PotionHead is an Adelaide-based photography and videography project dedicated to capturing the pulse of live music in bold colour and raw energy. Founded by Monica Martin, it has grown naturally from a deep love of both music and photography, blending the two to create evocative imagery that feels as electric as the moment itself.
With a style that thrives on rich colour, dynamic lighting, and movement, PotionHead brings gigs to life, capturing the chaos, the sweat, and the sound in striking detail. The project isn’t just about live shows; it also includes on-location and in-studio photoshoots, as well as documenting the experiences of touring acts, offering an immersive look into the world behind the performance.
PotionHead is all about telling the full story, from the adrenaline of the stage to the quiet, unguarded moments behind the scenes—all through imagery that feels as alive as the music itself. Working with artists including Divebar Youth, Stellie, Blush, Lucinda Grace, Maisie B Band, Cherry Chola, and Nat Luna, the focus is always on capturing the energy and emotion that make live music unforgettable.
