PHOTOGRAPHING MUSICIANS

Musicians are a creative bunch, often with just as many ideas about photography as the photographer. Working with them is like a jam session—full of unexpected moments and spontaneous creativity. Just when you think you’ve got the perfect shot, they’ll suggest a new angle, a different vibe, or bring out an instrument you didn’t even know they had.

Musicians love to improvise, and so do photographers. Sometimes, they’ll pull off a move or bring something into the frame that’s so quirky, you can’t help but join in. Suddenly, that casual portrait turns into something totally unique—half planned, half pure genius.
