Concert Photographers I follow

When I first got into concert photography I had no idea where to start, but through some searching and a little social media (mainly Twitter) I came across some of who have been come the concert photographers I religiously follow now.

It’s not just because of their quality of work either (though it’s outstanding) it’s because each of these shooters really believe in supporting the concert photography community by sharing tons of tips and tricks on their blogs, actually being willing to talk via twitter and so much more.  They have really been an inspiration to me!

Philip is Freelance Photographer, Founder & Co-owner of Rapzilla.com. His coverage is all about Urban and hip-hop shows. There are a number of unique shooting issues when it comes to this style of music and this is the guy who can help you out with that.

These aren’t all the concert photographers out there who are more then willing to help out and are putting great work out there. These are just some of the folks that I’ m in pretty constant contact with who keep me challenged and striving to be the best concert photographer I can be.
