Armed with a Post Graduate Diploma in Photojournalism from Cardiff
University, Tabatha exploded onto the music photography scene in 1997,
shooting her first live gig for the book 'The Prodigy - Adventures with
the Voodoo Crew' by Melody Maker's Martin James. Since then, she's
never looked back...
Setting herself up in the photographic department of EMI Records, she
then went on to build numerous industry contacts, being snapped up by Redferns Music Picture Library soon after. Adding 'studio lighting' to her 'photographic bow' while she was studio manager at Camden's infamous
Beehive Studios, Tabatha was then privileged enough to be taken on as 2004 UK Tour Photographer for Rock 'n' Rolling legends, Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Extremely hazy, but never lazy, festival-filled summers followed in the
shape of Glastonbury, V, Reading and Bestival, culminating in the 2005 South by South West, Austin Texas shoot feature for the Sunday Times, with fresh-faced newcomers, Kaiser Chiefs.
Award ceremonies such as The Nationwide Mercury Music Prize and the annual Charity Awards have provided Tabatha with yet more F-stopping glory, as well as award winning hair shoot images for Toni & Guy, and promo shots for Racoon Hair Extensions which have lead to a plethora of fashion and corporate portrait sessions, encouraging her to set up her own personal photographic studio in Brighton.
Tabatha welcomes commissions from all aspects of her photographic trade. Her music pictures are represented by www.gettyimages.com.
