I'm Donna, a photographer who's having a love affair with country music. Since I'm passionate about both photography and music, it just made sense to pick a career that keeps me actively involved in both. I've been taking photographs for 13 years and I'm still going at it with a passion.
I've been to and keep on attending country music festivals, meeting the stars, taking photographs of the concerts, the crowds and the fun. In 2009, my photo of Liam Brew and Jasmine Rae on tour at the Pioneer Country Music Village was published in Capital News Magazine.That same year, I worked the Tamworth CMF and the Amanda Halloran concert at Caboolture. I covered the concert of Col Finley and took all the photographs for his last album cover, using the pics I took on the Gold Coast shoot.
In 2010, I took the portraits of Tracey Davis, photos of her birthday dinner and her concert at Southport. That year, I covered the Tamworth CMF, Ballina CMF, Redlands-Strawberry Festival, and the Caboolture Urban Festival.
2011 saw me covering the Tamworth CMF and taking the photographs for the album launches of Adam Toms and Connie Kis Andersen, an album shoot for Renee McAlpin, a promo shoot for 8 Ball Aitken, and a calendar shoot for Meet 'n Greet Country. I also covered the concerts of Catherine Britt and James Blundell in Nerang and Jimboomba.
In the course of my love affair with country music, I've worked with Luke O'Shea, Leo Sayer and the Prairie Oysters. I'm the official photographer for Camp Autism events, and for the up-and-coming Melbourne country artist Chris Lee. I'm proud to mention that I was voted Most Popular Photographer of the Meet 'n Greet Country Awards, have been featured in the Bundaberg Local News in the lead up to the launch of the album of Pete O'Brien. The Dayboro News used one of the photos I gave to Seleen McAlister for the fundraising concert to send her to Nashville. This got me appointed as official photographer for the event.
More recently, I took these photographs of the Mud Bulls & Music Festival which has become more and more popular since it started 11 years ago. It's the only festival that includes camping and main concerts at a low price of $250 a person for 4 days and nights. It features the best country musicians and artists with special focus on indie artists. Aside from the reasonable price, I just love the atmosphere and I think the organizers could teach the major festivals a thing or two.
At Donna's Photography, I work with you on all the details to make sure that every picture captures a moment you'll treasure forever.
