Wow. There& #39;s times when I think that music photography goes unappreciated, and then there& #39;s journalists like CristĂn who really sees it all.

(when talking about @MagnumPhotos) "snappers had the eye, the talent, and the willingness to follow stories, but also a facility to capture an iconic shot, to keep shooting until they’d got it.". Now this to me is hilarious as the photo that she mentions is my @Hozier shot from..
... @EPfestival this year. I& #39;ll tell you the story of this shot. This was one of the biggest shows of the tour. I had only just started working with the band so I still was v eager to prove myself. The pressure was on. I always want to cover every show from all perspectives...
... And that means running around the whole venue. Literally, running, sports bra n all. I had an inkling that Hozier would get into the crowd during a certain song. I was in the sound tower when he came down off the massive stage, a fair distance away. So I ran...
... I ran hard. I ran through the centre pit that runs from stage to tower (see pic) my foot got caught in a loose cable mound. And I fell. In what felt like slow motion and in front of THOUSANDS of people. I had the camera in one hand and lenses in the other. I came down...
...hard on my knees. Searing pain shot around my entire body. My face burned red with embarrassment as everyone around winced. But up ahead I could see Hozier about to jump the barrier and I thought "fuck it" pulled myself up, ran, hopped on the barrier and shot blindly.
Adrenaline carried me through the last song and off stage. Later, I would hide my bloody and bruised knees backstage while showing everyone what would become my fave Hozier shot of the tour. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đź’•" title="Two hearts" aria-label="Emoji: Two hearts"> Thanks @cristinleach for bringing it all back x

The offending pit run!
