A few months back I got a surprise email asking if I'd be interested in capturing a drumming event at Te Auaha. The power of connections, a Faultline Ultra rider had seen my work, and suggested ATPhoto. Thanks so much Narukami Taiko.

I've shot this style of japanese drumming a few times outdoors, but was wondering how three indoor shows would sound. Were they giving out ear plugs for a reason?

The beauty of capturing multiple shows is the opportunity to get to know the moments. Even better if there's the opportunity to move around to capture some different perspectives.

How were the shows, great. A mix of fun uplifting big group performances, mixed with intense, very physical drumming. What a way to celebrate ten years. Thanks for having me along Jesse.
