Model Aeroplanes XXX-Mas Party - Reading Rooms, Dundee

On Christmas Eve-Eve, The Reading Rooms in Dundee was host to MA's XXX-Mas Party. It was billed to be a sweaty and messy night, and it certainly lived up to expectations.

The LaFontaines // Model Aeroplanes - Tour

Last week I joined Model Aeroplanes for a couple dates as they supported Motherwell band, The LaFontaines.

The first stop of the Scottish leg of the tour was a trip up to Inverness. Once into the hills, we were treated to some cracking scenery. Definitely one of the more scenic cigarette stops.

Tenement Trail 2016

On Saturday past, Glasgow played host to Tenement TV's annual Tenement Trail showcasing an incredible dollop of new Scottish music across the city!

I travelled through with Dundee band ST.MARTiiNS to shoot some things for them as the played Broadcast, but thought it'd be rude to just stop there... 

Obviously it's near impossible to catch every act on over the course of the day, but I wasn't disappointed with the bands I did manage to see. (See below)

The night was rounded off in messy and sweaty style at Flat 0/1 with The Van T's headlining. 

(Shout out to Cameron Brisbane for letting me crash!)

Model Aeroplanes // La Belle Angèle

Last week I decided (very last minute) to take a trip through to Edinburgh to catch Model Aeroplanes as they took on La Belle Angèle. It's been an absolute age since shooting these guys and it was so much fun getting back into the swing and trying some new shooting techniques out during the gig.

Unfortunately I arrived to the venue to only catch the tail end of support band, NOAH NOAH, but what I heard was what set the crowd up for a cracking night of music.

It was also good fun to catch up with the Indigo Velvet lot after last shooting for them at T in the Park. They'll be on tour very soon, and it's thoroughly recommended you get along to at least one night of it. Not to miss!

Anyway, here's the goods...

Fitness Shoot with Francesca

Monday past, I travelled up to Aberdeen to shoot something a bit different to my usual kind of thing. Francesca is currently in the middle of training for a bodybuilding and fitness competition and we thought it'd be interesting to get some shots of her progress so far. It was nice to try out some different techniques too.

Take a look!

The LaFontaines / Eliza and the Bear / Model Aeroplanes

Saturday past I travelled through to Glasgow to shoot a gig that was a long time in coming. A few cherries were popped that night with the bands playing their first ever show at the Barrowlands Ballroom and what a show it was!

It was also the first time shooting with the new kit and I was thoroughly impressed with the results.

Take a look for yourself!
