Anonymous asked: I need advice! Do you think I should buy a Canon 60D and a 50mm f/1.8 OR a Canon 550D and a 50mm f/1.4? It's either expensive body + cheaper lens or cheaper body + expensive lens, and I don't know which one to choose! Keep in mind this is for indoor concert photography, that's why I'm asking you (cause I thought you might know a thing or two about that ;) )

Hi Anon!

I guess it all depends on what you’d prefer. I’m so rubbish with questions regarding gear I don’t have or know all the specs and stuff of. I’ll link you to some stuff that can hopefully give you some advice…

Canon 60D vs 550D vs 7D - which one is better?

I hope that the links above will help you make you decision! Let me know how you go :)

Haha because the editor said ‘i’ll think about it’ regarding wanting coverage for soundwave for his magazine. And then today he emails and says a yes and now we’re waiting for confirmo from the big shots :)

Anonymous asked: any news on shooting soundwave? i have my fingers crossed for you!

Hello kind anon!!!

I just followed up today and hhhhhh. Waiting on word from another person and when that email rolls in, i will most likely go ballistic, like i did on twitter today and you wilk be the first to know. It’s looking good. But i won’t get my hopes up :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Festivals are my phobia and with Soundwave i kind of jumped in with two feet and a ‘oh what the hell,’ didn’t expect anyone to give me this opportunity but ahhh-

Thank you. Have a lovely night

Anonymous asked: will a canon 60d and a 50mm f1.4 be good for a concert photographer's first dslr?

Hello Anon!
That is definitely a perfect combo for concert photography and everything else. I myself started with a 50D and a 50 1.8 and still love that combo to death! You will do so much with the 60D and 50. I wish i’d waited a couple months for the 60D! I just want to film haha
