I’ve been keeping mum about this shoot, but i’m excited to post these shots i took of Katy Steele (of Little Birdy) and Sarah Blasko. They were taken to promote the Legs 11 festival and it’s going on the cover of The Brag next week.

The opportunity to photograph these queens of the Australian music scene was rather thrilling. The shoot couldn’t have been easier, Sarah and Katy were both lovely. While Katy was a lot more comfortable in front of the camera i think i got some shots where they both look happy and relaxed. I’m surprised how stress free it all went considering there was about 10 people hanging about scrutinising things. Plus the fact i was nervous as hell.

The photos were taken in Tony Mott’s backyard of all places. I’ve yet to properly meet the man himself, but i have done a photoshoot in his backyard.

Legs 11 is happening next Friday night at The Domain in the Royal Botanical Gardens. It’s a sit down with a blanket type affair, hence the picnic set up in the photo. Sarah Blasko and Little Birdy have new albums out this week, so they ought to be playing a range of new material. Another highlight of the night will be Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers playing with the Sydney Youth Orchestra.

As usual, many thanks to Cybele for her help with the shoot. It’ll be a fun week for us next week in terms of street press exposure, i have The Brag cover and Cybele will have a photo she took for the ARIA awards on the cover of Drum Media.
