Some shots of @lucyrachelmusic and co getting ready for their gig at @papillonsouthampton last night. Personally I kind of like these less 'performative' shots. #music #Southampton #VisitSoton #musicphotography #blackandwhitephotography #Monochrome #bnw #LiveMusicPhotography

A few backstage shots of jfrancissongs and co just before they went onstage at the @TheBrookSoton last night. Unsurprisingly they put on a great show. #Southampton #VisitSoton #musicphotography #blackandwhitephotography #Monochrome #bnw #LiveMusicPhotography #music

A few shots of @emeraldfallsuk playing at @ght_soton on Friday night - a great evening of live #music at one of #Southamptons cultural hubs. #GHT #VisitSoton #musicphotography #blackandwhitephotography #Monochrome #bnw #LiveMusicPhotography

A slightly different take on @dead_freights today - it's nice shooting the guys off stage ie as people, rather than musicians. #DeadFreights #VisitSoton #Southampton #portraitphotography #Portraits #BlackandWhitePortrait #blackandwhitephotography #Monochrome #photographylovers

Some shots of @dead_freights (and co) enjoying themselves at the @heartbsoton afterparty last Friday/ Saturday. #DeadFreights #VisitSoton #Southampton #portraitphotography #Portraits #BlackandWhitePortrait #blackandwhitephotography #Monochrome #bnw #photographylovers

A little unsure how to describe his expression... perhaps he's just a little disappointed that there's nothing left in the cup? #streetphotography #photography #blackandwhitephotography #sweetstreetbeat #capturestreets #street_is_life #lensculturestreets #Monochrome

Well the subject of the shot is obviously this young woman's expression, but I also like the various textures found in the scene. #streetphotography #photography #blackandwhitephotography #sweetstreetbeat #capturestreets #street_is_life #lensculturestreets #Monochrome
