I recently had the time of my life photographing Beverley Knight at a live performance she gave at a corporate event held at the Birmingham Hilton Metropole. She was fantastic! Her singing and stage presence were both exceptional. I thank her for providing such great material for my photos.
Beverley Knight
Beverley Knight is known as the “Queen of British Soul” and has been a consistent artist in the UK for over two decades. She has produced several albums that have made it into the top 10 charts, including “Voice: The Best of Beverley Knight,” certified platinum. She has sold over one million albums in the UK alone, with four of them certified gold. Her latest album, “Soulsville,” was released in June 2016 and debuted in the UK’s top 10.
Beverley’s live performances are outstanding, and she has gained quite the following over the years. Many famous fans, including David Bowie, Prince, Stevie Wonder, and Quincy Jones, have praised her talents. She has collaborated on stage and on record with many great musicians, such as Prince, Jamiroquai, Bryan Adams, Ronnie Wood, Carlos Santana, Andrea Bocelli, Jools Holland, Jamie Cullum, Joss Stone, Take That, and Chaka Khan.
Low Light Event Photography
I often get asked how I managed to achieve these fantastic low-light event photos. Practice & experience is the key to knowing the limitations of your equipment.
Modern mirrorless cameras have developed at a ridiculous rate and have made the job a little easier. Inbody, image stabilization is a godsend when using prime lenses. I often shoot handheld at much slower shutter speeds with great results. Another benefit is the ability to use high ISO with low noise.
Fast Glass or primes “professional lenses” with a small aperture of f/1.2 or f1.4 can also help achieve fantastic results. The drawback is a shallow depth of field which can be tricky if there is more than one person in the frame.
