Bands: B&W

Though many concert halls rely on lighting and stage effects to please the crowd, sometimes it’s nice to step back a little and see the world in monochrome.  

Pola-love.

How many times has my little photographic heart started to beat faster seeing lovely sets of instant photography? Because someone very close to me (my gorgeous and terribly lovely boyfriend) is absolutely awesome, I am now the proud owner of a something-something-instant camera, as portrayed below. I’ve already started going wild with it and can’t …

Yet Another Bandshot

My very first shoot this year was something small and unofficial with the local singer-songwriter Tjandra, who came round to my studio with his band, instruments, and a lot of enthusiasm.  We decided to use props which I had handy in the ‘prop room’ – among them an old phone, a typewriter, a world-globe.
