Show photographer in Normandy
Kind of Queen at the ‘Beaux Jours’ festival in Alençon.

After a full day’s tourism photo-shoot at Vendeuvre discovering and photographing the Chateau de Vendeuvre, the go karting and the Arpents du Soleil vineyard (yes there is a vineyard in Normandy, surprising isn’t it) for Falaise Tourism I could have simply gone home and rested after a good day’s work. But no, Kind of Queen were performing as part of the ‘Beaux Jours’ event in Alençon.
I’d had the chance to enjoy their concerts before and photograph them and after what seemed an eternity of no concerts I wanted to enjoy a fabulous evening out with a great group of guys who pay homage to the wonderful group Queen, a band that I love since my childhood growing up in England.
My first thought when I discovered they were finally performing again after the long enforce break was just to go to enjoy the concert but the photographer in me meant I could help but want to photograph the concert as well. So I contacted the band and offered to capture the concert.
Wow! Am I pleased that I did?! Oh yes, a fabulous concert organised by Alencon Plage, with great sound and light production Culture KRAFT and supported by the town of Alencon.
Thank you for a great evening Samuel, Hervé, Kevin, Alain and Nicolas.

Here are a hundred of my favourite photos…and if you’re looking for a taster of the talent of these guys scroll to the end to watch a little video of their rendition of ‘Somebody to Love’. This was a spur of the moment capture of one song, by no means a professional production.
