Band Practice

During the week, I had the opportunity to shoot images for a 'Hijack the Airwaves', a newly put together indie/rock band from Chippenham, during their band practice. I have known one of the band members for over 17 years, so I wasn't nervous at all, I knew that it would be a very relaxed environment which I could shoot away and be in my own little bubble whilst they rehearsed.  I was very excited to shoot this particular shoot because it was a new experience for me. After having no experience in shooting in the music genre, I spent abit of time looking through ideas on Pinterest and Flickr beforehand to help capture the feeling and mood within the room and to also help with the sort of images that I would like to shoot and that would best portray the band. After arriving, there wasn't much room to work with but I soon got into the swing of it and started to shoot away like there was no tomorrow! I am really happy with the results after moving out of my comfort zone with this shoot and I can now say that I am their official band photographer so I will continue to shoot upcoming gigs and practices with them which is very exciting!!

Make sure you give them a like on Facebook!

Here are a few of my favourite images from the shoot.
