Miss Pole Dance Australia 2010
Back in October i took some pictures at Miss Pole Dance Australia 2010 at the Enmore Theatre.
I spent most of my time backstage.
While i’m at it, here’s some photos from last year’s competition.
Here’s some video of this year’s competition.
The Lair on MTV
Clearing out the archives, here’s some photos i took at The Lair earlier in the year.
It’s a TV show on MTV filmed at The Metro.
Little Birdy on The Lair
Here’s some pictures of Little Birdy at MTV’s The Lair from April.
The pictures ran as a “backstage with Little Birdy” feature in Famous Magazine.
Therese Rawsthorne : RAFW 2009
Next up from Fashion Week was Therese Rawsthorne who held her show on site at the Overseas Passenger Terminal.
Her show featured the model who seemed to be the “it girl” of the week, Myf Shepherd.
Friedrich Gray : RAFW 2009
During Rosemount Australian Fashion Week i had the privilege of photographing a number of shows backstage for fashion PR firm Little Hero. They represent the cream of exciting young designers including Friedrich Gray, ANT!PODiUM, Therese Rawsthorne and Romance Was Born.
These photos are from the Friedrich Gray show, a sydney label designed by Ben Pollitt. The [...]
MTV Australia Awards 2009 : Backstage

The Scare backstage portraits
The Scare week continues (previously No Money video, AMP ceremony) with these snaps i took of the band at The Annandale.
They’re part of a bigger project i did last weekend, shooting band portraits backstage during My Filthy Riot. I set up a mini-studio, taping a gray backdrop to the wall and lighting with a softbox. [...]
Miss Pole Dance 2008
A few weeks ago i had the pleasure of spending some time backstage at Miss Pole Dance Australia 2008.
Evidently pole dancing isn’t the sleazy underground pursuit it once was, with this event held at the 2000 capacity Enmore Theatre with most of the audience made up of women.
Behind the scenes it was relatively calm; lots [...]
Sparkadia’s homecoming
My old chums Sparkadia headlined a packed Gaelic Theatre on Saturday night. It was good to see them back home after touring Europe and playing festival dates at Glastonbury and T in the Park.
Like i did previously with Expatriate, i snapped a few pictures of Sparkadia backstage, nervously anticipating going on stage to [...]
Australian Fashion Week 2008
Between my regular work i managed to squeeze in some time to shoot a few pictures at Australian Fashion Week. I saw shows by Friedrich Gray, TV and Romance Was Born.
Apart from shooting Friedrich Gray last year, i’d never been to a fashion show before. Photo-wise it’s like shooting fish in a barrel, [...]
Expatriate at The Gaelic Theatre
On Saturday night Expatriate headlined a sold out show at The Gaelic Club.
Similarly to the other week when Dappled Cities Fly and Red Riders played the Metro, this was another case of a Sydney band playing a triumphant sold out show in their hometown.
It feels like Expatriate have broken through the trendy [...]
