Slam Dunk Midlands 2014

This year I was lucky enough to shoot Slam Dunk Midlands again, this time for Hit The Floor Magazine.

After cramming tonnes of gear into my bag I ended up only using my 50mm f/1.8 and the borrowed 14-24mm f/2.8, switching between the two in hope of getting more varied shots.

Here's some of my favourites from the day.

Blitz Kids

Canterbury

Chunk! No Captain Chunk!

 

Aurora

We Are The In Crowd

Less Than Jake

The All American Rejects

Bury Tomorrow

Frock 'n' Roll

At the end of 2013 I had some of my photographs of the lovely Scarlett Ward featured in Rebelicious Magazine, alongside an interview with myself, Scarlett and MUA Amy Murray. I'd wanted to submit to this magazine for a while, so I was mega excited when our set was selected to be featured.

After seeing the photos published, I wanted to get straight back out shooting to submit more. For a while I'd been wondering how I could combine my two main focuses within photography - music and fashion. And what better way than photographing female members of bands and getting them to talk about their style. Having suggested the idea of a feature to the awesome Dominique Marshall (editor and owner of Rebelicious) a few emails later and the idea of Frock 'n' Roll, a monthly featured was created.

So here it is my first Frock 'n' Roll feature for Rebelicious Magazine featuring one of the loveliest and most lively ladies I've worked with Jessica Calvesbert of Aurora...

As a special treat for the first feature, this month's Frock 'n' Roll also featured an interview that I did with Taylor Jardine of We Are The In Crowd...
(Note: the images in Taylor Jardine's feature were not taken by me.)

Look out for next month's issue of Rebelicious for my interview and shoot with Kayley Busby of Follow You Home!


The full set of photos from Jessica's shoot will soon be uploaded.

First gig of 2014

Earlier this week (Monday 10th to be exact,) I got to shoot one of my favourite bands, We Are The In Crowd at London's Koko. I've lost count how many times I've shot them now, it's either 4 or 5...

I love seeing We Are The In Crowd live and this show beat every other show of theirs by far. It was definately an ace gig to kick 2014 off with!

Here's some of my favourite shots from the night, as always the full sets can be found on my Flickr.
