Still Alive

Wow. I’ve just realised how long it’s been since I last updated this blog and, honestly, that’s pretty unlike me.
It isn’t because I’ve been slacking off — quite the opposite really. The last few months have been packed with projects and I’ve been trying to give each one the attention it deserves rather than rushing things out for the sake of staying active online.

I’ve worked with some incredible artists since my last update and, only last night, I photographed one of my favourite live shows in recent memory. I seem to say that a lot lately, but somehow the music and the people behind it keep finding new ways to inspire me.

Music photography continues to push me creatively and I’m excited about the projects coming up over the next few months. My goal is always the same: keep learning, keep improving and keep raising the bar for myself.

A huge thank you to all the artists, bands and clients who have trusted me with their work so far. Being able to do something I care so much about still feels incredibly special.

Away from photography, I’ve also been spending plenty of late nights working on some web development projects for myself, all while navigating a house move at the same time. Thankfully both are nearly finished.

I also dusted off my old Yashica recently after some inspiration from Mike and decided to experiment with a self-portrait while setting up lighting for another shoot. The image was created by shooting through the Yashica with my Nikon D3, keeping all the imperfections, reflections and dirt from the process intact.

The project is called Through The Viewfinder and I loved the unpredictability of it. It’s definitely something I’d like to explore again in the future.

    Cool post Marcus – absolutely nothing wrong in being busy (especially in these “times”). Your new websites are great too….I wanted to take some shots of Nick Lowe at Bristol the other day but they weren’t having any of it (great show though). One day I’ll get a chance at shooting some bands.
