MMVA’s 2007 - 2007_06_17

I was gone for most of last week, so I’m only finally posting this now! I had the chance to be a photographer at the MMVA’s this year, and wow was it a great experience! I arrived early Sunday morning and was there to take photos of the rehearsals of Billy Talent, Fergie, The Used, Avril and Alexisonfire! My work rented a cool wide angle lens, as well as some wicked zoom lenses, that myself and Wendy (the other MuchMusic photographer) got to use… and now after using one, I can easily put it on my wish list!

There was an insane amount of screaming fans there! WOW! I wasn’t directly on the red carpet, but was in a great spot by the main front doors and Much Environment stage, so I could see all the celebs walk down the road and sign autographs! The highlight of the night was being on the roof of the CHUM CTVglobemedia Building for the Finger Eleven performance. The experience only made me want to learn more about taking concert photos, and forcing myself to use the Manual mode more on my camera. In the set on my flickr, is only a selected few from what I shot that night.. for more photos, check out showmeyours.tv, or muchmusic.com!
