I shot The Antlers in the Academy on the 17/11/11. Extremely dark gig and it was very difficult gig to shoot. I came away with some great images though which, being honest, I’m a little surprised with.
I met the Wild Colonial Bhoys over at the Irish Fair of Minnesota when I was on my internship and they also allowed me to use one of their songs in the promo video I made for the Fair. The lads do a tour of Ireland every year and they invite their fans from America to come along with them. Which meant I got to meet some of the friends I made over in America again which was great!
The gig was in the Arlington Hotel and the lighting was a bit crap but it was great to meet everyone again and now I’ve to plan my trip back to America to see them soon!
Ellen Eve is a singer from Limerick who currently studies Music in Dundalk IT.
She asked me to do a photoshoot with her so she can use the photos to promote herself online and for future gigs.
I’m very happy with the outcome and she has told me that she’s delighted with them aswell.
I shot Throwing Muses in the Academy the other night for Goldenplec. The lighting was a bit dull and flat unfortunately but it was a good night apart from that.
I was taking photos of Patrick Wolf in the Academy, in the incredibly soggy Dublin. It was really really great and I would have loved to be able to shoot beyond the 3 songs for this one. He started to play the harp just as we were leaving the pit and he did some costume changes later in the show. Ah well, maybe next time!
Let me know what you think!

I got the amazing opportunity to shoot the Hard Working Class Heroes festival this year. It was my first time being at the festival at all and it was really, really cool. The whole vibe is relaxed and it’s great to see what the future holds for Irish Music!

I shot Land Lovers’ album launch for AU Magazine on Friday @ Crawdaddy, Dublin.
My photos of Squarehead and Last Days of 1984, who were supporting Land Lovers in Crawdaddy on Friday night. It’s also the first gig that I’ve shot for AU Magazine which is neat!

I did a photoshoot with David Lynn a tenor based in Dundalk, Co. Louth last week. He wanted black and white head shots but I gave him the colours ones aswell just incase he later decides that he prefers them. I’m happy with them and, more importantly, David is too.
