Hello!

I'm Dave.

I'm a freelance photographer based in the Midlands, UK. After over a decade of experience in live events, working on the fringes of the entertainment industry and a career in marketing and content creation I turned my hand to photography. With my background,  I understand the needs of artists, music brands and event managers when it comes to capturing moments - whether that be simply for the memories, or promotional material.

So far I've been lucky enough to photograph such legends as Alice Cooper, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Johnny Rotten, Jodie Whittaker (Doctor Who) Johnny Depp, Jeff Goldblum, KT Tunstall, The Darkness, Glenn Hughes, Joe Perry, and more.

If you'd like to discuss working together, get in touch using this form, and follow me on Instagram: @daveyrocks

I can't wait to meet you!
