The art of timeless music photography
For a lot of people, photography is a ‘way in’ to any situation, a means of connecting with other people. But for me it was also a barrier.
I used to be quite shy, and still am to a degree, so to have a camera with me meant I could immerse myself in situations without necessarily having to talk one-on-one.
My parents are both fashion photographers, covering shows primarily from the end of the runway. They’ve been doing that since the ’80s and as their business grew, I started to help out.
