The run-up to Christmas and the first weeks of a new year are some of the busiest for gigs, for fairly obvious reasons: end-of-year reviews, family time, and a natural moment to mark something new.
Booking earlier than usual is the main practical advice here. Availability tightens noticeably from late November, and studio slots in particular go quickly. If a specific date matters, get in touch well ahead rather than assuming a late booking will work out.

FAQs
Two common questions, answered.
Do you work with venues as well as artists?
Yes, on both sides: artists and labels wanting performance shots, and venues wanting a library of room and crowd images for their own marketing.
How do you capture the feeling of a gig, not just the band?
By shooting the whole room, not only the stage. The faces in the crowd, the hands in the air, the light hanging in the haze carry the feeling to anyone who sees the photos afterwards.
