Generic Band Photography

>Does anyone know of any good band photographers that don't really implement these over used elements?
Aye, i was once in the pub toilets at the banshee 'avin a whizz because ma friend wanted to hide from the rain last year when I saw the most unique band photo I've ever seen.

Band were against a white backdrop, backlit which added some haze/glare. They're all standing in a line but the singer's a wee bit forward from them Chest/heads only.
Now so far you're thinkin' that it's a wee bit generic but I tell ya it wisnae. The singer was the most in focus but his nose was in focus, no his eyes. The rest of the band were all completely out of focus. Bloody belter of a photo.

I find it's usally just these types of shots or solo portraits of each member. The lesser known band doing an activity photo rarely shows up. Bands know what they want.

Not saying I'm good, but here's a band photo of my friend's band that I took. I've taken photos of them performing live, and I recently shot a music video for them as well.

The lead singer is the guy with the snowflake around himself.

Here's the only one band picture I'm not totally ashamed off.
Quality is shit cause I can't find it on my pc right now, so it's saved from the web.

I think the coroner is still scratching his head.

it defiantly is something different. better? dunno it works for me but there is a reason why generic photo's are generic and why people like us keep making generic photo's even though we hate it.
