Glen Hansard, lead singer of the Frames in the Music Factory Carlow.

I shot this one with no flash so I’m quite happy with how it worked out in the spotlight.

I had the pleasure of seeing the worlds greatest reggae band Steel Pulse in Belfast last night. An absolutely amazing gig, a hilarious night and large pitchers of beer for only £6.50, well worth the 5 hour bus journey.

A couple more shots from the gig coming soon.

The title of this picture is also a track on their new E.P ‘Meditations of Linus’

Shot on an 18-70mm lens using a Nikon Speedlight sb800 flash, the focus is soft in parts but I think it adds to it. Any comments and feedback on this one would really be appreciated.

The return of Clergy to KilkennyMusic after a tour of Germany. The lads have just released a new E.P ‘Meditations of Linus’ and it features my photos inside the sleeve. Check it out.

Any comments and feedback would be appreciated.

Itchy Trigger Finger began recording on Monday which gave me a chance to finally get frontman Jimmy Trigger standing still for a change.

Still finding my way around KenMc’s Nikon D70 using a very nice 50mm lens. Trying some new angles and approaches to lighting this time. Any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I had the pleasure of doing a shoot with melodic hardcore punkers 20BullsEach earlier this year. The lads were in a studio in Dublin laying down tracks for their album, Lost Causes , which is out this month so check it out.

A couple more photos from this shoot on the way soon.
