Meredith Music Festival, 2022
Ahhhh... Meredith! A beautiful weekend away in the country capturing images for the 30th year of this amazing festival. A weekend with friends and others alike all drinking and baking in the sun enjoying acts like Surprise Chef, Courtney Barnett, Yothu Yindi, Nu Genea, Clamm and Our Calson just to name a few.
This being my 3rd Meredith it never seems to fail me, as Tim Hemensley of the great Aussie band Powder Monekys once said while playing at Meredith "why do you need to go to the Big day out after going to this aye" he hit it right on the head with that i reckon. Its a beautiful time and I can't already wait till the next one.
Thanks for having us Meredith, see you next year :)

The Fillmores at Shot Kickers, 15th of Jan 2023
One last time. The Fillmores say goodbye (but not forever) last Sunday night to a full room at Shotkickers. From the very first time I listened to them I've always been a big fan of this band, being able to Photograph them in the way I do for the last few years has always been a treat and to see a full band room all connect with their new music and some old classics for one last time in Melbourne is a great joy to see and I cant wait to be able to photograph them back in Melbourne one day soon.
The Fillmores will also be playing one last hometown show this Saturday the 21st of Jan in Apollo Bay, Which if its like the last time they played there it will be a bit of a controlled chaos situation with a lot excitement, beer drinking, shit talking and eventually stumbling back to your campsite feeling very content after a blissful evening.
If you haven't yet, go give their new album "Makey Sensey" a hot listen, it was up there with one of my Favourite albums of 2022.
