It was an amazing day, filled with love and laughter, and an absolute joy to shoot. Here area small selection of my favourite shots from the day.

P.S. Friends and family of the happy couple can view the entire gallery, and purchase prints, here – just ask Helen or Tony for the password.

Chorlton Arts Festival 2014

May 25, 2014 by admin | Comments Off

I’ve been photographing Chorlton Arts Festival for a number of years now and it’s always a blast. This year saw a great range of music, theatre, comedy and spoken word events, plus exhibitions and workshops across the M21 postcode. My personal highlight was the Blues & Gospel Tram, which commemorated the 50th anniversary of Muddy Waters, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and others playing an incredible live show at Chorlton Train Station in 1964.

This year I had the pleasure of shooting Rachael Dadd, John Smith, Bells in the Birches and Paper Aeroplanes, as well as the wonderful Blues & Gospel Tram. Here are a small selection of my favourite shots.

Bonobo: A Sneak Peek

March 1, 2014 by admin | Comments Off

Last night I shot Bonobo at the Albert Hall in Manchester. It was an incredible gig – beautiful venue, amazing music, fantastic atmosphere and a truly lovely crowd. I’ve never had so many friendly gig-goers ask me where they’d be able to see my images before so, whilst I’m still editing the bulk of them, here are a couple to whet your appetites…
