I've had the great good fortune of working with Matthew Hadgraft over the past 5 years both in the studio as well as designing his poster art.

Matt's show posters are some of my favourite designs and I always look forward to working together with Matt and Rhylee (his producer) to create magic and realise their vision.

Matt will be travelling once again in early 2025 to Perth's Fringe World Festival with 2 shows:

𝗘𝗹𝘁𝗼𝗻: 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝗲𝗹: 𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝘆 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗔𝗿𝗲

Both shows are playing Downstairs At the Maj and produced by Faff & Sass Productions so if you're a local or visiting, you should absolutely go and see him.

He's wonderful!

Hello to all of my Burlesque Buddies in Narm.

It's coming up to that time of year that I get contacted regularly by producers/corporates etc outside of the Burlesque Bubble, asking me to recommend Burlesque Acts/Producers etc for end of year gigs.

I usually recommend the right acts for the right occasions but I'd really like to make sure I'm not missing anyone so I have put together a list of contacts/shows/producers (see below) that I can refer to when contacted.

I know that I have probably missed some obvious ones (please don't hate me) or corrections need to be made so please, make yourselves known so I can update this list.

I had the great good fortune of shooting promo for Christie Whelan Browne's newest work 'Life in Plastic' playing now at Chapel Off Chapel.

What an incredible talent she is and what a wonderful piece she has created in collaboration with Sheridan Harbridge. Heartfelt, honest, funny, sad, joyous, everything a Cabaret should be!

'Life in Plastic' has pretty much sold out its season but an additional show has been added this Sunday so get in right now and snap up your ticket for what is one of the best shows I've seen this year x

Friends.

It’s been a hectic month with Melbourne Fringe, The Australian Burlesque Festival and that bothersome episode where I lost access to all my pages for reasons still unknown.

However, I have found some time to update the 'LIVE' section of my website with shows I have worked on recently.

That brings the total number of live shows 3 Fates Media has shot to well over 200 in the past 13 years . . . or if you like big numbers – over one million photos!

So, why am I telling you this . . . . . well, the studio is open again for the following bookings:

• Headshots
• Promo Shots
• Product Photography
and of course . . . .
• Show Photography/Videography

Check out my website and social pages and message me if you want to team up x

I've had the great good fortune of being involved in the journey of this production (photography) from it's earliest form to its current iteration.

'Apocrypha' officially opens tonight at Darebin Arts Centre as part of Melbourne Fringe.

I implore any and all of my friends to go and see it!

It's a masterpiece!

Classed as "Alt-circus for the unholy" it's dance, it's theatre, it's cinema, it's fiction, . . . . . . it's everything I love.

Created by: Mitch Jones (Oozing Future)
Presented by: Melbourne Fringe and Darebin Arts Speakeasy
Produced by: Parrot Ox

With an incredible cast including Adam Malone, Rindi Harradine, Kristian Santic and Chloe Fazikas - Apocrypha is a surreal exploration of desire and counterculture that will linger long after the final curtain falls.

Go see it!

Dates 11th - 19th Oct.

Hey friends!

My beautiful friend the extremely talented Willow J is bringing her latest creative collaboration to Naarm! After 20years of strutting n strippin about in sparkles, sequins, glitter and glam, she has traded that in for a pair of Y-fronts and a black t-shirt to become the screaming front person of the post-punk, neo-pop, theatrically political, slightly asymmetrical, feminist group The BandShe!
🎤 🥁 🎸

After debuting in Adelaide where they blew the roof off, thay are finally ready to show Naarm what they’ve got to scream about!

FOR ONE SHOW ONLY at the Cactus Room (High St, Thornbury) on SUNDAY 6 OCT, at the oh so very punk time of 2pm, they’ll be joined with support acts Maude Davey, and Dead Faeries for an arvo of fresh as f**k raw energy!

The BandShe's want to sell this show out and blow off another roof, so go on…head over to the link and grab yourself (and loved ones) a tik!

Tix start at $15 (Mob), $20 (conc), $25 (full) with option to spend a bit more or quite a bit more (with extra perks) to help get the 4 interstate BandShe members over to Naarm.
(NB. +booking fee)

Hope you can join The BandShe for an explosive arvo where
Music + Butoh + Comedy = PUNK THEATRE!

Get tickets on Humanitix - The BandShe & Guests!!! hosted by Willow J Conway. Cactus Room, 614 High St, Thornbury VIC 3071, Australia. Sunday 6th October 2024. Find event information.

We haven't seen eachother for almost a month so we had a bit of catching up to do . . . . . and we took some pics.

Nellie Noble is a multi-faceted, multi-talented performer and exquisite model.

She's also a good mate!

I've been shooting with Marilyn Mocktail for many years and she never ceases to amaze me with her presence and allure in front of the camera. Such a wonderful model and magical performer.

Had a great time in the 3 Fates Media Kitchen Studio shooting headshots with Tier Ataing. An extremely talented actor and lovely human to boot Tier was wonderful to work with . . . . and the camera absolutely loved him!

Look at this gorgeous, classic "SWISH" shot Mellogamy Muse and I created when she was down in Melbourne recently for the 40 Up On Fire Burlesque Competition.

Mel was a dream to work with and I look forward to seeing her on many more stages around Australia in the coming years!
