Live Music | Performance
I work with performers, artists, venues, and arts organisations to create photography and videography that captures the movement, energy, and atmosphere of live performance. My approach is intuitive and unobtrusive, focused on documenting scenes as they unfold — from choreography and gesture to light, sound, and the relationship between performers and audiences.
Using a combination of stills and moving image, I produce visual content designed to support marketing and promotion across websites, social media, programmes, and digital campaigns. The work prioritises feeling and flow, helping audiences understand the tone and experience of a performance before they arrive, and giving artists and organisations strong, flexible visuals to promote their work over time.
