    Stevie Wonder Plays The O2 Arena

    60 seconds. A single minute to shoot the legend that is Stevie Wonder - by far the shortest amount of time I've had to shoot an artist. Even Madonna gave us three songs.
    To be fair I was quite grateful for the minute after missing out on photographing on his first night here yesterday, due to having a series of misfortunes.
    Having had the advantage of seeing the photos from other photographers of the show, it became clear they couldn't get a clear shot at him at the piano, so we spoke to Stevie's brother, who was briefing the photographs and he arranged for us to get a higher vantage point to shoot from to capture him at the piano. 60 seconds actually proved enough time (if you can get a clear shot, it doesn't need much time to get some decent frames), but it was vital we got him at the piano, so in some ways it worked in my favor missing the opening night's show.
