ability to bring sweet melodies to the listener’s ears.  Bobby becomes energized along the photographers pit as he catches each expression of the performers and maneuvers in the right position to secure the unbelievable expressions demonstrated in each face.

​

Bobby has photographed for a number of local jazz festivals throughout the triad and local public/private events. He begins the summer each year with his hometown of Winston Salem NC; the Friday Evening Jazz and Summer on Trade (each Saturday afternoon).
