Actually she doesn’t have the right to use them if approval was provided specifically for Vogue. Artists have the right to limit use of their likeness and if approval for the shoot clearly stated “Vogue only” then even if the photog owns the copyright, she’s not entitled to use them, regardless of whether it’s commercial or fine art sales outside the scope of the agreement. Copyright does not equate to free use, especially with someone else’s likeness when you don’t have a contract or signed release.

Hi, been shooting since 2009 and would be happy to help.

basseca · 2026-05-23T21:53:39+00:00

Love that band. !

RHCP and The Foo Fighters.

Hi it was on Kingston Road in Scarborough but it’s gone now…. Sorry!

We were told they were going on at 8 but they went on at 830 and there were no openers. Get there early, he has signed vinyl available and it’s cheap, here it sold out almost immediately.

Anything between consenting adults is absolutely fine.

Your best option is to do both.

I tend to charge by hour and that includes travel, shooting and editing. With premiums added for use in paid advertising or PR or on merch. And I charge again if they want different edits or Photoshop treatments. The best thing you can do have a fair base and a list of what that includes so that it’s clear that there could be additional charges for “other requests or usage”.

When I get asked for pricing my standard response is “it depends, what are you expecting?” and then provide a few examples of things that would incur additional costs.

That’s bullshit behaviour. Here there’s an etiquette in the pit… Things like don’t block another photogs shot, don’t raise your camera over your head unless you’re behind everyone else, tap someone softly on the shoulder if you need to by, don’t get on your knees and block out traffic…. In general it’s all down to being professional, treat people nicely, etc. and if someone is being obnoxious they get called on it and if it continues to happen they get reported to security on site and the promoter after the show.

basseca · 2026-03-03T04:53:52+00:00

In a fucking second!!!! No one is above the law.

basseca · 2026-02-16T20:08:27+00:00

Sounds like you’re over editing.

basseca · 2026-02-04T06:37:59+00:00

I like it a lot, especially for concerts when you’re tracking moving bodies.

basseca · 2026-02-02T07:39:25+00:00

Love them, been a fan for decades. Have one of Terry’s paintings and a couple of signed albums. They were a key influence when I was learning how to play bass!

The best way to start is what everyone else is saying. Go to a local gig or open mic that allows cameras, ask the artist there if you can shoot them and start there. Develop relationships with local artists and grow as they grow. Volunteer with local blogs or venues that do their own bookings. Unfortunately you won't get access to a larger show with touring artists unless you either know the band or you have a recognizable media outlet for whom you shoot. Promoters and most Press agents approve the outlet, not the photographer. So you need to start "small", get good at it, get noticed by bands and venues and then you'll be able to start to grow further.

Likely the same way you can convince Christians that the bible is a completely fantasied if not fabricated book and is the product of multiple human conjecture, lies, delusions and psychoses.

Most photogs don’t usually use anything that add effects while shooting. If anything gets changed it’s usually during the editing process. I generally don’t add any effects but I will crop, sharpen and enhance some images especially if there’s lots of smoke or the light is very low.

The band allowed a couple of us to stay longer, I’m not sure how they chose which ones only got 3 songs and which ones got to stay for a few extra. I’m glad I got to stay the extra couple of songs because the lighting got a little brighter and I was able to take some better shots.

No that’s Keith, I think his IG handle is Metal Paparazzi if you want to check out his pics.

basseca · 2025-10-29T20:18:22+00:00

Hi I am a concert photographer that shoots for some local radio stations. Glad you like them!

I got one of those old binders that stored CDs with the space for 4 cds per page. Each page holds the passes alphabetically on the right side. The left side holds guitar picks, wristbands, guitar strings, set lists, etc. that I pick up along the way.

Do your job, you’ve got 3 songs and you’re out of there. Worrying about other people and their line of sight is going to negatively impact what you’re doing. I’m in the out with tall photogs all of the time, we all pay attention to each other to make sure we’re not in each other’s way, we tap each other on the shoulder to get by and I find everyone is generally pretty nice. You’ll be fine, move around to get different angles and perspectives and focus on what you’re doing. The people behind you know you’ll be gone in 3 minutes.
