Live music, events & sport, shot like cinema.


UK · Europe · Worldwide

(01) Introduction

For over a decade I’ve photographed the moments people come for: the first chord, the final lap, the room going quiet. For artists, festivals, venues and brands, across the UK and beyond.

I’m Will Bailey, a photographer based in Hampshire. I cover live music, festivals, corporate events, motorsport and brand activations, with every shoot built around your brief.

I’m Will Bailey, a commercial photographer covering live music, events, sport and brands. Over the past decade I’ve photographed festivals like Boardmasters and Parklife, race days at Royal Ascot, GT racing and brand activations for Peroni and Zeekr, and stood in as Gorillaz’s tour photographer in Cardiff.

I work across Southampton, London and the whole of the UK, and travel throughout Europe and worldwide. Every shoot is built around the brief, with images ready for press, social, marketing and partners. Explore music photography, event photography, sports photography and photography for brands.
