Stage and Performance
Photography
I want to photograph people in their best moments!
When someone is on stage, it represents countless hours of preparation and practice. My aim is to create photographs worthy of this, preserving the moments of passion, drama, emotion, and movement. With experience shooting dance, actors, pageantry and more, I’m skilled in photographing fast-paced shows.
With a background in the arts, I care about using my photographic skills to uplift other people’s artistic expression. If you are organising a dance recital, theatrical performance, beauty pageant, or any other stage show or performance, I would love to help preserve the moment.

selected Frequently Asked Questions
-
Working in the background is what I find to work best. Performers and attendees can be at ease, and I can focus on achieving the greatest possible photos. Candid photos help to portray events authentically and show those genuine movements. I also love to capture wider photos that showcase the atmosphere, and whilst I do work in the background, I'll step in and direct when needed, and capture individual and group shots as well.
-
I am also an experienced drummer, enabling me to follow the beat or spot patterns in performances, and allowing me to predict what might be coming next, and capture it at just the right moment.
-
I work with the latest high-end professional mirrorless Nikon cameras and lenses. These cameras have impressive image sensors and processors, which, in combination with high-end lenses, allow me to work in challenging and low-light environments whilst creating sharp images, free of motion blur and with next to no noise or grain.
-
With my background being in the arts, I have created and brought to fruition many of my own creative projects, so now I love to use my skills to bring to life other people’s projects and events. I thrive on being able to bring out the energy, excitement, and emotions through my photographs.
-
I use a secure online gallery platform that allows you to easily view and download your photographs on your computer or phone. These can be shared with large numbers of people.
For events with contestants or large numbers of performers, galleries with facial recognition can be offered, enabling gallery viewers to upload a selfie and find themselves within individual and group shots.
-
Depending on your event and your requirements, I can offer time frames that suit you. Typically, this can be within 2-4 days, but for smaller or time-critical events, we can discuss faster turnaround times within 24-48 hours, or even uploading some images during the event (schedule and network availability permitting).
To keep the excitement going between the event and photos being available, gallery pre-registration can be offered, enabling recipients of the gallery to be notified as soon as photographs are available.
