// ABOUT //
I'm a freelance photographer, specialising in bands and live music, now serving on the Art & Music Promotion - Athlone (AMP) counsel as official photographer. Most spare time is spent at live gigs documenting the music scene.
// FOR ALL BANDS //
If you would like your band photographed, please contact me. Live gig shots are the most straightforward, requiring no additional time investment from you, but are not guaranteed to be as usable or appropriate as a photo shoot. For more details, please contact me.
// LIVE GIG SHOTS //
All gigs I've shot are published in the Music Photo archive (or about to be). Go to
http://music.lightholder.com/photography
// PROMOTIONAL SHOOTS //
I'm taking bookings for band shoots, so if you are looking for promotional shots for posters, CD releases or Press Kits, please contact me for more details. There are opportunities for your shoot to be sponsored or free.
// PHOTO AVAILABILITY //
Almost all shots are openly available for bands to use on their Bebo or Myspace profiles. For print resolution photos (for posters, cds, etc.) please contact me.
// USAGE RIGHTS //
I apologise to my Bebo friends for the watermarking. I've had problems with photos being used commercially by people I don't know, so all photos are now watermarked. Contact me for non-watermarked versions.
// TO ALL PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW //
All photos published here, on myspace or at lightholder.com are under copyright. Other sites and people that publish my photos have written permission to do so. Publishing, reproduction, distribution, printing or any other usage of my photos is not allowed without written consent.
I am always willing to let people use my photos, just please ask me, and link back to lightholder.com.
// COMMERCIAL USAGE //
Approval for commercial use is available, and requires a usage agreement and payment for publication rights. To obtain commercial usage rights, please contact me.
// PRINTS //
Almost all of the photos I publish are available as prints. If you are interested in a print, please contact me with the photo you are interested in along with any print size information you already have. I will contact you with details and pricing.

6 weeks ago via MobileHey Kim, long time no see. Hope you're keeping well. Just thinking it'd be great to play in Athlone with Sean and company again. If anything may arise in the near future give us a shout. Thanks!!

20 weeks agohey!
20 weeks agoso i went back onto the site to check it out again and it seems really straightforward to me anyways! just a matter of clicking on the pic to make it bigger, or looking at the blog to bring them up too... but then again I am a complete and utter technophobe so ur prob better off not listening to me!
They really are brill photos though, well done! thanks for the compliment on the paintings aswell, cheers. Im finished college where i was studying it so ill defo be continuing with it, soon anyways!
Just a 'thank you' for the great, if non-music related, pictures that you took for me. You do rock, you know?
20 weeks agohey kim
20 weeks agowow what photos you take
as an artist of the pen and paint myself I am impressed!
Thanks so much for giving us a great review on your site...sadly, times are a changin...we lost our bassist (a mate is kindly filling in) and Im soon to leave Galway in search of my future...good town to party in, but not to carve a future!
Sad that the band is ending but from the beginning we had it tough what with what we play - seems most people only wanna hear what they know and guess we got tired of playin to an unappreciative audience
Dont get me wrong there was a great night or two in metro but aside from that it was often dead.
So...to stop goin on, we play one of our last if not last gig in Sally Longs Rock Bar in Galway July 25th - it should be interesting!
Would love if you could come and shoot us..
Hope alls well - keep up the good work!!
