About

I'm John. I've been photographing musicians for over eight years, most of that time in the pit at Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena, where I'm the in-house photographer.

I shoot for TheZine UK and LeftLion, and my pictures are licensed through Getty Images and iStock. Bands have used them for press and promotion.

Away from the arena I've covered Y-Not Festival, spent a day at Rockfield Studios, and shot the odd wedding.

I'm fully insured and used to working a three-song pit without getting in anyone's way.

Hire

Most of my work comes from venues, promoters, publications and the bands themselves.

Gigs and tours

Coverage of a single show or a run of dates, from the pit, side of stage or out front.

Press and promo

Portraits and band shots for a release, a tour announcement or your next poster.

Festivals and events

Multi-stage days, venue events and anything with a crowd worth photographing.
