So, who am I.

I'm an amateur photographer who likes to shot under unusual or difficult lighting conditions. This, combined with my love of music, led me to concert photography. I still take photographs of other things, but decided to make my Ipernity site about my music photography.

So, what will you see here. Probably no one famous. I usually shoot local bands, in local pubs and clubs. There are several reasons for this: 1) It's easier to organize permission to shoot and 2) the lighting tends to be more challenging with smaller venues.

The challenging lighting does sometimes mean that I can't always shoot the whole of the band, as I'd like to, but it does push me into all sorts of problem solving areas, which I like.

Music, to me, is emotion. And that is what I aim to capture. I don't always succeed, but I continue to try.
