Normally when I photograph and event I have a blog entry up prior to heading down and actually taking photos. Unfortunately I didn’t get around do doing an entry before Friday’s night’s event, so I thought I’d do one now. I went down to Surrey the other day to photograph the ‘Jessie Farrell and Friends’ concert for JRFM. Also playing during the show were Jaydee Bixby, The Higgins, and Chad Brownlee. The event was in support of JRFM’s Basics for Babies!, which is why I offered to help out and snap some photos in support of the cause. Truthfully, it’s been quite some time since I’ve photographed anything, let alone a music concert. I’ve photographed many concerts before, including the BC Festival 150 concert in Victoria, and the 2008 Canadian Juno Awards in Calgary, but nothing locally since last summer probably.

It was a great show, and I’ve just started processing all the photos. You can check out the full set over on Flickr. I still have a lot more to put up, but I’m beat so I’m hitting the sack. My favourite shot so far is this one of Kathleen Higgins. Not sure why I like it, but I just do.

I’m about to get in the car and head out to Surrey. Jessie Farrell is headlining a charity event in Surrey called Basic’s for Babies. JRFM gave me a photo pass for the event, so I’m going to help out the cause by heading down and taking some photos of the event. The show starts at 7:30pm, so I’m hoping to get there a bit early and figure out the logistics of taking photos in a seated concert venue. I’ll post a few photos tomorrow most likely.

Wow, that seems like a title from 24. Anyways, Ryland Haggis was by tonight for a few beers, which was definitely cool, since we’ve been talking about it for a while now. For those of you who don’t know Ryland, he’s an extremely talented photographer who also happens to be an amazing bass player — he’s currently in Jessie Farrell‘s band, and has been touring with her this last year. If you haven’t heard of him, go add him on Twitter, or also check out his professional musician website. Also, make sure to check out Jessie’s website — Jessie’s currently down in Nashville writing some of her next album.
