Lily Allen




















I missed the gig she did in Bournemouth so managed to get a pass for her end of tour gig at the Brighton Centre. I was shooting for Ilikemusic and as ever the production was great. Again her "Its Not Me Its You" album has to be one of my favs of the year

Yeah Yeah Yeahs




















One of the best bands around, so it was great to get to photograph them. Karen O has such amazing stage presence and the lighting for the gig was amazing. Their album It’s Blitz! Is one of my favs of the year.

Babyshambles



Will remember this gig for along time, as I was so ill! They were performing at Southampton Guildhall and the crowd was certainly up for it. Lighting was not the best, but managed to get some great black and white images to give it a more vintage feel. Not really been a fan of Pete Docherty, but he actually rocked it.

Audio Bullys



I was comissioned to shoot the new Audio Bullys press shots and album cover, which is released in the Spring. Tom and Simon were really cool to work with and the whole day was good fun. The next day I covered their live event at Koko in Camden as they needed shots to use on their website. I will put up the album cover when it has been designed and signed off.

Pioneer/Space Calendar 2010 Competiton



During the last few months I have been putting news up about the new Pioneer/Space calendar that I shot during the summer months in Ibiza. Good news that its came back from the printers last week and it looks great. The calendar features live shots of Djs and clubbers at both theopening and closing parties at Space in Ibiza. The print run is 20,000 and it is distributed through out the world to all the dedicated Pioneer dealers. Customers who buy a Pioneer product will also get a calendar to go with their purchase. Its great exposure for me as the whole thing is all my work. I am very proud with the outcome.
