Lanie Lane
Here’s some press shots i did with the delightful Lanie Lane back in August. These were all shot at Gardel’s Bar.
The Grates for triple j magazine
I’ve had a few weeks off, getting married in Thailand and whatnot. But it’s time to hop back on the blogging wagon so here’s some clippings from a shoot i did before i left with The Grates for triple j magazine. As soon as Patience did the yelling thing, gnashing her teeth, i knew it was [...]
Big Day Out Studio
Like the backstage Splendour Studio i shot last year, this year i had a photo studio set up backstage at Sydney’s Big Day Out for FasterLouder. You can see all the photos in FasterLouder’s Big Day Out Photo Studio gallery.
Splendour Studio – Day 3
Here’s the third and final day of my FasterLouder Splendour Studio photos. One of the highlights was a chance photo opp with jónsi. Although we’d requested a photo with him, we’d been knocked back and he wasn’t on our official schedule. But i saw him wandering backstage, doing a photo with Harpers Bazaar. So i [...]
General Pants lookbook
On that same day i shot the three bands for General Pants, i also photographed model Sonya Kukainis for a winter knitwear and jackets lookbook.
General Pants Major Label band photos
Last month i took photos of three of the bands participating in General Pants Major Label intiative. They were Made in Japan, Underlights and Guineafowl.
Hair shoot
I did some pictures with hairdresser Kristina Moussa earlier this year. Something a bit different for me. But good fun. Here’s some un-touched-up outtakes too.
Andrew Stockdale of Wolfmother
Having photographed Wolfmother countless times onstage it was nice to get the opportunity to photograph frontman Andrew Stockdale face to face. It was for a feature in Time Out Sydney on various Modular artists. The shots on white were taken at my place with an idea for a composite cover with other artists. That didn’t [...]
Cloud Control out-takes
Back in August i had Cloud Control in the studio, and after doing some band photos i thought it would be fun to experiment a little at the end of the session. I singled out lead singer Alister and asked the make up artist to draw a lightning bolt over his face, like David Bowie’s [...]
Andy Bull portraits
Some snaps with Andy Bull, music virtuoso and unique singing talent.
The Fabulous Chandeliers
Here’s some pictures i did back in January with The Fabulous Chandeliers. They’re a quartet of all singing, all dancing ladies who perform hit songs of the sixties. We did some shots in the studio as well as on location at Madame Fling Flong. They were such good fun to shoot. You can check them [...]
Wil Anderson gets Wilosophical
Here’s some snaps of comedian Wil Anderson taken for a feature in the latest Time Out Sydney. In the tradition of naming his standup shows with a pun on his name, Wil’s latest show is called Wilosophy. Which is why we thought it’d be fun to dress him up as a philosopher. So i hired [...]
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 [...]
Ruby Rose cover shoot
The new issue of Time Out Sydney is out today featuring a cover story i photographed with MTV host Ruby Rose. We shot it a couple of weeks ago in a brief morning shoot at Blue Murder Studios. Some of the references i was considering were a Terry Richardson-esque punchy cover like the GQ one, [...]
Kid Confucius photos
Here’s some photos of Sydney funk/soul/hiphop outfit Kid Confucius i took last Sunday. They’re something a little different to the usual indie rock bands i shoot, but that’s a good thing. They’re a great band, recently winning ‘Best Urban Act’ at the Dance Music Awards. With 8 people it was quite a challenge arranging people, [...]
Ground Components photo shoot
Here’s some promo photos i took of Ground Components a while back. They’re being used in the promotion of their new album, An Eye for a Brow, A Tooth for a Pick. I noticed the one above was used in Rolling Stone and i believe a collage of pics also made it into the album [...]
