...a plethora of creative nonsense...
Crossing over with and talking to Event Photography, this covers posts and photosets depicing the, often underground, nightlife of our cities. This explores the relationship between participants in the night time arena, and the spaces the events take place in.
Reading Time: 2 minutes This night was quite interesting as a photographer. I felt off all night – my back hurt and I had a dodgy stomach. I’ve managed some quite good shots, but it is interesting that in many of them my detachment from the night comes out …
Reading Time: 2 minutes Another instalment of the place I shoot most – Remedy at Leeds Beaverworks. I only really have half the night from this one and did not take many shots, as I was very tired and slouched about backstage for quite a while. I was also …
Reading Time: 3 minutes Every year, Beaver Works which is one of the venues I shoot at regularly, hosts a ‘Mad Friday’ party, bringing together many of the events which take place there throughout the year. This year the event fell on my birthday, so I had to go, …
Reading Time: 3 minutes I was invited down to this lovely intimate gig at Wharf Chambers to shoot a set of images capturing the night. Something a little more chilled than many of the events I shoot for this project – I almost didn’t include it on this site, …
Reading Time: 2 minutes Took my self and my kit down to the warm up party for this year’s Unity Day for a few beers and some shooting. Here’s a few shots from the night.
Reading Time: 2 minutes I got a tip off about this event, that a couple of contacts were playing at, that it may be worth a photography blag, which was successful. I’d not really been aware of Mush before, but it was a good blend of harder music and …

Reading Time: 3 minutes So, via a slightly roundabout series of events, I have ended up this last weekend at Hammerfest, a metal weekend at Pontins in Prestatyn, with my old boss from many years ago, and his mate. I like metal, though I have to say I didn’t …
Reading Time: 2 minutes After seeing and shooting them at Unity day I’ve been looking forward to this gig with the Sewer Suckers in Joseph’s Well – one of my teenage haunts. I’ve not been there for some time. I took these moody black and white shots of the …
Reading Time: 2 minutes Went a a random night out at Beaverworks the other day – Killertrax. It was quite quiet and not 100% my favourite music, but I took a few shots to have a go with the Canon at some club stuff, having not been out so …
Reading Time: 2 minutes Just got back from a little bash up at Fell Edge, up on the moors, courtesy of a couple of friends. Camping, barns, dinner and some bands, all in all pretty nice. As usual I took a few shots for the portfolio. It was dark …
