MJ has never looked so GOOD!


If Imitation is the highest form of flattery, I think MJ might just blush a little on Saturday night. Mitch and Elvira threw a house party to celebrate their birthdays last Saturday. Like any good party there has to have a extraordinary silly theme, this one happened to be Michael Jackson or anything that might be related the the legendary MJ.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MITCH and ELVIRA !!

Humble beginnings should begin at a Dirty Bar


I haven't been to the Excelsior Hotel in ages.
The first time I went there for my first live photo gig, it wasn't for fasterlouder or anything but ironically that is where it all began with where I am today on my music influences and appreciation of photography.

I went to high school with Chris and Josh, they were the boys that got me into punk and alternative music. They always played music and I did a band logo for them when I was in year9, purely by luck aka. Myspace that we got reunited through other school friends they had formed a new band called
Chris Duker and the Royals.
Here is one of the photos I first took of them.

Fast forward to May 2008. I have met loads of amazing bands since October last year and my photos have gotten a little finer through time, which is still a bit of a blur for me since I am such a novice who happens to like music and people a lot, so lucky has been good to me.

This is one of my favourite bands right now, they are
123 Amazing. Not just a catchy name, these kids are all really passionate and talented. I am super grateful that they have supported my ideas so often.
Here is a few shots of 123 Amazing oozing of nostalgia at the good old Excelsior hotel.
