Spy Journal 3.0 Filtering the web for you

James and I headed off to the Valley tonight for a most fun photoshoot. Alloneword Bar is part inside and part outside – the back part is a courtyard of wasted space between buildings that has been turned into a funky little arty spot. The walls have been painted with amazing art lit up by spotlights.

The event was organised by the Handful of Fragments Collective, a group whose aim is to showcase young emerging artists, visual, theatric, artists and musicians. Moneth Montemayor is a friend of a friend and the Artistic Director. She is also a guitarist in the band The Mothership. So I got invited to shoot the bands and other activities. James came along to carry my gear, assist with the flashes which we had to keep moving to light up the bands and stage areas and swap out my lenses for me. He also has some great ideas for angles and photo composition.

The following photos are a small representation of the photos from the night. The rest of them are up on flickr in the Alloneword Bar Handful of Fragments Collective Set.
