So you’ve organized the venue, the photographer (naturally), the flowers, the dress and the food. But somewhere along the line you have to consider music for your ceremony and reception.
Is it better to have a DJ or a live band? That would depend on your budget but most would want a live band if money...

Some people don’t like weddings, if that’s you then this post isn’t for you! I’m sure if you’re a wife or husband you’ve already been through the emotional ride of your special day, but have you considered what it is like for your photographer? If he’s any good at his job he (or she of...

Friday was an evening I had noted on my calendar for quite some time. Two of my favourite local bands were playing in one intimate venue. Also, it was the first time I was taking out my Nikon D3 out on a real gig.

I had to be...

One of my favourite bands who I always have time for is Lightbox. I was invited to go to attend their rehearsal in a nearby village in the middle of nowhere which is very useful for a band who want loud without annoying any neighbours or cows!

Nickelback has such a large repertoire of hits, but all the time I couldn’t...
