The Church

The Church played in Auckland recently as part of their Starfish 30th Anniversary Tour.  My shots weren’t quite as dynamic as i would have liked so i’ve had a go at converting them to black and white for something a little different.  you can see the original set over at Getty Images here

Trey Songz

Trey Songz live at Logan Campbell Centre for Getty Images.  I wasn’t sure what to expect for this shoot, but there was a really lovely atmosphere and Trey was great at interacting with the crowd (including the group of people in wheelchairs next to the photo pit who were having an awesome time!)
