Sonic Boom Six - No Man No Right Video Shoot


 Last weekend I headed down to London to the Macbeth of Hoxton, to take a few behind-the-scenes shots at Sonic Boom Six's video shoot, for their new single 'No Man No Right'. Find out more here.

With any video shoots you can't use flash during filming, so you have to work with the light you've got. There were no constant lights, only a tiny amount of natural light and the rest was the lighting from the venue. I set my ISO fairly high and used apertures of f/1.8 and f/2.8.

I only stayed for a couple of hours as I had to head over to the Islington Academy to shoot the Silverstein/Boy Sets Fire show straight after. Here's a few shots...

The Pretty Reckless - Brixton Academy


 After rushing to London to shoot Linkin Park, two days later I photographed The Pretty Reckless at Brixton Academy. I'd seen alot of other photographers shots from this tour, and many people moaning about smoke and Taylor Momsen's face being covered by her hair, so I was quite worried about what to expect.

There was quite a bit of smoke, a crowded pit and only 2 songs for us to shoot. I'd love to have got some better shots, but I'm happy with what I did get.

Frock N Roll - Rebecca Need-Menear

The latest installment of 'Frock N Roll' features Rebecca Need-Menear from Anavae.


For this shoot I headed to Rebecca's hometown of London and shot around Greenwich Uni. It's an amazing location that I'd love to shoot at again. I'd definitley recommend that every photographer visits it atleast once. The day turned out to be a really, really lovely sunny day, and as there was no need to rush we had a really chilled out shoot.

For this shoot I thought I try out a new lens so borrowed a 14-24mm f/2.8. I've been wanting to use this lens for gigs so thought I see how I work with a wider lens. Here's a few behind the scenes shots taken by Lizzie on my phone.

Massive thanks to Sanctus for lending us clothing, my awesome assistant Lizzie and of course Rebecca. Here's a selection of my favourite photos from the shoot and the feature in Rebelicious.
