I grew up on the west coast of Scotland but have spent the last 25 years<br />

in New Zealand. My interest in photography started when my daughter<br />

was born and I purchased my first digital camera to capture images to<br />

share with my family. My passion for photography grew from there. I love<br />

getting outside, close to nature, but the challenge of capturing action<br />

images in low light is what I truly enjoy, so you can imagine I am at my<br />

happiest at live gigs.<br />

Live gig photography started for me in Raglan with the legendary Sir<br />

Dave Dobbyn!<br />

Photography at a gig is always a challenge due to low light, coloured<br />

light, no flash and restricted space. Constantly watching what is<br />

happening on stage and around you is paramount to getting an<br />

exceptional shot. This type of photography lends itself to black and white<br />

images as they give a real feeling of the atmosphere and drama of the<br />

gig.<br />

My chosen four images show Sir Dave Dobbyn’s first gig as “sir”, Ross<br />

Burge on the drums, Jo Barus on the bass guitar, and Sir Dave Dobbyn’s<br />

tools of the trade.<br />
