Earlier on today, me and the 3B Media team, Barnaby Aldrick and Phil Barber took a wonder down to The Crypt in Leeds, to check out Hope & Social recording a few new songs for their new album. More of a quick visit to say hi, see what we were each up to, and talk...
really lovely shots!
Great pics. The Crypt looks like an awesome place!
Absolutely cutting photographs there of a dynamic band in action. They capture a haunting nuance of a recording process beyond twinkling teeth and Cola endorsed, leather clad chair swinging.. Inspiring work here Rob, from an inspiring band, quite a pairing!
Lovely stuff Captain Booker. Some lovely details and moments well caught…
Excellent images, love the atmosphere captured here.

Studio 81 on Kirkstall Road, kindly gave me permission to shoot in an old disused bus depot in Leeds for a promotional shoot for a TV series currently in development called, Primary Faction.

Brilliant! Did you make him shave mid shoot! Impressed! x
Love it amigo! A fantastic stash of shottage. You’re really trying to push things further with every shoot. I love the first one by the blue wall. Natural or studio light? I’m also lovin the HDR like detail in the coat on the bottom image.
Skills.
Waiting on a pavement during a cold November night with a few £k’s worth of camera gear waiting for the sky to hit it’s peek isn’t among my favourite jobs, but when Made By Analogue asked me to shoot some images for Theatre Royal Wakefield’s new promotional material, I couldn’t turn it down.

I love this one.
One word. Wow!
Love it, great concept, fantastic colour. Is that the colour from the side of the bus in there as well?

So to expand on the teaser I posted earlier this week . . . My two photo buddy affiliates Barns and Phil run a company called The Sound Gallery, whose aim is to photograph the Northern music scene in style, through both cool portraits and live gigs.
They’ve both been working hard at getting access to...
