The art of timeless music photography

Can't stop, won't stop — An obsessive drive to document concerts has given Sacha Lecca unique insight into what makes live music special: chaos, intimacy and a creative force that will never be silenced.

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.
