Chontalle Musson;Cassie Henderson EP Cover;Shot during the music video for Seconds to Midnight. Setting a fun party scene that is happening around Cassie, but her world is falling apart.

Chontalle Musson;Laneway Festival Auckland, Chappell Roan crowd;In the crowd of a show is my favourite place to shoot. Really get that feeling like your there just for the artist. Surrounded by screaming fans. The perfect energy.

Chontalle Musson;Ella Monnery Me, Myself & I;Me, Myself & I single cover for Ella Monnery. Shot in a hotel room as part of the single roll out (thanks nzonair) so fun and fresh like like the track and Ella's vibe.

Chontalle Musson;Kaylee Bell Red Dirt Romeo;Big day in the studio with Kaylee Bell before the release of her latest album. Red Dirt Romeo is red in colour and all about those country dirt roads. With the time crunch we lit the studio like it was sunset all in red, and Kaylee playing her guitar. Really rock n roll Nashville.
