ABOUT DAVID P. BERTINELLI

BIOGRAPHY

   For over four decades, I’ve had the privilege of capturing the world through my camera, often from a perspective few others could ever reach. As the brother of Valerie Bertinelli and brother-in-law to Edward Van Halen, I wasn’t just a witness to the rise of Van Halen—I was part of the inner circle.

   Now, for the first time, I am opening my personal archives to share a collection of photographs that many have remained private until now.

   These prints offer more than just a view from the front row; they are a journey backstage and behind the scenes during some of the band's most legendary years. My collection includes intimate, never-before-published moments, alongside outtakes from national ad campaigns I shot that reveal the raw, unfiltered energy of the era.

   Beyond the rock and roll history, you will also find a selection of my personal photography. These are the quiet, candid images from my own life—moments captured away from the stage and the spotlights that reflect my 40-year journey as an artist.

   While only a few select pieces are available today, I am continuously digging deeper into my archives to uncover more hidden gems. Check back often as I slowly reveal these rare, personal chapters of both my life and music history.
