At Kate's recent performance at the National Museum of Australia I was able to spend some time backstage before the show and photograph some of the preparations. It was a real privilege and lovely to chat to Kate, Keir and Jess prior to the show.

"Kate Miller-Heidke": By The Water
One of my favourite performers to photograph is Kate Miller-Heidke. She is just an amazingly talented performer (along with her husband Keir Nuttall). She is also incredibly giving and lovely. I have photographed her on many occasions over the past 8 or so years, from small gigs through to festivals and even at the Sydney Opera House. Tonight she was performing by Lake Burley Griffin next to the National Museum Of Australia to a wonderful audience of people that weren't even phased by the rain during the set.

Kate Miller-Heidke - Sydney Opera House
Tonight I had the pleasure to photograph the lovely Kate Miller-Heidke at the Sydney Opera House. It was a brilliant concert held in the Opera House Studio, a nice intimate venue with no barrier to separate the audience from the musicians. This tour is a chance for Kate to show off some new songs from her upcoming album; Nightflight, which is set for release on the the 13th of April.
I always enjoy photographing Kate and her band, including husband Kier Nuttall. She is a fantastic performer and is a joy to watch on stage. Can't wait for the next concert.
I need to give a big thanks to both Kate and Emma for everything.
"Celebrate In The Park - 2009"
Jessica Mauboy
Today I went to "Celebrate In The Park", a free concert event organised to celebrate Canberra's 96th birthday.
Headlining the concert were the "Hoodoo Gurus", "Kate Miller-Heidke" and "Jessica Mauboy".
My primary reason to goto this event was the opportunity to shoot Kate again. She is a fantastic artist and definately one of my favourite singers. She has an amazing voice, great lyrics and is very theatrical with how she performs and dresses. I wasn't dissapointed. She performed brilliantly, the Canberra croud really getting into it.
The day was great fun, with a great turnout and pretty awesome weather. The bands were brilliant and I managed to get some great photos.
It's nice to be able to add the "Hoodoo Guru's" to my list of bands I have photographed. They are a classic Aussie band that still sound great.
