Lydia (USA) and Line Up @ Amplifier, 18th January 2012

I can never believe each opportunity until I have photo proof of it. On the 18th of January 2012, I was approved through FASTERLOUDER to take photos for USA band, Lydia, to shoot for their "Paint It Golden" Australian Tour @ Amplifier. First time shooting there, the lights were unbelievable, people were friendly and bands were awesome. Sophie Joy, TV Snow and Place of Indigo lined up to support the band. 

I was so nervous before the show, I'm glad you couldn't see it on the other side of the camera, but I hope the shots were good enough. I was extremely stoked when Lydia uploaded two of my photos onto their page. I was able to take the photos 3 songs into their show, and I couldn't believe how much I didn't need to edit because the stage lights were amazing! 

I have been getting unlimited support from friends and family, and it means a tonne when anyone likes a photo or even takes more than a second to look at it. My dream is not only have the opportunities to take photos of bands that I love, and create everlasting memories of them, but to be able to share an inspiration, an idea or a belief that dreaming is possible when you work hard. 

Thank you so much for dropping by, whether I know you or not, I'm so grateful for it.

CARBONMADE

My Temporary Photography Portfolio, CARBONMADE (Which won't let me upload very many photos)

OR my Facebook Photography Page: JTIONOWIDJAJA PHOTOGRAPHY

So many gigs and events coming up, hopefully I can take lots of photos. It's become this obsession that helps me get through this life.

Sad but true.

FASTER LOUDER

5 years ago, I had stumbled across this website and had occasionally looked at it as a source of information for rock band coming to Australia. In 2010, I had my photo taken with a friend from a Photographer of FasterLouder and I had always wanted to take photos for this site. On New Years 2012, I got accepted by their editor to be a photographer! 

I was totally stoked, My first gig was last night at Norfolk Hotel for three great bands, and my next big one is on Wednesday with a USA band, LYDIA @ Amps. I'm so excited yet nervous at the same time! 

Here is the site to my new published photo album :) 


PS. Today, a band also requested for my photo and video skills! I finally might have enough to pay off this Portrait Course I paid for just recently with Camera Club Australia. Life is becoming the dream.

Northlane


Northlane was amazing on stage and such a feeling to take a photo like this to remember the night when they came to Perth on 15.12.11 :)
