Roadtrip + Photography: Angus + Julia Stone @ The Mercury Lounge, New York City – 8th April, 2009 photography, roadtrips | (2)
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to shoot Angus + Julia Stone while in New York City My first day in New York City coincided with a gig from the Australian indi-folk brother and sister duo, Angus + Julia Stone. Prior to leaving I'd managed to score a pass to shoot them thanks to their older sister Catherine. Continue Reading...

2008: A Photographic Review – Part I Life, photography | (4)
A contender for my photo of the year: Whitley @ The Annandale Hotel, Annandale - 16th May, 2008 Rather than wait until the end of the year I thought I'd undertake Part I of my photography review of 2008 at the close of June wait until the end of the year to publish Part I of my annual photography review. Closing 2007 out with José González was always going to be difficult to beat, and while the beginning of 2008 has not had quite the same hectic nature to it as 2007 was it has still proven to be fruitful on the ...

Photography: Kate Miller-Heidke @ The Speigeltent, Sydney Opera House Forecourt – 24th October, 2008 photography | (5)
The ever gorgeous and energetic Kate Miller-Heidke played one of the first shows during the Opera House Forecourt's season of The Spiegeltent She's cute, she's fun, has a powerful voice and I have a major (photographers) crush on her (but she's taken, having married her guitarist a while back). Kate Miller-Heidke is back, ladies and gentlemen, (her fans indeed come from both sides) and with a new album to boot. I had the opportunity to shoot the Queenslander when she was in Sydney in April and played two shows at The Annandale Hotel (a location that was indeed unusual for her to ...

Photography: My Filthy Riot @ The Annandale Hotel, Annandale – 25th October, 2008 Life, photography | (0)
Ben Ven Grootel, a mate of mine from The Root 42, headed over to the east coast on tour with his band Streetlight from Perth and asked me to grab some shots for them. The Annandale Hotel has also increased their rig and pulled out all stops on the main stage today. The Annandale Hotel has recently invested in some new lighting kit - specifically a rig of 8 LED lights. Now, normally I'd not be terribly impressed, but in this case I give full thumbs up. They're being used specifically as fill lighting with smoke not as primary lights and ...
