Just checking Saturday's schedule What was meant to be exciting come back is just utter shambles now Both Williams should've just retired gracefully & just do senior invitationals Actually what am I saying? I'll never forget Serena have crowd boo Osaka 1st GS title even if Naomi has forgiven her

Did something today and hope it all works out cos this is a dream 🎾📷

I don't post enough about my photography here - it's become a tennis fan account - but yeah if you have Instagram can you please check my second account out cos the posts really could do with some love🫠 Putting the story here to tease you more☺️ www.instagram.com/p/DaNZOXXimi...

Day 2 @wimbledonltc.bsky.social starts like this Boulter v Grant, Anisimova v Gjorcheska, Keys v Day Serena's comeback is good for the sport but I for one won't make it all about her and will watch where I can. Thankfully can watch some faves right now 🫶🏼

Lunching so have this current @wimbledonltc.bsky.social set up🥰 But can someone tell me why the camera operator has Court 6 like it is and not like Court 14 Btw currently watching Ostapenko v Dart, Putintseva v Maria and Andreescu v Zhang #Wimbledon2026

You probably know I love tennis but did you know that I LOVE @wimbledonltc.bsky.social This is from my insta.... second photo is the tattoo I got on the last day of the Championship in 2024 after a day on Centre Court from Wimbledon Tattoo🎾🍓💉🥰❤️‍🔥

I've gone from 5 to 8 to now 16 acts for tomorrows A Stone's Throw Festival in North Shields This might be what I am doing:

But yeah I've had a great week. I told you about someone I've been a fan of coming onto 10years I think but a recent love I photographed on Monday. Totally different to my usual tastes so worth telling the BlueSky. Here's Eternal Rin. Check her out if you're intrigued by horror gaze-metal music

24hrs ago w last part of journey in torrential rain I got to Leeds for Art School Girlfriend @nathbrudenell.bsky.social headliner IYKYK I'm a huge fan of ASG that I've travelled to Berlin & Chicago to see her & last night confirmed I'll travel more. Luckily most times I get to take a camera too🫠

Not sure if @shura.gg is still using this platform but I had a FB memory pop up from 10 years ago and in that memory I linked it to the domain: hasshurafinishedheralbumyet.com And the domain is up for sale again for Album 4 maybe 🫠

#AboutLastNight I was lucky enough to photograph Lucy Rose at Glasshouse Gateshead and it was one of the most honest, raw and beautiful gigs I've witnessed cos Lucy is just that as a person too. Honestly if you can, go see Lucy Rose live. It's a whole experience of wholesome goodness.

The chrysanthemums I bought 🌼 Apparently this year red shouldn't be worn cos of Fire Horse. I got superstitious so researched that yellow (shades of brown inc) good for monkeys today so I wore those as I bought these. Only one plant of the three with bright yellow flower so I'm doing good so far🧧

Day 6 Part2 #IVW26 at last minute saw me do a bit of another gig. As North East @ivwuk.bsky.social Rep it felt crazy not to visit KU Bar which is 3mins-ish power walk away so I did & lovely Jordan even got me photo access to 'make it when/if I could' so here's a few photos of EEVAH who headlined 💛

Day 6 #IVW26 @ivwuk.bsky.social was huge. As soon as I saw The Georgian Theatre, Stockton announce Pigs x7 for their celebration I knew I had to be there. I was harsh on myself & felt photos weren't my best then article went out & I looked at again & I was kinda wrong. Anyways here's four of them.

My 7th gig but Day 5 #IVW26 @ivwuk.bsky.social I got soulful at another new music venue in Newcastle - Newgate Social -where Manchester based musician hailing from America Nayah Grace did actually grace us with her sensational vocals. A most beautiful evening of raw spine tingling vocals🥰💛

Day 6 I visited one of North East newest venues as part of @ivwuk.bsky.social #IVW26 celebrations and went to Vixen in Hartlepool to witness THREE fresh, vibrant and exciting North East bands and these photos are of headliners House Proud. North East is is thriving. Rest of UK come join us❤️‍🔥💛❤️‍🔥

I got WAIRED on Day 5 (my 7th gig) of #IVW26 celebrations with @ivwuk.bsky.social at Pilgrim in Newcastle on some Nu Jazz from Scottish band Mama Terra and it was a lovely chilled midweek affair. What a way to celebrate not only an independent venue but a soulful one in the heart of the city💛🫶💛

It's official last day of #IVW26 celebrations for @ivwuk.bsky.social and it's my NINTH GIG IN ELEVEN DAYS with them tonight as I head to be official IVW Photographer at Independent in Sunderland for the SOLD OUT Red Rum Club.

24hrs ago I got to see another pre #IVW26 show in the North East and that was The Wran at @thecumberlandarms.bsky.social w promoters F54. Outside was cold as but inside EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING WAS HOT and that's the way the North East does it for @ivwuk.bsky.social #SupportIndependents💛
