My obsession with still photography began in 1994, when I found my grandfathers' Kodak Brownie hidden in the back of his wardrobe.

Since I was only ten at the time, It seemed to be the perfect device needed to capture images of the unicorns that I was told, lived at the bottom of our garden.

After spending weeks, crawling through the scrub and photographing every insect and lizard I could find, I'd lost interest in unicorns and decided that non-fictitious subjects were much more interesting.....and beside, they stood still longer.

Thus life, as seen through the viewfinder began.

Since I've been involved in the music industry for the last ten years, I've since turned my photographic talents towards capturing the effervescence of live bands and the evanescence of the darker side of art.

I hope you enjoy my exciting, and at times, disturbing outlook on life.

My apologies for the lack of photos..........Due to the insane crowd surfers and stage divers, I could only stay in the photographers pit for one and a half songs..........and even then I left with cuts and bruises!

SEBASTIAN BACH!!

This guy is legendary!

This was my first time seeing Sebastian in concert, and I must say the show was fantastic!

Many thanks to Sebastian and his crew for requesting that I shoot the entire show and inviting Von and I backstage...........

This lead to an evening of stories filled with rock n' roll debauchery and tattoo comparisons that didn't end until two in the morning!

My New Website

Welcome to my new - re-vamped website!!

I have added a DOWNLOADS page (where you will find my wallpapers and banners).

I felt my DARK ART deserved it's own page............which I will try to add a new piece to each week

If any of you have a vision for a piece of art you'd like to share with me..........send me an email.

The tattoo gallery is another new addition to my website, with Ville Valo & Kataklysm deflowering this gallery...............It's hard not to love this page!.................If someone has a tattoo.............I'll shoot it.................I'll also be adding some of my own tattoos...........for those of you who have requested them in the past.

And finally............... a bookings & links page.................what is understood doesn't need to be discussed.

I have just released my Coheed and Cambria shots, I was asked by the band to shoot the entire show, but due to the insane nature of the audience, security could only guarantee my safety for the first two songs.

HIM and McQueen photos online.

After much delay, I finally managed to release my HIM and McQueen photos.

Von and I had a fantastic night hanging out with the guys, and have loads of stories to share with you all as soon as we get the chance.

WANT MY PHOTOS ON YOUR MYSPACE PAGE?

I've been getting a ridiculous amount of emails from people asking if they may use my photos on their myspace / personal wesbite.......... You may take 1 or 50........I don't mind, but pelase remember this extends to INTERNET use ONLY.

The general rule is................If you're making money from my photo, YOU need to BUY the liscence from me or legal action will be taken.

This certainly has been a full on week for me....................I'm grateful that I have a few days off before the Coheed and Cambria shoot.

The Metalstock photos will be online later today..............So make sure you join my mailing list below, so I can deliver my latest shots to your door...................yeah baby!,

In the next few days I'll also be posting my Promo shots of Kataklysm & McQueen ( I've been asked by McQueen to photograph a Promotional shoot next week, once they return from their Auckland tour with HIM.

DID I TAKE A PHOTO OF YOU?

Due to the massive amount of requests I had at these gigs for FAN/CROWD photos.........I'm going to dedicate a page just for these shots.

You have my permission to use them on the internet.........eg your website, myspace page or any other form of blatant self promotion!!!!!!!!!!.

So If it did take your photo, it will be on my PORTFOLIO page, under “FANS”………...I hope to have this online within the next few days.

If you would like a HI-RES copy, this can be arranged................As I'm currently organizing to offer 8" by 10" prints of my favourite shots..........And fan shots if requested !!! )

See you all at Coheed & Cambria.
