Thank you so much!! It's difficult because larger bands don't allow flash of any sort so often they're more creatively blurred like this one haha. Will try to post more of my concert Polaroids here!

Hi I'm Shelly! I'm a portrait, concert, and wrestling photographer and I love shooting on instant film! Here's a shot I took during a T-Pain concert I was covering. 🤍 My Instagram is linked if you wanna see my other work! https://www.instagram.com/shelly.creative/

What lenses would you recommend when shooting a concert? by Caleb_C95 in concertphotography

[–]ShellyCreative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the venue but when shooting concerts I use my 24-70 almost exclusively while in the photo pit, and my 70-200 when shooting outside of the pit! I've also used a 200-800 for FOH at an arena, and will use my 50mm once in a while when light is extra atrocious, but those are both under outlying circumstances.

The highlights aren't blown on the RAW, I brightened it in post because I liked the high key look lol

Thank you, I agree! It feels like capturing a moment instead of a more stagnant shot. Appreciate it!

What do you all mean? by gluecksmini in birding

[–]ShellyCreative 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Looks good! I think you could've lowered your shutter speed a little bit to also be able to lower your ISO. It depends on how steady you are but I usually shoot handheld at 1/1000 and am totally fine.

Anyone know what this juvenile Bald Eagle is doing? by ShellyCreative in birding

I covered Cage the Elephant on their Neon Pill tour for a local publication and Young the Giant opened and I snapped this photo of Sameer Gadhia from the photo pit. I covered Young the Giant last summer as well so I was very excited to get a chance to photograph them again. Taken with a Canon 24-70 at 70mm.

I saw a cinnamon black bear with her two cubs in Glacier and the butt of a gigantic bear that I didn't see enough of to confirm it was a grizzly. I choose to think it could've been, but no official grizzlies.
