EZRA FURMAN @ O2 RITZ, MANCHESTER
Ezra is a dream shoot, she transcends a certain emotion and passion and her shows are always a happy place. I've shot Ezra around 4 times now and tonight was another stunning show. My favourite image above made me think of a Pre Rahelite, such a gorgeous profile. I was photographing tonight for Academy Music Group and O2 Ritz as their house photographer.

WARGASM @ O2 RITZ, MANCHESTER
And my final gig of the year was an absolute banger - the rock duo Wargasm, featuring on vocals Sam Matlock (son of ex Sex Pistol Glen Matlock and Milky Way on bass). The duo have been going for a couple of years and now started to really make a big noise on the rock/ metal scene, they are selling out shows and amassing a huge fan base. Good luck to them.
Another packed out pit full of photographers, I think around 15. So a challenge to get anything central and with so much movement in not perfect lighting conditions, yet another challenge. For those people who think you just point your camera at the stage and click, they might want to try and do a show like this. Apart from keeping your expensive camera gear safe and yourself (people being pulled out of the front row) you have to manoeuvre around other photographers, then try to capture something reasonable, which can be used to highlight how great the band are. I hope I managed to do this in these shots.

@bstnmnr and @theamityaffliction was insane last night! I think having a circle pit around someone cerebral palsy because he wanted to be apart of the pit was the most cutest and metal thing I've done in my life! . . . . #kerrangtour #bostonmanor #theamityaffliction #manchester #mcr #o2ritzmanchester #o2ritz #metal #poppunk #moshpit #circlepit #crowdsurfing #concert #livemusic (at O2 Ritz Manchester)
