A couple of years ago I photographed a very talented young violinist called Louisa. Our musicians photo shoot took place in Clapham and we had a lovely time creating some beautiful publicity images. If you&#8217;d like to see photos from that session here&#8217;s the link\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.alexakidd-may.com\/blog\/index.php\/london-musicians-photographer-clapham\/\">Clapham musicians shoot<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Photographing seven fantastic young musicians<\/h2>\n<p>Earlier this year Louisa\u2019s brother Samuel got in touch to organise a musicians photography session. He wanted images of himself, his sister and five of their friends. They were preparing a series of concerts for a music festival and needed some promotional\u00a0photos.<\/p>\n<p>I loved the idea of this challenge and we set about trying to find a convenient date. It was never going to be easy finding a free day for seven busy musicians. But eventually we managed it and arranged\u00a0to meet up in June. We met one lovely warm Sunday morning at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama at the Barbican. The musicians were rehearsing there later in the day, so it was the ideal place for our photography session. Samuel had luckily been able to obtain\u00a0permission to take the photographs at the back of the Guildhall. It was a relief that we didn\u2019t have to worry about getting\u00a0seven musicians and their instruments around the streets of the Barbican.<\/p>\n<h2>I love to get a mixture of formal and informal portraits<\/h2>\n<p>The session began with taking\u00a0some formal portraits of each musician on their own. We then experimented and captured some more fun shots of\u00a0each musician on their own\u00a0and also\u00a0as a group together.<\/p>\n<p>All seven musicians were so lovely to work with and we had a very happy morning together. Once we had everything we needed I left them all to rehearse the afternoon away in the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.<\/p>\n<p>I was delighted to hear a few months later that they very extremely happy with their\u00a0images. I was also pleased that their musical festival had been a huge success!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in booking a musicians photography session please do get in touch. I\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n<p><a
