I don’t put my face on here too often but I got some incredible headshots done by @b.leideritz (an absolute magician behind a camera) he made me look like a real live human. So I’m using this as an opportunity to introduce myself and my face prominently in the feed. I don’t know what I’m meant to say but here are some things you might give half a shit about. • ASL 34/Femme/Melb • I’ve been shooting live music since Jan 2022 but I’ve had a camera in my hands since high school. I can’t help myself. • This comes up a lot but I shoot all genres, I love all music so if you don’t think you’re heavy enough because I post a lot of heavier shots - you’re wrong. And I want to come take photos of you. • I feel like I’m faking everything I do and you’ll all find out I’m a total fraud. If you do figure out keep it on the DL. • I wish I looked like this on the daily, but I’m hella lazy and usually look like a homebrand version of this. • My day job is in IT, I love it and don’t see myself ever leaving. • My favourite games are Silent Hill, Oblivion, Bubsy and Stardew Valley. • My favourite movie is Léon the Professional. • I read a lot of books and welcome recommendations always. • I’m usually over caffeinated but I’m not mad about it. • My partner is mad sick at the twang doodle. But for real he is a babe and you should come to a @nepha.lem show to check out the line up of hotties on the stage. They are the reason I got into this so go check them out they put on a wild show and they are v lovely ♡ • I swear a lot. If you don’t like it then that’s on you. Fuck you. Anyway. Hello, Hi, and welcome or thanks for being here and giving a shit.

In case I haven’t spammed you enough since it’s the only thing I talk about these days. Here’s a thing I did. There is also a review to go with it; it might be my best one yet. It received such acclaim as, “It was so good I wanted to share it with my Dad.” - @kidsharks So check it out at @bm.psd link in bio, chuck a follow while you’re there. @thebandghost #Livemusic #melbournelivemusic #melbournebars #livemusicphotography #melbournemusicphotographer #melbournelocalmusic #melbournegigphotographer #melbournelivemusicphotography #melbournemusicphotography #sony #sonya7iii #photoshop #lightroom #lowlight #lowlightphotography #ghost #ghostband #thebandghost #ghosttheband #papa #papaemeritusiv #tobiasforge

Well, you’re all fuckin’ lucky ducks today. 2 feed posts in one day when I haven’t done 2 feed posts in the last year. Now, I’ll start off by apologising to @muntofficial for taking so long to even look at these. I’ve been in my head about the shots I have taken lately and I’ve been sitting on these for weeks not even wanting to look at them because I was truly believing I got nothing. Well, @byjamesgough told me to get out of my own way, so I did, gave myself a 30 min timer and pulled these out of the pile. There is a lot more to come from this show (also apologies to Seventh Circle and Nembutolik, y’all let me come and get some practice shots in and I then load them onto my computer to rot) Anyway, that was a great little diary entry about how much I think I suck but it turns out I don’t suck as bad as my head tells me. Love ya ♡

I’m not sure I remember how to do this posting on social media thing. It has been so long that it took me more than a moment to figure out where the add new post button was. It feels good to be back outside my house with my camera again, cheers for having me @hotmachineband , can’t get a bad photo when everywhere you turn hair is flying! These were from Saturday 2nd May show @pica.melbourne supporting @tism.tism.tism #hotmachine #hotmachineband #tism #tismband #picamelbourne

To post at midnight or not post at midnight, that is the question. And my answer always is, I’ll post whenever the hell I have energy to. Shot @damage_inc_metallica_tribute ’s in the round on Saturday and it was a show like no other. 360° views of non-stop chaos from the band who performed a high energy 3 hour set after their private VIP set and a Q&A. Huge effort from the team behind the tour, the crew on the day, and the guys themselves. Thank you for inviting me to such a special night, it’s a show I won’t forget. Congrats on 20 years 🤘🏼 #Livemusic #melbournelivemusic #melbournebars #livemusicphotography #melbournemusicphotographer #melbournelocalmusic #melbournegigphotographer #melbournelivemusicphotography #melbournemusicphotography #sony #sonya7iii #photoshop #lightroom #lowlight #lowlightphotography #metallica #metallicatribute #tributeband #damageinc #silverbacktouring #tributetouring
