I was commissioned as an event photographer to photograph a music event in South Africa. Godskitchen hosted the main stage at the H20 Party in Johannesburg. The brief was to capture the atmosphere, the event from various perspectives, close ups of people enjoying the event and the main stage production.
The South African people were very enthusiastic bunch, managed to get some great natural shots of people enjoying the music. It was quite a unique venue for a large music event as it was part waterpark. After travelling half way around the world however, prepared with only shorts and T-shirts, ironically it started to rain at night then thunder storm. When I left the UK everyone was enjoying the 28c+ temperatures, hottest on record for October! I was blamed for bringing the ‘English weather’ with me a few times!
Didn’t stop everyone enjoying themselves. The rain also made for some interesting photos with the lasers.
Here are just a few of the event photos from both the day and night:
