Hi, I’m Michael. I photograph bands around Christchurch.

A professional photographer since 2019, I love photographing performers. So it made sense that I would gravitate to photographing musicians.

The Music Project web site includes all of my music photography since I first started (with the Penny Blues Band in May 2019). All of the photos are available for download and use, under my simple photo licence.

Other performers I enjoy photographing include dancers. See my Dance Project Facebook page for examples.

My main photography business started when I established Christchurch’s first boudoir photography studio in 2019, Smoke&Mirrors Studio.
