Here’s some press shots i did with the delightful Lanie Lane back in August.

These were all shot at Gardel’s Bar.

We also did some shots in the studio.

And one last snap on the old film point and shoot.

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 a winner of a shot, and i also knew it was exactly the same face she pulled for Cybele on her Grates cover shot a few years back.

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 approached his minder and asked if he could fit us in, and thankfully he said yes.

When i showed him our table of props he was immediately drawn to the head dress, saying it was similar to the one he wears on stage. To add another element to the shot i asked if he’d blow some confetti out of his hands.

It was a lovely chance photo, and made up for Richard Ashcroft cancelling his scheduled photo that day.

And so that’s that for the Splendour Studio photos. You can recap on day 1 and day 2.

It was such a fun and rewarding photo gig. Much credit is due to FasterLouder for having the idea in the first place and seeing it through. It’s a very positive move to see a music publication, especially an online one, investing in well produced original photography.

Particular thanks to Sarah, Tim and Anthony from FasterLouder for being such legends. Thanks to Elleni for assisting me so valiantly and Vikki for loaning a bag of kooky props and accessories.

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

Made in Japan

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.

Like some other brands before them, General Pants is getting involved in the music scene and has started a record label to promote unsigned bands. They sign them up for one single and release that with all royalties going back to the band.

I was asked to shoot promo style shots of three of the acts while they were decked out in some clothes from General Pants.

Guineafowl

Underlights

I wanted some consistency across the different bands. So i had two set-ups that were the same – full band lined up on a white wall, then that same white wall, but lit with some coloured gels and playing with shadows.

Guineafowl

Underlights

Made in Japan

After the studio photos i took each band for a wander to get some shots elsewhere.

Underlights

With Underlights we were taking some pictures outside a church in Darlinghurst. I was trying to keep everyone quiet because i feared if someone inside heard us we’d be shoo’d away.

Sure enough, an elderly gent poked his head out the door asking what we were doing. But rather than ask us to leave, he invited us inside.

So we took a couple of shots indoors too.

Underlights

Made in Japan

By the time Made in Japan got to the studio we were running out of time, so rather than leave the studio we just went to the roof for an open air shot.

Guineafowl

For Guineafowl we walked to a nearby children’s playground. By this time it was completely dark and i needed light. My lights need mains power, so we knocked on the door of a house near the park and asked the owner if they minded us borrowing their power for 5 minutes. They kindly agreed, and so there was light.

You can see the photos mixed with some other photos i took that day on the General Pants website.

Hair shoot

The final images

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.

This is the same model as the photo above - just a different look

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.

Andrew Stockdale at Jackson's Rare Guitars

It was for a feature in Time Out Sydney on various Modular artists.

Andrew said this was a move Jack Ladder and Kirin Callinan would do on tour to psyche themselves up before going onstage

The shots on white were taken at my place with an idea for a composite cover with other artists. That didn’t end up working out.

After doing the studio shots we wandered round the corner to Jackson’s Rare Guitars for a few photos with some vintage guitars and amps.

And finally, here’s Cybele rocking out before Andrew arrived.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Cloud Control out-takes

Daniel Boud — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:06:45 +0000

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 classic Aladdin Sane album cover.

It’s an homage that’s been paid time and again – from Kate Moss to Lady Gaga.

Check out Cloud Control’s latest single Gold Canary. It’ll get stuck in your head for days.
