Master Blasters Band Promotional Images

I went up to Southampton to photograph the Master Blasters (http://www.masterblastersband.co.uk/) a sensational covers band set up to provide top end live music for corporate gigs, weddings and any other such events! This six piece (Jen, JD, Loucas, Chris, Si and Holly) needed images for their shiny new website and for general promotional purposes. We went up to Southampton on the Wednesday night to do a bit of a recce and work out a plan of action for the following night when we had managed to round up all six members for a shoot. Having walked the majority of Southampton's roads we found a cool place to do some backlit pictures - This sort of preparation the night before is absolutely essential ... saves me dragging six band members around the city's darkest corners for hours trying to find the perfect spot! We started off the shoot nice and gently in random car parks and the local park, then did some live gig pictures, finishing off with the backlit images in a random alleyway. With a little assistance from Tommy and Owain we managed to combine a selection of naturally lit images with a few flash lit images.

I thoroughly enjoyed photographing these guys - they are an awesome band playing all the classics - They will blow your socks off! I defy anyone to sit still whilst they are playing!
