AMNPLIFY
Top 5 Photos Of The Week
Week 19
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.

Stuart Bucknell
I’m a Sydney based photographer who first started shooting music in 2011. Since that time, I’ve shot concerts and festivals all over the country – particularly since I joined AMNplify. 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 well as the challenge of catching that perfect shot.
ABOUT THE SHOT: This was at Miranda Hotel; 360 stopped and asked for the lights to be turned down, and for everyone to turn on their phone lights for one song. I was fortunate enough to have side stage access so I could capture this, but not fortunate enough to miss the girl in the front row doing a quick Insta post!

ABOUT THE SHOT: This was 360 at a venue close by to me that I’d never shot before. It was a pretty wild night, the crowd loved it, and 360 gave back; including giving an extra encore on top of what he’d planned, because the crowd loved it so much.
