About

The Man of the Peephole – Robert Kipness

My name is Robert Kipness. I’m a photographer based in Northwest Arkansas. I love going around the United States taking photos of bands, places, people, objects; just about anything you can think of.

I started off photographing random things around 2013, then started photographing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournaments along with running my own Brazilian Jiu Jitsu website where I wrote articles, made videos, and reviewed clothing/gear related to the sport.

That spiraled into then photographing dance company sessions, family photos and weddings before I quickly realized that concert photography was my main passion.

I did that for about five years until I went back to school to get a degree in respiratory therapy and ultimately photography took a seat on the back burner.

In the summer of 2024 I decided I wanted to pursue it again, and here we are now.
