there usually isn't a clear path on how to break into the music industry as a photographer when you're first starting out, especially given how difficult it is to get access to shows and concerts. one of the first stumbling blocks for me in my journey as a concert photographer was figuring out how to get photo passes for access to shoot my favorite artists and bands.
in this video, i wanted to share some of the tips that i've learned since then for how to get a photo pass, including how to cold email, who to email, and how to find the appropriate artist contacts. i'll also be making separate videos on how to email for a photo pass when you're on assignment for a publication, and how to get a photo pass without working for a publication, so stay tuned for those videos in the next few weeks :)
while i've had the opportunity to work directly for artists and shoot for publications since, i got access to shoot my first shows mostly by emailing artist teams for photo passes, so the advice i'm sharing in this video on how to become a concert photographer is based on my own experience breaking into the music industry.
