Make Your Music Seen, Not Just Heard

If you’re in a band and serious about getting noticed, you’ll know how important it is to have images that say something. Not just that you exist, but what kind of band you are. Your sound, your style, your energy, it all needs to come across in a single glance.

That’s where I come in.

I recently worked with Cosmic Rays, a Shrewsbury band who have been around since 2009 but were looking for updated promo shots to reflect their current lineup.

but before we got anywhere near a camera, we sat down and talked. I listened. They told me about the early days, the kind of gigs they love playing, their influences, who they hope to reach. It’s an essential part of the process. I want to understand the soul of a band before I try to photograph it.

That approach is baked into LOUD+CLEAR, my dedicated service for musicians and bands. Every shoot is custom built, because no two acts are the same. Once I’ve got a feel for who you are and what you’re about, I’ll create a shooting plan that reflects your sound and your image. I’ll share it with you, we’ll fine tune it together, and then I’ll take care of everything else, from location sourcing to getting the right permissions in place.

With Cosmic Rays, the final plan included a location that gave us texture, mood and general vibe that helps reflect the band’s image. It wasn’t about copying someone else’s style, it was about amplifying their own.

I offer packages to suit all budgets, because I know what it’s like when you’re trying to push your music out into the world and everything costs something. But I also know that having the right images can open doors. Whether it’s for press, promotion, or your next release, people will often see you before they hear you. Those visuals need to count.

So if you’re ready to step things up, LOUD+CLEAR is here to help you do it properly, with intention, with creativity, and with a photographer who’ll take the time to get it right.
