I do not photograph as much music as I used to. A few years ago I was attending 2 or 3 gigs a week and although I still love the atmosphere, the lights and the raw emotion, I’m sad to say that there is just not the access or the finances there for those of us that are not employed by the tours (or those photographic news agencies that cannot afford to pay for exclusive access 😉 )
That said, I did cover a few events that I wanted to, including Peter Gabriel (I had not seen him for years and my son was one of the technical team), Glastonbury and The Boss.
I have to say the stand out performance for me (by a mile) was Christine and thew Queens ( Redcar ) ..
Here is a selection of images.

One more part to follow I think… Red Carpet (what else is there, avoiding the coronation of King Charles)
I am a Sussex based photographer providing imagery for the entertainment industry.
My working time is split fairly evenly between London and Sussex although I have worked all around the world; from Europe covering the BAFTA's, Glastonbury, Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals, to the USA covering The Oscars.
Passing knowledge & experience on is very important to me and so I am proud to say I have served on the Board of the British Press Photographers Association, helping to improve the image and practices of working press photographers. I educate by writing a widely read “technical” blog detailing my use of Fuji cameras and other equipment as well as giving talks about Press (and other aspects of) Photography to camera clubs and groups.
