Top 5 Photos Of The Week

Week 22

Checkout earlier weeks results below.

By Dave Bruce, CEO

.

Just as it sounds, we thought it was time to start highlighting some of the great work done by our Amnplify Photographers each week. Every week, photos will be submitted, a “Top 5” will be selected and voted on, and one photo will be given the title of our “Photo Of The Week”. Just a little recognition for a photographer who has a goal to shoot impeccably.

The truth is we have thousands of photos posted each month and most of our photographers should get an award for their work. Live Music Photography is a skill like no other. Whether you are squashed into a pit or roaming through the crowd for “The Shot”, the photographer usually has little time and on many occasions poor light to deal with, not to mention the usually “charged” crowd taking every “perfect” spot. In my eyes, they are experts in their field and often unseen and unheard. Over time, we want to change that a little.

Enjoy the photos, and checkout more of their work.

Bio: I’m a Sydney based photographer who first started shooting music in 2011.  Since that time, I’ve shot concerts and festivals in various parts of the country.  I love being able to capture that special energy that you get from a live performance in front of an enthusiastic crowd – those moments where the fans get to share something with the bands they love. It’s all about the adrenaline and the passion for me; as long as the challenge of catching that perfect shot.

About the shot: About the shot: DZ Deathrays are a phenomenal live act, and they throw their passion into every show. Their lighting is just as dynamic and exciting. It was a very busy night in the photo pit for this show, but I was lucky enough to be close when the two guitarists came together in the middle of the stage so I could grab this shot. I think it really captures a little of what their on-stage energy is like.

I started taking photos a few years ago and found mixing dual passions for live music and photography extremely rewarding. My main passion is capturing musicians and connecting with them in their ‘moment’ through the lens. I enjoy all facets of live music photography from the small, intimate pub gigs to the bigger venues and festivals. Nothing feels better than when you nail that perfect shot or jump!
