The Sharp :: Music Portraits

Client: The Sharp
Venue: Bakehouse Studios

What a thrill it was to photograph Aussie rock legends The Sharp as they kicked off their tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of their debut album, This is the Sharp. We took to the iconic Bakehouse Rehearsal Studios in Richmond, a spot that’s seen its fair share of rock royalty. The space’s raw, authentic energy was perfect for capturing the band’s signature edge and electric personality.

These photos were about capturing that rock ’n’ roll spirit for advertising and social media, bringing fans the same energy that will hit the stage on tour. In true Sharp style, the band has that unmistakable vibe that blends superb riffs with an infectious sense of fun. The gritty texture of The Bakehouse Studio provided a perfect backdrop to showcase the blend of nostalgia and raw power that defines their music.

And here’s a bit of a personal highlight: I even got to sit in on drums for one of their songs. That’s a bucket list item, tick! Sharing that moment with such iconic musicians was pure magic.

Working with artists who pour their soul into what they do is always special, and The Sharp is no exception. Here’s to an unforgettable tour and the continued legacy of This is the Sharp — long may it inspire and ignite!
