Behind the Lens on Lindsey Stirling’s “Master of Tides” Cruise
Ahoy, Stirlingites!
Earlier this month, we had the incredible opportunity to photograph Lindsey Stirling’s “Master of Tides” Cruise, produced by Sixthman, the leaders in immersive music festivals at sea. From May 13–17, 2025, we set sail from Miami to Nassau, Bahamas for four unforgettable days filled with music, magic, and pure connection.
It was an experience we’ll never forget!
Welcome to Lindsey’s World
As an event photographer working with Sixthman, my mission is to capture not just the schedule - but the soul - of each cruise. And Lindsey Stirling’s world was nothing short of otherworldly. From powerful live performances to whimsical theme nights and behind-the-scenes fan interactions, every corner of the ship pulsed with energy.
Lindsey brought her signature mix of violin, choreography, and storytelling to the sea, leaving fans (and let’s be real—me too) in awe.
The Lineup? Next Level.
The Master of Tides cruise featured an all-star cast of artists and creators, including:
🎶 Fitz and The Tantrums – 3 amazing performances
🕺 Derek Hough – A full Derek Hough Experience plus 3 appearances
🎤 Hunter Hayes, David Archuleta, Sam Tsui, Black Gryph0n, ARKAI, and Baby Wants Candy brought even more magic to the decks
From golden hour sets to spontaneous fan meetups, I had my camera ready to capture every candid, emotional, and electric moment.
Why I Love Photographing for Sixthman Cruises
Working with Sixthman means getting to document something bigger than a show—it's a floating community. These cruises create unforgettable memories for fans and artists alike, and I’m so honored to help preserve them visually. Whether it’s a sunset dance party, a heartfelt Q&A, or a themed night where everyone goes all in, I’m there with my lens, ready to tell the story.
If you're planning a live music cruise, fan experience, or destination event—photography matters.
You want someone who gets the vibe, moves with the moment, and blends in with the experience. That’s what I do.
