Lee first got the photography bug when he was around twelve years old after he was given a Kodak 110 camera as a present. Over the years, Lee has experimented with different cameras and a variety of subjects trying to find what he liked to shoot .
In 1979 a song called “Video Killed The Radio Star” by The Buggles was released. One Saturday, Lee went into town with his parents and bought a copy of the 7” single with his pocket money. The song was a bit odd – being fairly young I didn’t know why I liked it. Then I realised it was the synthesisers and vocoder that made it quirky – and that’s when the love of music started.
Lee has passion for photographing artists on stage – and also capturing the crowd who are attending the concert or festival.
Over the last few years, he has been involved with many events and shot a number of music festivals. These have ranged from small events and festivals, through to shooting in photography pit of 20,000 seat arenas like The O2 in London and the Birmingham Arena.
Lee is very comfortable and adaptable for any given situation and has excellent people management skills which enable him to obtain the best shots.
Photography requires skill, an eye for detail, anticipation and an element of luck. Combine these and you are sure to get some great images!
