Bristol Media Photographer Amango flies to Texas to photograph Muse and U2



Here's the latest press release about my trip to Houston, Texas...

Bristol Media member Amanda Thomas from Amango Photography has just jumped on a place to Houston to shoot Muse and U2 on their current world tours. The commission came very last minute from both Total Guitar Magazine and Rhythm Magazine. Both publications enjoy national and international coverage and are the top sellers in their field. The commission was given at a days notice, with the words ’Can you fly to Texas tomorrow and shoot U2 and Muse for us please?. All the stops were pulled and three intense hours of minute planning ensued in order to make sure it could happen.

Amanda has been a photographer for over ten years and last minute changes are all part of the business, whether sourcing a location for a shoot, making changes to the brief or finding a flight to Texas at short notice. “Working in a creative industry you have to be flexible with your thinking and practice, because the work is like a piece of elastic: moving, flexing and ever-changing and you have to go with the flow.” Amanda says. “I’m really please to be involved with this job and have worked for these magazines for many years. It’s very reassuring when the client says ‘I trust you, now go and take some great shots’. I’m really looking forward to the shoot!”
